297 East 163rd Street

This beautiful 3-story one-unit home with a large backyard was built in 1901 and renovated in 2019 by Swiss architect Julian von der Schulenburg. The thoughtful redesign upgraded the kitchen and bathrooms and added new electric wiring and plumbing while preserving many of this Victorian home's architectural details. New siding and insulation were added in 2022. A modern split-level HVAC system and an electric hot water heater were installed in 2023. All new Andersen windows were added in 2024.

The lower level, with a private entrance, contains a guest suite with bedroom, full bathroom and kitchen.

The main two floors above contain three bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a huge walk-in closet, a spacious and modern kitchen and dining and living rooms that can be separated or opened up by two sets of pocket doors.

Below the garden level is a large cellar suited for storage and a workshop.

The house is located on a quiet street in a low property assessment district and is within easy distance to grocery stores, Yankee Stadium, the Bronx Museum of the Arts, the Bronx Documentary Center and the new Bronx Music Hall.
