About this home

Here's a rare opportunity to own an updated 1920s Manhattan carriage house- complete with a private backyard and garage. This is 42 1/2 Adrian Avenue, a beautifully maintained and renovated carriage-style townhouse built in 1925 offering a rare combination of historic character, unique high-end finishes, heated kitchen and bathroom floors, and highly coveted private parking right in Manhattan's northern-most neighborhood, Marble Hill. Passing through the handmade, lead transom-lit mahogany front door, the entrance opens into a welcoming foyer, setting the stage for the quality and beauty within. The foyer conveniently connects to a full utility basement with laundry, tons of storage, and direct, seamless access to your private garage-a true luxury in Manhattan. The main living level serves as the ideal setting for both daily relaxation and effortless entertaining. The living area flows into a formal dining room where French doors step directly out into a serene private garden and backyard. The adjacent gourmet kitchen features exquisite marble countertops, top-of-the-line appliances, an InSinkErator garbage disposal system, and a charming bay window framing the lush garden outside. Classic imported French stone flooring ground the space in timeless elegance, reflected in the custom millwork cabinets and integrated appliances. Ascending the skylit staircase, the top floor reveals a spacious primary bedroom with leafy treetop views. A comfortable second bedroom easily accommodates a queen-size bed, while a versatile third room works brilliantly as a home office, nursery, or guest room. The spa-inspired bathroom is finished in honed marble and honey mosaic tile, featuring a deep jacuzzi soaking tub with a rain-head shower, Sonoma Forge fixtures, heated ceramic floors, and a sleek tankless toilet. The room is illuminated by the large skylight and recessed lighting. Built in Marble Hill, Manhattan's unique, northern-most enclave, this residence offers suburban-style tranquility alongside incredible city convenience. Living here offers quick access to some of New York City's treasured landmarks, including Van Cortlandt Park, The MET Cloisters in Fort Tryon Park, and Inwood Hill Park. Commuting is remarkably simple no matter where you're headed, with the Marble Hill Metro-North station just moments away for a 22-minute ride to Grand Central, alongside nearby access to the 1 subway line, local buses, and major highways & bridges. There is plenty of shopping and conveniences closeby, like Target and Garden Gourmet Market, and the restaurants on Broadway, Riverdale, and Johnson Avenues. This rare, turnkey carriage house offers an exceptional blend of space, privacy, and architectural beauty. Schedule your private showing today!
