152 East 63rd Street is a distinctive two-unit condominium featuring a meticulously renovated four-story townhouse paired with an independent garden-level unit. Originally constructed in the 1870s as the Thomas L. Bennett House for the Child family, this 17 foot wide brownstone was designed by architect Frederick Junius Sterner, a notable figure in New York's architectural history. The property totals approximately 5,500 square feet, with the main townhouse comprising about 3,344 square feet plus basement storage.
The main residence seamlessly blends prewar charm with modern luxury across its four floors. The parlor level showcases high ceilings, elegant moldings, and oversized south facing bay windows, complemented by a wood burning fireplace and auxiliary kitchen. The second and third floors house four bedrooms total, each featuring wood floors, high ceilings, and wood burning fireplaces, with newly renovated bathrooms throughout. The crown jewel is the top floor, which houses a chef's kitchen with imported Italian finishes, featuring top tier appliances including a Wolf gas range, Miele dishwasher and microwave, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and built in Thermador wine refrigerator, plus a large planted terrace offering privacy and expansive views.
The garden-level unit provides remarkable flexibility as either an income generating rental or professional office space. This completely renovated space includes its own gated private entrance, two bedrooms/offices, two beautifully designed bathrooms, an open kitchen with washer dryer, wood burning fireplace, and a charming patio accessible through French doors. The unit benefits from central air conditioning and the same soundproof windows found throughout the main house.
Practical considerations make this property particularly appealing: soundproof windows imported from Germany ensure tranquility, all mechanical systems are updated and inspected annually, and there are no violations or open permits. The property is not landmarked, offering more flexibility for future modifications. The unique zoning allows the garden level to function as office space, while the main house maintains residential zoning, creating multiple possibilities for live/work arrangements or investment income.
