Property Description for 18 East 93rd Street

STILL AVAILABLE!

Make your home on one of the most beautiful tree-lined blocks in the historic landmarked district of Carnegie Hill, right next to Central Park.This handsome 20-foot, five-story townhouse has original architectural details inside and out, high ceilings, grand front and rear rooms, nine fireplaces and a luscious south-facing garden..

Enter into the garden level, the first of five magnificent floors. The layout allows for easy reconfiguration from its current office use to create an oversized eat-in kitchen with breakfast room overlooking the charming garden, your own private oasis of lush greenery.

The front door with glass panes encased in elaborate ironwork opens into the beautiful formal entry to the parlor floor. This welcoming foyer still retains its intricate ceiling with original detailed millwork. The parlor also boasts two large arched windows and a fireplace. The dining room features 11'9" ceilings, a marble fireplace, oak floors with decorative borders and picture-perfect French doors enfolded in distinctive ironwork which open onto a lovely private balcony wrapped in a European inspired canopy of greenery and grapevines.

The upper floors contain six beautifully proportioned rooms with rich crown and base board moldings, elegantly framed windows, period fireplaces, and two bathrooms per floor. The south-facing rooms are pretty and peaceful. The fourth floor has a sun-flooded terrace overlooking the garden.

The cellar currently houses the laundry room, mechanicals and storage. It can also be excavated to create a full floor with ample space for a gym. In line with similar plans in the neighboring buildings, an elevator can be added to provide easy access to all floors.Number 18 is located in the heart of Museum Mile near the Reservoir. This area of Manhattan feels like a village in the middle of the busiest city in the world. 18 East 93rd Street is one of a Romanesque Revival row of townhouses built by the father-son team of Walter Reid and Walter Reid, Jr. in 1892-93. The Reids used uniform materials and color, with two distinct alternating facades, adding a harmonious rhythm to this outstanding block.

Carnegie Hill | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Carnegie Hill is a small neighborhood at the northern tip of the Upper East Side that borders Central Park. It is steeped in history, great wealth, architecture and culture. It is known for its world-class museums and its rows of historic mansions. Nothing much changes here as the entire area is landmarked, preventing the proliferation of high-rise developments. Thus the buildings stay a human scale, the sky is aplenty and the neighborhood kind of feels like a small town to its long time residents.

The name Carnegie Hill is derived from the industrial magnate Andrew Carnegie, when Carnegie decided to build himself a mansion at 91st Street and Fifth Avenue….

Carnegie Hill is a family neighborhood with old fashioned upper crust money. The mid-rise co-ops that line the avenues are among the most prestigious addresses in the city. The avenues are lined with small restaurants, boutique shops

The residential towers that have proliferated on the eastside of Third Avenue in the East 90s simply do not exist between Lexington and Fifth.
