Located near New York City landmarks like Gramercy Park and Union Square, this 20-foot-wide home at 305 East 18th Street sits on a picturesque and historic townhouse block. The 3,200-square-foot, four-story home, asking $5,250,000, is currently configured as a live-work setup, with offices on the garden floor. If you don’t need the workspace (or the rental income), convert the property to a single-family home with ease.
Ascend a classic brownstone stoop to the home’s parlor floor, where you’ll find grand high ceilings and dramatic period details like original crown moldings, marble mantels, and an original wood balustrade and banister connecting to the upper floors.
The parlor floor living area includes a living room and a colorful tiled kitchen anchored by a hefty prep island. At the back is a tiled sunroom that opens onto a narrow patio through tall glass doors. Below, a lower patio provides outdoor space for summer entertaining.
The home’s third floor holds a luxurious primary suite. A renovated en-suite bath joins a dressing room large enough to be a second bedroom, and a private office.
On the top floor are three more bedrooms and a full bath. Bathrooms have been renovated in a simple, vintage style
Back down at the garden level, private office space includes three separate rooms, a half bath, and laundry facilities. From here, you can also access the rear patio.
