Description
Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac near Riverside Park, this Charleston Green Renaissance Revival townhouse combines historic architecture with extraordinary craftsmanship. Built in 1893 and restored by architect Joseph Pell Lombardi, the home offers approximately 4,500 square feet with soaring ceilings, original fireplaces, and radiant natural light.
Every detail tells a story—from the Parisian dining-car glass inset in the kitchen cabinets to the hand-laid backsplash and floors identical to those used in Prada’s downtown flagship. The dining room’s chandelier was a prototype for those later installed in the Waldorf Towers, adding a note of provenance and glamour.
Currently configured as a two-family residence, the garden level is presently utilized as a doctor’s office, offering the option to receive income or to convert it easily into a one-bedroom apartment—or seamlessly reintegrate it into the main house. A rare opportunity to own a piece of New York history infused with artistry, elegance, and soul on one of the Upper West Side’s most coveted blocks.
