Description

Available for a July 15 move-in.

246 Bergen Street is a landmarked Italianate-style townhouse dating from 1855 that's been restored and renovated by the present owners to an incredible standard, drawing focus to the home's original integrity through design-oriented modern touches. Spanning three floors, the townhome includes five bedrooms, three wood-burning fireplaces and a 50' deep landscaped garden.

One enters on the parlor level which is a grand and open space at 20' wide and offers ceiling heights of nearly 11' and a rare front-to-back open floor plan with graciously designated spaces for each living and dining. Wood-burning fireplaces serve as the centerpiece of both rooms and a chic kitchen renovation completed in collaboration with renowned furniture designer Pali Xisto Cornelsen offers stunning teak finishes and a suite of top-end appliances by Wolf and Sub-Zero. Access to the private garden is also located here, as well as a powder room for guests.

Up the immaculately restored original staircase, a generous principal suite level occupies the entire second floor. The suite includes a generous walk-in closet, a sitting or exercise room, a spacious principal bath with a deep soaking tub and walk-in shower, and yet another wood-burning fireplace. With the principal bedroom overlooking the quiet garden below, this level is a tranquil refuge.

The top level includes three additional bedrooms, a gracious foyer space which might easily be converted to a home office or play space, and a laundry room. A central heating and air system, stunning original crown moldings, restored original hardwood floors and exposed wooden beams create a home of ideal comfort and quintessentially New York period details.
