Description

Located in the very near East Side, neighbors with the French Legation,  this private sanctuary offers the rare combination of walkable convenience and serene luxury. Gated and walled for complete privacy, the home feels like living in a private park in the middle of the city. Just a five minute walk to Whole Foods, the thriving restaurants of E 11th and E 6th streets, or slip over into downtown on the protected pedestrian walkway.

Cross a steel-and-stone bridge to enter a world of calm sophistication. Inside, soaring ceilings, museum-like interiors, and expansive porches and shaded balconies with skyline views create a peaceful retreat that still keeps you connected to the city’s energy. A major 2023 renovation refreshed the kitchen and bathroom with custom cabinetry and quartzite countertops. Every room is bathed in light, surrounded by greenery, and thoughtfully designed for both beauty and comfort. Every detail speaks to luxury: bespoke finishes, gallery lighting, lush native gardens,

The property also includes a separate one-bedroom apartment with a full kitchen, private entrance, and alley access—perfect for guests, rental income, or long-term investment.

With approved plans for a 1,500 sq ft ADU, space for a pool, and no HOA or historic restrictions, this property offers not only elevated living but also unmatched flexibility. A true retreat in the heart of the East Side—walkable, peaceful, and magazine-cover worthy

With two living quarters, this incredible home would be ideal for a short term rental, or to live in and offer the secondary unit to a tenant/nanny/grandparent for income or convenience!
