UNRIVALED: THE BEST OF THREE CENTURIES<br><br>


RARE & RENOVATED - SOULFUL ELEGANCE - 2BR 2BTH w/WOOD BURNING FIREPLACE<br><br>


Just off of Fifth Avenue\?s Gold Coast, on leafy West Ninth Street, there sit three important historical buildings. Side-by-side, these Queen Anne beauties have stood proudly on their treasured, tree-lined block since 1833. Known as the Portsmouth and the Hampshire, these proud addresses are among the most unique and prized in the Village, and they comprise a well-run, doorman cooperative. This remarkably rare, gorgeous home is an integral part of this terrific trio. <br><br>


After landing on the forth floor of the boutique Portsmouth building, you exit the elevator, enter a sweet hall, and cross the threshold of a very special residence. Here, Nineteenth Century elegance melds soulfully with Twenty First Century comforts and design \? creating a striking, feel-good home chock full of grace, texture, and style. With wide-planked, Belgian Oak floors underfoot, and high ceilings soaring above, you enter the sweet foyer/gallery, which brings you into the sizable living room. This room has a grand intimacy \? ideal for entertaining \? with a wood burning fireplace (graced by a French limestone mantle from the 1700\?s), exposed brick, classic moldings, and three sunshiny windows sweetly showcasing the treetops and neighboring architecture. <br><br>


Down the gallery hall, floored with more of this home\?s striking, chevron-patterned Belgian Oak, is the eat-in cook\?s kitchen \? a pretty and practical space swimming in Southern sunshine, and featuring stone counters, a big prep island, top-shelf appliances (by Wolf, Miele & Subzero), and ample custom cabinets. The kitchen is flanked by an en suite breakfast area and wall of bright windows on one side \? on its other side is the dining room. The dining is a room boasting angled windows and an historical limestone mantel \? it is easily reimagined as a second living room.
<br><br>


Both bedrooms are tranquil and comfortable. The master offers an en-suite dressing room and en suite windowed bath. The guest bedroom is served by its own marble bath with Waterworks fixtures and a rain shower. <br><br>


This easy-to-live and easy-to-love, one-of-a-kind home offers central AC, washer/dryer, a Crestron media/lighting system, and private storage. Perfectly perched in the well-run, coveted, pet and pied-a-terre friendly Portsmouth, life here is relaxed, refined, and convenient. With the panache of the Gold Coast, and its prime proximity to every downtown cultural, dining, shopping, fitness, and green space destination, this happy home is a winsome choice indeed. Here, the best elements of three centuries come together beautifully \? and the delightful result is right here today \? waiting for you.
