On the Market: Restored Corner Mansion on Delancey Going for $4.75 Million
Hand-crafted finishes, six original fireplaces…you wouldn’t know it because, as far as we can tell, the folks over at Lily Development seem to have done a mighty fine job restoring this magnificent residence to its original grandeur, but the property–a Second Empire construction built by Frank Furness protégés–actually had a forty-year stint as an apartment building!
Its must-sees include a spiral walnut staircase with skylight, four-passenger elevator that makes stops on all of its floors, and a 900-square-foot roof terrace over the 3-car heated garage. It’s also within walking distance to Fitler Square and boasts an exquisite kitchen that we deemed one of the best for Thanksgiving in Center City about a year ago.
Additional details:
- Walnut pocket doors
- Inlaid floors
- Wainscoting and plaster molding
- 14-foot ceilings on first and second levels
- Study/den, media room, laundry room, office
- Made a cameo on Outlaw
- All new plumbing
