34 Hamilton Terrace

Situated amidst the prestigious homes known as the Hamilton Heights Historic District, sits the majestic 34 Hamilton Terrace. Built in 1899, and maintained as a single- residence since, this piece of Upper Manhattan history is a true gem. And while the age and history may give this home its charm, the updates give it that wow-factor. Amongst the highlights are restored crown moldings, top of the line kitchen and bath appliances, bamboo flooring and recessed lighting throughout. Three gas fireplaces as well as heated floors in the kitchen and master bath, and central air and heat throughout provide comfort at your fingertips. The four masterfully laid out floors are all connected via elevator, as well as a grand staircase with original detail.

Parlor Floor

Step up through the main entrance to be greeted by two sizable entertaining rooms connected via a butlers pantry with wine fridge, and a tiled powder room pass through. Nestled behind the two living rooms is a cozy study with double doors leading to a magnificent private deck and expansive 18x31 backyard that is nothing short of an outdoor oasis beckoning back to the farmland it once was when Alexander Hamilton, himself, lived in the neighborhood.

Ground Floor

A second entrance is available at ground level to access the parlor floor, furnished with a bright east-facing room with stately gas fireplace. A chefs kitchen large enough to whip up a palatial spread is found at the rear of the floor. Featuring granite counter tops, custom millwork, and stainless appliances including a Bosch dishwasher, Subzero refrigerator, microwave, double oven and warming tray and a Viking six burner chef's stove, any home cook would delight in working here. Space to indulge in a feast is available at the grand center island, as well as the breakfast nook with built-in banquet seating.

2nd Floor

The second floor is home to the master suite. The bedroom with gas fireplace allows ample room for a king size bed and sitting area. Space for productivity or breaking a sweat is available via a bonus room perfect for a small gym or home office. Dual lavatories, large steam shower and spa tub complete the en suite bath boasting heated floors. A western facing balcony off the rear of this floor is perfect for enjoying a glass of wine as the sunsets.

3rd Floor

The top floor is arranged with two identical bedrooms each with access to their own full bath - a perfect prince-and-princess layout. Playful exposed brick surrounding the last of the gas fireplaces is a reminder of the beauty and history in this neighborhood and laundry closet with Whirlpool washer and dryer lend itself to the functionality of this extraordinary home.

One of only 113 homes that can call themselves a part of the Hamilton Heights History District, 34 Hamilton Terrace boasts a strong heritage comprised of gorgeous architecture and city accessibility. Within walking-distance to the A, B, C and D trains, grocery stores, parks, fitness clubs and restaurants and bars, the neighborhood echos this homes charm with stunning class.
