Description

With 29 feet of frontage, including a curb cut, this fabulous 9,000 square foot home features double height ceilings, six outdoor spaces, a private covered parking spot, and an elevator that services the basement to roof deck.
Step in off of charming Downing Street to an "open air" garage, that could be used as a garage, a front garden or party space too, with storage.

Beyond the garage is the ground floor duplex that could be a perfect guest apartment, art studio, or company headquarters OR it can be combined with the rest of the house into one magnificent single family home. (If part of a single family home the ground floor would make an amazing kitchen/great room open to the back garden.)

This dramatic great room has plenty of space for both a living and dining area, as well as direct access to the tranquil garden. Also on this floor is the large chef's kitchen, as well as a bonus room that has an en-suite bathroom and washer/dryer. The mezzanine level features three oversized bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The adjacent, open kitchen boasts a 4 burner Garland stove with griddle, 48" Miele refrigerator/freezer, two sinks, two dishwashers, and a Gaggenau hot plate.

Up a stunning, curved architectural staircase is the 3rd floor, which currently has two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a large office/den area with three built-in desks and tons of storage that is open to the great room below. Both bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, built-in desks  and the larger bedroom has access to a private terrace.

The fourth floor is dedicated to the primary suite and boasts a wrap-around terrace with tall mature plantings and a wooden fence for privacy .
