Ova izvanredna povijesna kuća, Symphony Townhouse, smještena je na jednom od najprestižnijih blokova New York Cityja. Izvorno izgrađena 1872. godine od strane Johna Praga, ova izvanredna nekretnina prošla je fascinantnu transformaciju, spajajući šarm svojih viktorijanskih korijena s elegancijom neo-georgijanske fasade, koju je preuredio renomirani arhitekt R.D. Graham. Fasada nekretnine je izvanredna zbog restauracije koju su izveli majstori iza Katedralne crkve svetog Ivana Božanskog.

Obuhvaća više od 6,000 četvornih stopa i zauzima parcele od 2,008 četvornih stopa, kuća uključuje pet spavaćih soba i osam kupaonica. Po ulasku u Symphony Townhouse, goste toplo dočekuje grijana bluestone staza. Unutra, veličanstvenost predsoblja, ukrašenog ručno oslikanim zidnim oblogama, postavlja ton za raskoš unutar.

Podna ploha s parlora ima Versailles drvene podove, stropove visoke 13,5 stopa i biblioteku koja zadržava svoje izvorne borove drva iz 1872. godine, osvjetljenu brončanom lustrom iz ranih 1800-ih. Velika dnevna soba ima prilagođene lažne Fragonard slike, grand klavir i venecijansku luster. Amerikanac orah bar iz Belle Epoque, ukrašen stropom od Lalique francuskog kristala, nudi izvanredan prostor za zabavu. Trpezarija, okupana prirodnim svjetlom iz velikih prozora, ukrašena je provansalskim ručno oslikanim tapiserijama iz 1750-ih, pomno restauriranim od strane Metropolitanskog muzeja. Tu su i kuhinja u francuskom seoskom stilu, vinska podrum od 300 boca, osam kamina i veličanstvene stepenice koje se protežu kroz kuću, povezujući sve nivoe.

Popnite se veličanstvenim stepenicama ili uzmite dizalo kako biste otkrili gornje katove. Treći kat nudi tri spavaće sobe, svaka s en-suite kupaonicom i dovoljno prostora za ormare. Glavna spavaća soba se nalazi na četvrtom katu, pružajući elektroničke sky-lightove, prilagođeni zvučni sustav i pristup terasi na krovu—neostvariva kruna ove kuće. Long 20 stopa, ova elegantna terasa okupana suncem ima podove od bluestona i mramora, sustav za otapanje snijega i fontanu osvijetljenu lanternama. Jednostavno je čarobna.

Smještena u srcu Upper East Side-a, ova kuća je blizu svjetski poznatih restorana, trgovina, kulturnih znamenitosti i parkova. Bogata povijest susjedstva i zajednice odražava se u visokim standardima održavanja koje održava udruga ulice.

Sve brojke su približne.
