Prague and renovated by one of New York’s most respected builders, this five-story home seamlessly combines a sophisticated four-bedroom residence with an impressive six-room office for an exceptional live/work environment. Enormous casement windows, exceptional millwork and thoughtful design bring a distinctly European sensibility to a setting that balances traditional architecture with modern living. The house can easily become a compelling, grand single-family residence–all within a 20' wide lot. The house has a private elevator. The residence, on the upper floors, features four bedrooms, exceptional millwork, thoughtful design, voluminous entertaining spaces, a showstopping south-facing kitchen. The office, on the lower floors, offers exceptional light, has direct garden access and provides generous space for 25 people. It operates entirely independently from the residence, with its own reception room for business meetings. Exciting architectural highlights include outdoor space on each floor, working fireplaces, a newly designed staircase with skylight atop, central air conditioning, and a large gym. *A third party, FloorPlanSource, states the interior gross square footage to be approximately 7,900SF.

Sample sizes vary by metric. These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure. Sales data through September 2026. Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.
