The project
included the renovation of the row house, the restoration of the 2nd
floor windows and front area, and the design of new interiors for a
luxurious single-family residence. The one piece fixed window at the
2nd floor, which was a 1935 alteration, was removed and replaced with
the three pair of wood doors as an interpretation of its original
design. All historic features of the interiors, including the winding
historic stairs and balustrade, fireplaces, wood window gates and
moldings, were restored.This
4,350 SF townhouse was renovated as a single-family residence
accurately to its original design. With its full cellar, basement and
three floors, the space is designed to house a family suite with
kitchen, dining and living rooms, formal living room, 3 bedrooms, 3
bathrooms, 2 powder rooms, study, and pool room. It has 400 SF of
outdoor space, which includes a rear garden and a balcony, which is
part of the master bedroom suite. The building also include a glass
addition that opens up to a planted garden at the rear, 2 fireplaces,
skylights, Christopher Peacock kitchen cabinets, and closets and
cabinets custom designed per use and user throughout the town house.
The cellar was lowered 2 plus feet to accommodate generous ceiling
height 9' for the newly created family room. Other building features
include built-in audio system throughout the house and camera intercom
at every floor for communication.
