Ova izvanredna povijesna kuća, Symphony Townhouse, smještena je na jednom od najprestižnijih blokova New Yorka. Izvorno izgrađena 1872. godine od strane Johna Praga, ova izvrsna nekretnina prošla je zapanjujuću transformaciju, spajajući šarm svojih viktorijanskih korijena s elegancijom neo-džordžijanske fasade, koju je preoblikovao poznati arhitekt R.D. Graham. Fasada nekretnine je izvanredna zahvaljujući restauraciji majstora iza Katedrale Svetog Ivana Božanskog.

Prostrana više od 6,000 četvornih stopa i smještena na parceli od 2,008 četvornih stopa, kuća uključuje pet spavaćih soba i više od šest kupaonica. Nakon ulaska u Symphony Townhouse, goste toplo dočekuje grijani pločnik od plavog kamena. Unutra, grandioznost predsoblja, ukrašena ručno oslikanim zidnim oblogama, postavlja ton za raskoš unutar.

Trospratno ima drvene podove u Versailles stilu, stropove visoke 13,5 stopa, te knjižnicu koja zadržava svoje izvorne borove drvo iz 1872. godine, osvijetljenu brončanim lustrom iz ranih 1800-ih. Velika dnevna soba sadrži prilagođene lažne Fragonarde, koncertni klavir i venecijanski luster. Bar od američkog oraha Belle Epoque, s vrhnjem od francuskog kristala Lalique, nudi izvrstan prostor za zabavu. Blagovaonica, okupana prirodnom svjetlošću iz velikih prozora, ukrašena je provansalskim ručno oslikanim tapiserijama iz 1750-ih, pažljivo restauriranim od strane Metropolitan Muzeja. Tu se nalazi kuhinja u francuskom seoskom stilu s prostorom za objedovanje, podrum za vino kapaciteta 300 boca, osam kamina i veliki stepenište koje prolazi kroz kuću, povezujući sve razine.

Uzletite velikim stepeništem ili se odvezite liftom kako biste otkrili gornje spratove. Treći sprat nudi tri spavaće sobe, svaka s vlastitom kupaonicom i prostranim ormarima. Glavna spavaća soba nalazi se na četvrtom spratu, pružajući elektronske krovne prozore, prilagođeni zvučni sustav i pristup terasi na krovu—nedvojbeno kruna ove kuće. Duga 20 stopa, ova elegantna terasa obasjana suncem ima podove od plavog kamena i mramora, sustav za otapanje snijega i fontanu osvijetljenu svjetiljkama. Jednostavno je magična.

Smještena u srcu Upper East Side-a, ova kuća je blizu svjetski poznatih restorana, trgovina, kulturnih znamenitosti i parkova. Bogata povijest i zajednica ovog kvarta odražavaju se u visokim standardima održavanja koje podržava udruga ulice.
