Description
A landmark corner single-family townhouse on iconic Jumel Terrace, a cobblestone block within the landmarked Jumel Terrace Historic District, directly facing the Morris–Jumel Mansion and Roger Morris Park with protected open views.
Designed in 1896 by Henri Fouchaux for William W. Watkins, this Romanesque Revival residence is the largest of five landmarked homes on the street. The home spans approximately 3,500 square feet across four full floors, plus an approximately 800 square foot finished basement, and measures approximately 18 feet wide on a 17.75 by 100 foot lot.
The parlor level features formal living and dining rooms with soaring ceilings, original woodwork, five decorative fireplaces, pocket doors, stained glass, and wood shutters. The garden level includes a study and dining area, eat-in kitchen with granite countertops and vented hood, full bathroom, and direct access to a private approximately 600 square foot garden.
Upper floors include 4 additional bedrooms, bringing the total to 5, including a primary suite with dressing room and original oak cabinetry. Three skylights provide natural light. The home includes 4 full bathrooms, two featuring Toto bidet toilets.
The finished lower level offers a home gym, media room, storage, and a full bathroom with a six-jet and rain shower.
Front-facing rooms enjoy eastern exposures with park and mansion views. Rear rooms offer western exposures and sunset light, with skyline views from the upper level.
Modern systems have been thoughtfully integrated, including Mitsubishi split heating and air conditioning units in every room. Annual property taxes are $11,411.
Convenient to transportation, including the C train at West 163rd Street and Amsterdam Avenue, and the A and D trains at West 161st Street and St. Nicholas Avenue, with additional access to the 1 train at West 157th Street and Broadway.
