Elegant Prewar Alcove Studio with Antique Marble Mantle at the Southgate
Set on a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac in Beekman, Residence 1E at the Southgate combines classic Emery Roth architecture with an exacting renovation done from the inside out. Originally curated by an owner in the fashion industry with a keen eye for art and antiques, the home was conceived as a refined boutique sanctuary, yet offers immense flexibility to adapt to any buyer's needs -whether as an elegant primary home or an inspiring pied-à-terre. At the heart of the dining salon sits an authentic 19th-century French mantle in Rouge Royal marble, installed by Wm. H. Jackson, the historic New York firm founded in 1827. It serves as a dramatic, irreplaceable focal point for dining, entertaining, and showcasing art.
