CONTRACT SIGNED One Family Featured in House Beautiful A classic 4 story 21' wide brownstone circa 1870 was gut renovated, reconfigured and carefully restored in 2011 by Baxt Ingui Architects creating their signature long lasting, well crafted and visually timeless home. Distinguished by all the modern comforts such as state-of-the-art kitchen and bathrooms, dual zone HVAC system, large wine cellar, communication center and landscaped back yard, this home epitomizes harmony of 19th century architecture and contemporary lifestyle. It was featured on the cover of House Beautiful in May 2013. Welcome to a delightful and grand parlor floor with long views from front to back, high ceiling, restored original flooring, crown and baseboard molding, wood burning fireplace with marble mantle and pocket doors that open to the large formal dining room in the back with a marble decorative fireplace. The large open space concept was further elaborated when it came to envisioning the luxurious master suite. Every detail was carefully selected by the owners and the design team to achieve the exceptional task of using the entire floor above the parlor. Installing a T-bar in place of bearing walls accomplished the vision and distinct areas were designated for sleeping, sitting and for the alcove library/office area. Paying homage to the home's 19th Century heritage, the spa-like master bathroom was fitted with a Margaux footed tub from Waterworks plus separate glass shower, double marble vanity, Carrara marble wainscoting and Walker Zanger mosaic tile above the radiant heated floor. Custom made large dressing room completes this rare master retreat. The top floor has two large and sunny bedrooms, each with custom walk-in closet plus a full bath. There is a convenient laundry room with side by side Bosch washer/dryer with sink and storage. Huge skylight over the staircase brings in a blaze of light. The garden level can be accessed internally or under the stoop through a spacious mud room providing a private entrance to the guest room. The open kitchen with informal dining and sitting room face the lush back yard with a wall of floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors. There is also a full bath on this floor. The chef's kitchen was thoughtfully laid out for efficiency with creamy accent cabinets and brushed nickel pulls. The island and countertops are covered with elegant granite. The appliances are: 48 BlueStar Garland Range, a Liebherr refrigerator, a Miele dishwasher and a Wolf under-counter microwave. A new dumb waiter connects the kitchen to the formal dining room. The sizable south facing landscaped garden is fenced for privacy and contains a newly built grill and outdoor cooking area with granite top cabinets. An irrigation system is installed. There are new mechanicals and ample storage space in the basement plus the wine cellar. A communication center is programmed to control the security system through wall panels on each floor and the 4-zone RTI-based audio system integrated with a Sonos music. The location is in close proximity to Smith & Court Street dining and shopping as well as parks and transportation.
