Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Serhant.
A private garden is a real asset in Manhattan, and this townhouse has one at the rear, along with a front garden. Having both gives you a place to sit outside and a place to host, which is harder to find in a house with this footprint.
The house is 20 feet wide and spans five floors and about 4,700 square feet, with five bedrooms and four bathrooms. The 12-foot ceilings give the main rooms a sense of volume and leave room for furniture arrangements you might not otherwise get. Five active fireplaces add warmth to the rooms, and the separation between floors gives each level its own purpose, though you'll be on the stairs every day.
The kitchen is set up for everyday cooking and for entertaining, and the bathrooms are finished in marble. There's a washer and dryer in the unit, a dishwasher, and central air for year-round comfort, so the daily routines stay inside the house.
The 145 St station is about 4 minutes away on foot, with the A, B, C and D trains, and the 1 train is about 7 minutes away. St. Nicholas Park is about 3 minutes away, and Hamilton Grange National Memorial is about 4 minutes on foot.
