This architectural gem crafted by the world-renowned duo Delano and Aldrich circa 1930, stands as a testament to timeless elegance combined with modern sophistication. The 8-story Neo-Georgian masterpiece stands out on the East 78th Street idyllic tree-lined block for its iconic facade-a curved marble staircase and iron fence that complements the home's red brick, trimmed in limestone, but that is just the beginning of its story. Inside, the grandeur continues with a French-inspired elliptical staircase. The home boasts six fireplaces, original French paneling, hardwood floors, and intricately carved marble mantels-all thoughtfully restored to preserve the essence of the 1930s. Double exposures and floor-to-ceiling windows bathe the home in natural light, and the property also includes multiple outdoor terraces and a private basketball court. The house has undergone a complete gut renovation, ensuring that while its original detailing is preserved, it is equipped with state-of-the-art amenities including central air, advanced security systems, and integrated smart home features for lighting, high speed internet, and sound. The townhouse features 9 bedrooms and 12 bathrooms, all outfitted with radiant heat floors, ensure comfort in every corner. The property's architectural integrity is highlighted by its magnificent scale and grandeur, with many principal rooms enjoying double exposures. Outdoor spaces are thoughtfully integrated, including a private garden off the first level, charming terraces off the dining room and 7th floor, and a sun-drenched roof deck. A chef's dream, the large kitchen features custom cabinetry, top-of-the-line stainless appliances, and a spacious dining area, making it perfect for both everyday living and grand entertaining.
