Property Description for 27 Harrison Street

Stunning and rare, 27 Harrison is a miraculous glimpse of early 19th century New York. Located on a tree-lined, picturesque cobblestone block in the heart of Tribeca, the McComb House was built in 1796 by the architect of City Hall, John McComb, Jr. Moved from its original site, the house was designated as a landmark in 1969, and may be among one of the oldest houses in the city. A truly one-of-a-kind home with an iconic Federal–style, red-brick facade, peaked roof, and signature dormer windows, meticulously renovated from top to bottom with contemporary interiors. This four story, 25 foot wide townhouse (approximately 4,000 square feet) features four bedrooms, four and a half baths, four fireplaces, and a tranquil garden. The parlor floor features a massive, open loft-like grand salon space with soaring 10 ft+ ceilings and tall windows, bathing the living area and dining area with light all day long. Other elements include a spacious, open entry foyer, with abundant storage closets, a pristine sky blue tile powder room, a cozy sitting area, and a regal wood burning fireplace. The expansive, open and modern chef's eat-in kitchen features beautiful white cabinets, pantry, and counters along with metallic green grey backsplash, with best in class stainless steel Subzero fridge and Miele appliance package including induction range oven with overhead vent hood, wine fridge, espresso machine, & microwave oven. Right outside, your private oasis, a leafy green landscaped, quiet rear garden (approximately 575 square feet). The English basement is incredible with a huge lounge space with fireplace, a big bedroom, full spa-like bath with glass shower, and a large laundry room with Miele washer/dryer, along with sink, folding area, and epic utility storage. The second floor has two oversized bedrooms, both with excellent closets and uniquely tiled en-suite baths with deep tubs. There's even a separate hall area that could be used as a play space or home office space, with additional gracious storage. On the staircase landing; a built-in window seat overlooking the garden, perfect for an afternoon read. The spectacular sunny & airy master suite occupies the entire top floor offering vaulted high-pitched 12 ft+ ceilings, with glorious light from the skylight and dormer windows, two fireplaces, and an open bath concept with an unbelievable copper soaking tub and a custom granite double shower. Extraordinary storage and space, with enough room for a sitting area and home office, along with a King sized bed, with ceiling fan and front door buzzer and intercom for additional convenience. Perfectly designed, each room feels like it's own part of a finely crafted masterpiece, where historic classicism meets modern comfort. No detail has been overlooked; from the charming exposed brick, wood beams, white wood floors & window shutters, to the built-in bookcases, dual window treatments for sun & privacy, along with NEST thermostat controlled central heat & air conditioning throughout, and adjustable lighting options in almost every room, all coming together to complete the dream townhouse you have been looking to call home.

Quick Profile

TriBeCa, named after the small geographic triangle below Canal Street. It’s not really a triangle, it's a quadrilateral and it's bounded by West Street, Broadway, and Chambers Street. It’s a little too late for a name change and besides, QuaBeCa doesn't sound half as cool as Tribeca.  

One of New York City’s more notable acronymed neighborhoods, TriBeCa is known for its trendy boutiques, fabolous restaurants, historical landmarks, and resident celebrity lofts. It still holds the title of one of the coolest places to live in New York City. 

TriBeCa is one of the first residential neighborhoods of New York City. Way back in 1700’s wealthy New Yorkers built homes and maintained gardens in what is now TriBeca. 

Later in history it shifted from residential to warehouses, commerce and markets. After the Civil War, shipping hubs moved from the East River to the Hudson River and revitalized areas like the South Street Seaport and TriBeca. When shipping and commerce increased, the area soon became a favorite spot for wholesalers to store their goods in large industrial warehouses. 

Just like its neighbor SoHo, TriBeCa boasts one of the world’s largest collections of wrought-iron facades and Neo-Grecian architecture.
