Just as the current owners have called 133 East 95th Street their home for over 60 years, there is now the wonderful opportunity for a new owner to shepherd this unique townhouse into its next life. Located on one of the most picturesque blocks in all of Manhattan; this home is one of 27 single-family townhouses included in the active Goat Hill Neighborhood Association.
With over 4,400 interior square feet, a 50 foot-deep garden, ceiling heights of nearly 11', 6 bedrooms, and 3 fireplaces; this is a special home. Its unique facade within the neighborhood offers East and West windows on both the parlor and second floors. 133 East 95th Street's current configuration also provides the opportunity to retain the lower level as professional space or create a gracious kitchen and family room on the garden level.
Throughout, many of the original details are intact and heighten the sense of comfortable grandeur: Oversized windows on both the south facing parlor and library floors, a charming central staircase, and casual dining balcony overlooking the planted garden. The living room with its crown moldings, multi-pane Federal windows, woodburning fireplace, and classic arched bookcases is perfectly proportioned. On the second floor is a spacious primary bedroom with expansive dressing area and ensuite bath adjacent to the library. With custom built-in bookcases, the library can also function as a home office. Upstairs there are five additional bedrooms, one featuring a southern private terrace, and a separate laundry room.
During the last quarter of the nineteenth century, this Goat Hill neighborhood of the historic district experienced a surge of development. The transformation of Carnegie Hill into an exclusive residential enclave continued during the years between the World Wars. However, with the financial difficulties of maintaining a rowhouse during the Depression of the 1930's, many were altered to suit new tastes and uses. 133 East 95th Street was no exception. In 1932 James H. Ripley extended the front to the lot line adding a four-story facade with ground level entrance. In 1939, further alterations raised the height to five-stories. This historic home is now known as the James H. Ripley House.
