415 East 50th Street is a meticulously renovated, four-story plus basement home of approximately 3,510 square feet (4,370 sq. ft. including basement), set on a quiet, Beekman Place area block. It is 19.42' wide, and built 45' deep on a 100' lot. Upstairs is the grand living room with an 11'5' ceiling accentuated by the original, dramatic crown moldings and three stunning, south-facing mahogany windows graced by the restored, original shutters. It has a beautifully designed library/family room with gas fireplace and built-in wet bar, and five bedrooms with 9'5' ceilings. The ground floor, with radiant heating throughout, has a beautiful formal dining room enhanced by a wall of bookcases and gas fireplace. It has a large, chef's windowed eat-in kitchen with Wolf and Subzero appliances, a pantry, and a powder room. Lastly, you will discover a stunning garden room (screened in during the summer but enclosed with a wall of windows during the winter) which opens into the lushly planted 39' deep garden with its magnificent, 120-year-old magnolia tree. A small garden with trees also graces this home's front entrance. The house has 3.5 baths, all with Waterworks fixtures.
When the current owners purchased this home in 2013, it had been untouched since 1941. By mid-2015, they had completed a renovation that included new supporting steel beams, new electrical and mechanical systems, new roof, windows, floors, central air conditioning and most plumbing. In 2021, yet additional renovation work was done. The owners' aim throughout has been to restore the original design and integrity of this 1899 turn-of-the-century home.
A few additional details of this finely restored townhouse are heated wiring on the roof to prevent damage from ice and snow, a water sensor installed to cut off water flow should it sense a leak, and abundant closet space and storage. It has 'conservation-quality' solid mahogany windows, with brass chains and glass made to replicate the glass of old, installed in the five parlor floor stately windows. Some finishing decor includes Ann Morris sconces, Ann Sachs tiles, William Morris wallpaper, and a formal dining room graced with antique, 1930's silver Chinese tealeaf wallpaper.Draft sale description
