19 Montgomery Place   Unit HOUSE

19 Montgomery Place is a brick/brownstone home built by C.P.H. Gilbert at the turn of the century. 30’ wide on 1.5 lots in mint condition, the single family residence underwent an end-user’s meticulous 3 year gut renovation. With oversized windows and a Southern exposure, this home is the brightest we have ever offered. Designed by Mary Burnham of MBB Architects, the house is a modern/minimalist masterpiece. Two parking spaces and a studio apartment can be purchased separately, completing this rare offering.
Entering from the grand sweeping stoop, one immediately feels the rare width. A sculptural staircase in the center of the home weaves together all five floors in which not a single detail was overlooked nor a corner cut.
