This Tudor Revival style home, built in 1890 in one of Manhattan's most distinctive townhouse rows, has retained much of its original interior details. At 20 feet wide and five stories high from garden to roof, 327 Convent Avenue is ready to be renovated into the one- or two-family home of your dreams. An unusually deep and lushly landscaped front garden creates a tranquil transition from the sidewalk to the wide, quarter-turn porch. The Parlor floor features a living room, dining room, kitchenette, bathroom and center gallery at the foot of an impressive sky-lit staircase. There are 11 foot ceilings, mahogany inlaid parquet floors, folding window shutters and solid pocket doors throughout. On the garden level is a separate apartment overlooking the sunny backyard, with mechanicals and a laundry room adjacent to the private under-roof entrance. The impressive legacy of original details continues on the third floor with wood window casings and floor-to-ceiling cabinets. The fourth floor includes three bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom and the topmost of the home's six fireplaces. The fifth-floor solarium is currently a bright bedroom suite that could open to a stunning rooftop terrace in the future. The Adolph Houck-designed home, with its Tudor-style pitched roof and half-timbered facade, is located in the historic Hamilton Heights neighborhood, around the corner from the Hamilton Grange mansion and the fabulous Gothic stonework of City College.
