This five story 1825 South Street Seaport townhouse on a lovely cobblestone street is the exceptional "one of a kind" home that you have been searching for! Each finish and fixture was carefully selected - and in most cases was reclaimed from similarly historic properties - and everything is of the highest quality. The home is sun-flooded through oversized south facing windows with an open staircase bringing light throughout the interior of the home. The chef's kitchen features a custom designed La Cornue range, appliances by Sub-Zero and Miele, and a vintage double sink.
The massive wide-planked floors and ceiling beams were reclaimed from an 18th century barn. The centerpiece of the full-floor master bath is a freestanding soaking tub, however the black apothecary cabinet that was retrofitted with an antique marble sink is also a "show-stopper." The bath also features a double steam shower. There is, of course, central air and heat, and an in-unit washer dryer. The rooftop garden affords glimpses of ships' masts on the East River. An office with a half bath on the ground floor allows you to "work from home" with just the right amount of separation. Please contact us for a private showing - this home must be seen to be truly appreciated.
