Welcome to a premier residence where historic character and contemporary living converge. The beautifully portioned and detailed rooms welcome a multitude of styles from contemporary to traditional and provide the perfect backdrop for your own design vision. 1809 Delancey Place has been meticulously reimagined for 21st Century living while honoring a distinguished architectural heritage. This personal home of noted interior designer, Barbara Eberlein, is filled with valuable design ideas that invite all stages of life cycle evolution: from raising a young family to enjoying expansive “empty nesters” bonus spaces to inviting gracious entertaining on multiple levels. The home delivers on all of those promises and possibilities with grace and ease. Elegant wood floors, original and faithfull y reproduced moldings, ornamental mantelpieces, and newly crafted custom millwork are complemented by thoughtfully integrated modern conveniences. Realized through the collaborative vision of Eberlein Design Consultants, Hanson Fine Building and Larsen & Landis Structural Engineers, the home combines classical architectural principles, period-appropriate materials, elegant proportions, and contemporary functionality. Details include custom thermopane windows, handcrafted brass and nickel hardware, graceful light fixtures, traditional bathroom fixtures, and a skylit staircase that fills the home with natural light. Sophisticated mechanical systems are seamlessly integrated within the historic walls, preserving original ceiling heights and room volumes while providing efficient heating and cooling, enhanced sound and thermal insulation, and long-term structural integrity. The roof structure, flashings, surface and deck have been completely rebuilt. Designed with remarkable flexibility, the residence offers five bedrooms, five full bathrooms, two powder rooms, extensive closet space, and multiple adaptable living spaces. The welcoming foyer opens to an elegant living room with a dramatic arched opening, marble detailing, custom built-ins, and a gracious powder room. The living room features custom cabinetry incorporating a wet bar, bookshelves, and abundant storage, creating a sophisticated setting for everyday living or grand entertaining. The eat-in kitchen features an angled peninsula, generous cabinetry, and breakfast nook, while the adjacent formal dining room is ideal for entertaining. Outside, the terrace overlooks a fountain lounge and offers an inviting extension of the home's entertaining spaces, for outdoor dining and gathering around the fireplace. The second-floor primary suite features south-facing windows, generous dual primary closets, and a luxurious bathroom with double-sink vanity and whirlpool tub. The primary bedroom includes ample space and includes lounge seating. A second bedroom offers a bay window, dressing room, storage, and ensuite bath. The third floor provides flexibility with a sunny bedroom, exercise room or office/media space, and two additional bathrooms. A fourth bedroom includes a spacious dressing room/study with built-in desk and shelving. The fourth floor offers a fifth bedroom, full bath and cedar closet. A spectacular new roof deck crowns the home, providing a private setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, and relaxing with impressive views. The lower level expands the home's versatility with a flexible media room, kitchenette, powder room, and extensive storage. A generous garage with built-in storage connects to the carport, while the home's configuration, if desired, can accommodate independent access to the living spaces, ideal as a second entrance for a home office. Every inch of 1809 Delancey Place reflects a rare balance of preservation, craftsmanship, innovation, and livability. From period-inspired architectural details to intelligent systems, abundant storage and flexible floor plan, this extraordinary residence sets a thoughtful new standard for historic city living.
