IN CONTRACT - While you can easily go to Central Park from this gem of a townhouse located on 64th Street off Park, there are days and evenings when you just want to stay in. That is when you will delight in opening the doors on to your private enchanted garden, just beyond your elegant living room.

This 20ft. residence was built back in 1881 and was occupied by one family from the turn of the century through l968, when it was purchased by the present owner. In 1941, the house was restructured as a two-family dwelling, but it can easily be converted back to a one-family residence. The house stands out in this elegant neighborhood for its wisteria vines which grace the stone facade from street level all the way to the top.

Upon entering, you are greeted by the feeling of open space. The huge windows on every floor create a very special light which permeates throughout. The ground floor living room with its elegant fireplace faces the lush oasis of your very own garden.

The parlor floor, above, features two large rooms with 11'2 ceilings. These rooms can be redesigned as spectacular entertainment space if the house is used as a one-family home, or used as bedrooms with baths if kept in their present state.

At present, the upper triplex is a self-contained, airy, well-lit, 3,600 sq.ft. space featuring a large living room and a dining room (with fireplaces) as well as 6 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. While the triplex is presently occupied, it will be delivered vacant.

This townhouse has limitless possibilities; bring your architect and make this historic home yours.
