A Rare 20-Foot-Wide Townhouse on a Bright Park Block

Set on one of the neighborhood's widest park blocks, this exceptional 20-foot-wide townhouse presents a rare opportunity to create a wonderful home of remarkable scale while retaining meaningful income-producing apartments.

With its generous proportions, soaring ceilings, original architectural character, private south-facing garden, multiple exposures, and unusually broad footprint, the house possesses the qualities that distinguish truly special New York townhouses. The current configuration also offers tremendous flexibility for an owner seeking the freedom of a substantial private home with the added benefit of rental income.

The house can be delivered vacant with the exception of one rent-stabilized unit on the 3rd floor rear, whose tenant has expressed interest in a buyout.

The principal residence occupies the parlor and garden levels, creating an expansive, gracious triplex that flows naturally from formal entertaining spaces to private quarters and the garden beyond.

The garden level is particularly inviting, with a beautifully renovated kitchen centered around a generous breakfast bar and outfitted with stainless-steel appliances. A sophisticated dining room, framed by a decorative fireplace and custom built-ins, opens through a wall of sliding glass doors to the private south-facing garden-an idyllic extension of the living space and a rare luxury in the city.

A separate living room with another decorative fireplace adds to the sense of scale and grandeur. Also on this level is a bedroom with a full en-suite bath and direct access to the garden, together with an additional full bathroom.

Above, the parlor floor is defined by nearly 12-foot ceilings and an extraordinary sense of volume. The primary bedroom enjoys its own en-suite bath, complete with a glass-enclosed shower, double vanity, and washer/dryer. A second exceptionally large bedroom is reached through a dedicated home office and adjoining powder room, offering a flexible suite that could easily accommodate guests or a sophisticated work-from-home arrangement.

The unfinished basement provides substantial additional storage and utility space, with access from both the garden and beneath the stoop. Its generous footprint offers numerous possibilities for enhancing the functionality of the house and supporting the rental residences above.

The upper floors comprise four additional residences, creating a compelling income component without compromising the grandeur and privacy of the owner's triplex.

These include:
  • a south-facing, rent-stabilized studio
  • a generously proportioned duplex featuring two bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths
  • a gracious one-bedroom residence with a private terrace
  • an exceptional full-floor, top-floor residence offering two bedrooms and two baths
The result is an unusually versatile townhouse: a substantial private residence with the scale and character to become a truly exceptional home, coupled with an existing income stream and multiple possibilities for future configuration.

For those seeking the rare combination of width, volume, outdoor space, architectural presence, and investment potential, this is an extraordinary townhouse opportunity in a coveted park-block setting.
