Yon maryaj ra ant prèske de syèk istwa New York ak liks modèn ki fèt avèk anpil refleksyon, 25 Vandam Street se yon kay Federal an ranje ki gen 20 pye lajè, restore avèk anpil rafinman, nan youn nan blòk ki pi charmant nan sid Manhattan.

Li te konstwi an 1823 epi li sitiye nan distri istorik Charlton-King-Vandam ki trè recherché. Rezidans eksepsyonèl sa a te restore avèk anpil swen pou mete an valè karaktè orijinal remakab li, pandan yo ajoute konfò, kalite atizanri ak enfrastrikti yon kay modèn. Kounye a, li òganize kòm yon rezidans pou de fanmi: yon triplex pwopriyetè a ki gen twa chanm, ansanm ak yon bèl apatman jaden ki gen yon chanm, li menm ki te renove nèt. De rezidans yo kapab fasilman reyini ankò atravè yon eskalye andedan pou kreye yon kay espektakilè pou yon sèl fanmi.

Triplex pwopriyetè a se yon egzanp rich an detay sou elegans istorik. Nan sant li gen yon bèl salon doub ak plafon ki monte jiska 10 pye 9 pous, planche orijinal an planch pye, moulur, ankadreman pòt ak fen detay plafon an andui ki restore avèk anpil bote, ansanm ak de chemine ki boule bwa epi ki ankadre ak bèl mantèl mab. Limyè solèy, echèl espas yo ak detay epòk la bay chanm sa yo yon sans distenktif seremoni, pandan ekipman modèn yo, ki entegre avèk anpil delikates, fè kay la trè konfòtab pou viv.

Nan dèyè a, salon an louvri dirèkteman sou yon jaden prive ekstraòdinè ki gen 39 pye pwofondè, sa ki kreye yon koneksyon san tranzisyon ant lavi andedan ak lavi deyò. Yon teras ki kouvri ak planch bwa mennen nan yon peyizaj vèt ak trankil, ki gen yon pergola, yon eleman dlo ak yon sistèm irigasyon—yon refij idilik ki kache nan kè sid Manhattan. Yon twalèt envite disrè, ki nich dèyè eskalye orijinal la, konplete etaj salon an.

Monte eskalye orijinal la, ki restore avèk anpil bote, pou rive nan yon kwizin laj epi ki plen limyè, kote materyèl klasik rankontre yon atizanri eksepsyonèl. Mab Carrara marye ak kabinè an erab ki fèt sou mezi pa atizan New England, pandan yon zile santral enpòtan ki gen yon kontwa pou dejene kreye yon espas natirèl pou moun rasanble. Yon chemine ki boule bwa pote yon chalè ak yon karaktè ki ra nan pyès la. Nan dèyè a, yon pè pòt franse Marvin ki kouvri ak aliminyòm ouvri sou yon balkon Juliet ki bay sou jaden ki anba a.

Sou menm etaj sa a gen yon suit chanm ekstraòdinèman laj, ki jwenn limyè atravè twa gwo fenèt ki bay nan sid. Avèk pwòp chemine li ki boule bwa ak twalèt prive li, pyès la gen dimansyon ak anbyans yon refij pèsonèl.

Dènye etaj la ofri yon final inatandi ak dramatik. Suit prensipal la, ki sanble ak yon penthouse, chita anba yon plafon mansad ki gen pout dekoratif epi ki monte jiska apeprè 13 pye 9 pous, sa ki kreye yon sans volim ak espas ki lejè, yon bagay yo raman jwenn nan yon kay istorik an ranje. Yon chemine ajoute chalè ak romantis, pandan twalèt mab ki toupre a, ki jwenn limyè nan fenèt plafon, gen de lavabo, yon gwo douch kote moun ka antre fasilman, ansanm ak yon beny pou tranpe. Yon twazyèm chanm, ki eklere pa kat gwo fenèt, ofri yon espas akeyan pou envite, yon biwo lakay oswa plis kote pou dòmi.

Rezidans jaden an, ki separe, te reimajine nèt avèk yon sansiblite pwòp ak kontanporen. Yo antre ladan l atravè pwòp antre li ki nan nivo lari a. Apatman ki gen yon chanm nan gen yon kwizin modèn, pwòp machin pou lave ak seche rad li, plaka ki òganize avèk anpil refleksyon, ak yon twalèt edmi ki byen amenaje, ladan l gen yon gwo douch kote moun ka antre fasilman. Fenèt Marvin ki reziste kont enpak yo devan apatman an te chwazi pou repwodui pwopòsyon ak aparans fenèt orijinal kay la ki gen de batant vètikal, konsa yo prezève entegrite fasad istorik la.

Dèyè bote kay la ki raple yon lòt epòk, gen yon gwo pwogram amelyorasyon enfrastrikti. Yo te enstale yon nouvo liy egou ak yon nouvo kanalizasyon dlo an 2022, ansanm ak nouvo aparèy chofaj dlo ki mache ak gaz natirèl ak sistèm HVAC ki mete ajou. Triplex la ofri èkondisyone santral sou de zòn: premye ak dezyèm etaj yo sèvi ak yon sistèm Mitsubishi ki gen kanalizasyon, epi gen yon sistèm apa pou twazyèm etaj la. Rezidans jaden an gen de

A rare marriage of nearly two centuries of New York history and thoughtful modern luxury, 25 Vandam Street is an exquisitely restored 20-foot-wide Federal townhouse on one of downtown Manhattan's most enchanting blocks.

Built in 1823 and set within the coveted Charlton-King-Vandam Historic District, this exceptional residence has been carefully restored to celebrate its remarkable original character while introducing the comfort, craftsmanship, and infrastructure of a modern home. Currently configured as a two-family residence, the house comprises a gracious three-bedroom owner's triplex and a beautifully gut-renovated one-bedroom garden apartment. The two residences can also be readily reunited via an interior staircase to create a spectacular single-family home.

The owner's triplex is a richly detailed study in historic elegance. At its heart is a magnificent double parlor with soaring 10'9" ceilings, original wide-plank pine floors, beautifully restored moldings, casings, and plaster ceiling details, and two wood-burning fireplaces framed by handsome marble mantels. Sunlight, scale, and period details give these rooms an unmistakable sense of occasion, while carefully integrated modern amenities make the home wonderfully livable.

At the rear, the parlor opens directly onto an extraordinary 39-foot-deep private garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. A wood-deck terrace gives way to a lush, tranquil landscape complete with a pergola, water feature, and irrigation system, an idyllic retreat hidden away in the heart of downtown Manhattan. A discreet powder room tucked behind the original staircase completes the parlor floor.

Ascend the beautifully restored original staircase to an expansive, light-filled kitchen where classic materials meet exceptional craftsmanship. Carrara marble is paired with custom maple cabinetry handcrafted by New England craftsmen, while a substantial center island with breakfast bar creates a natural gathering place. A wood-burning fireplace brings uncommon warmth and character to the room. At the rear, a pair of Marvin aluminum-clad French doors opens to a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden below.

Also on this floor is an exceptionally generous bedroom suite illuminated by three large south-facing windows. With its own wood-burning fireplace and en-suite bath, the room has the scale and atmosphere of a private retreat.

The top floor delivers an unexpected and dramatic finale. The penthouse-like primary suite sits beneath a sculptural beamed dormer ceiling that soars to approximately 13'9", creating an airy sense of volume rarely encountered in a historic townhouse. A fireplace adds warmth and romance, while the adjoining skylit, five-fixture marble bath features dual sinks, an oversized walk-in shower, and soaking tub. A third bedroom, brightened by four large windows, offers an inviting space for guests, a home office, or additional sleeping quarters.

The separate garden residence has been completely reimagined with a clean, contemporary sensibility. Accessed through its own street-level entrance, the one-bedroom apartment features a modern kitchen, its own washer and dryer, thoughtfully organized closets, and one-and-a-half beautifully appointed baths, including an oversized walk-in shower. Impact-rated Marvin windows at the front of the apartment were selected to replicate the proportions and appearance of the home's original double-hung windows, preserving the integrity of the historic facade.

Behind the home's period beauty is a substantial program of infrastructure improvements. A new sewer line and water main were installed in 2022, along with new natural-gas hot-water heaters and updated HVAC systems. The triplex offers two-zone central air, with the first and second floors served by a Mitsubishi ducted system and a separate system serving the third floor. The garden residence has two
