About This Property
Located on a quaint, tree-lined block of Greenwich Village, 39
Charlton Street is a truly special offering. Built in 1827, this is
a 25-foot-wide grand scaled Federal style home of epic proportions
with a 49-foot-long garden. Commended by the Landmarks Preservation
Commission as one of the most well-preserved examples of
neoclassical architecture, every aspect of this home has been
delicately maintained to its original splendid grandeur. On
the Parlor floor, a sweeping foyer makes a profound first
impression, boasting 12 ceilings and original plaster moldings.
Front and rear parlors on this level serve as optimal entertaining
spaces, each with elements of old world glamour that are a
testament to the time period in which the home was constructed.
Yet, it is easy to imagine modern elements being added to bring
this home graciously into the 21st century. Original details such
as floor to ceilings windows, wood burning fireplaces with opulent
marble mantles, plaster moldings and built in bookshelves. Light
streams in a sunny eat-in kitchen through a bay window, and
attached patio overlooks the home s large, enchanting private
garden, with peonies and roses abound. The third and fourth
floors of 39 Charlton Street are home to five grand scale bedrooms
and two full bathrooms. Each of the bedrooms retains exceptional
period details and beautiful, original hardwood floors. All are
filled with an abundance of natural light, and three of these
bedrooms have wood burning fireplaces. Both floors present a
balance of private and common living spaces, the third floor has a
separate roof terrace, optimal for outdoor seating, and the fourth
floor has a second living room. Either could easily be reimagined
as a designated master floor. The garden level is an idyllic
harmony of indoor and outdoor townhouse living with exposed white
beams and an additional fireplace. Two sets of French doors open to
an expansive garden-- a private sanctuary in your own backyard. A
brick patio provides room for outdoor separate seating in this
bucolic setting. This floor is accessible by separate entrance if
desired, and features three spacious bedrooms, and one and a half
baths. A rich history lies behind this charming row of red
brick townhouses developed between 1820 and 1829. In the late
1700s, the area was known as Richmond Hill and a great Georgian
mansion built for Major Mortier was erected on a hill over 400 feet
high. Many prominent United States historical figures used the
Richmond Hill mansion. This included George Washington as
headquarters during the Revolution and Aaron Burr as a personal
residence for lavish entertaining. Ultimately John Jacob Astor took
control over the mansion which was moved and planned the
development over the land. Because the development of such a large
area was controlled by one party, not even in Greenwich Village or
Brooklyn Heights can one find such an excellent state of continuity
of period and preservation of these Federal and Greek Revival
houses. It was here that the simultaneous construction of these
townhouses began, each built to the same precise standards.
The manager has listed the unit size as 4204 square feet.
