850 E 23rd St #private house New York City, NY 11210

A rare opportunity to own a stately, fully detached home on one of Midwood's most coveted blocks. Built new in 2005, this residence offers an extraordinary combination of scale, elegance, privacy, and modern comfort. Set on a 40 × 100 lot, the home provides exceptional outdoor space and proportion. With an expansive 27 × 95 build, the property was designed with remarkable intelligence and intention, maximizing every inch to create a layout rarely found in the area. A private driveway further enhances convenience and security. Upon entering, you are greeted by a beautiful, expansive entryway that immediately sets the tone for the home's sophistication. The front portion of the main level features dramatic double-height ceilings, creating an impressive sense of volume, light, and openness, while exceptionally high ceilings continue throughout the rest of the floor. A showstopping sweeping staircase anchors the space, serving as both an architectural centerpiece and a stunning design element. The main level offers a series of generously sized rooms thoughtfully designed to be separate yet interconnected, allowing for refined everyday living as well as extraordinary entertaining. For those who love to host, this home is truly unmatched. Expansive formal and informal living areas, a formal dining room, a chef's kitchen, a butler's pantry, a sunk-in den, and a library create endless possibilities for gatherings of any scale - from intimate dinners to full private events and celebrations. With this level of space and flow, there is no need to rent an outside venue; the home itself becomes the perfect setting. In addition to its impressive layout, the home provides an abundance of closets, pantries, and storage throughout - far more than one would ever expect - ensuring seamless organization across all levels. To complement its thoughtful design, the home is equipped with six central air-conditioning zones, offering practical, energy-efficient climate control throughout the year. And beyond the grand front entrance, a beautiful side entrance provides added convenience when bringing in groceries or everyday items. The private quarters include four well-appointed bedrooms and three bathrooms on the second level. Two of the bedrooms offer en-suite bathrooms, while an additional full bath is accessible from the hallway, along with a dedicated laundry room for added ease. Every bedroom features an abundance of closet space for exceptional comfort and practicality. The master suite also features an oversized custom walk-in closet and a separate sitting area that can serve as a tranquil lounge, workspace, or even a mini-gym. The third level offers three additional large bedrooms along with a spacious living or hangout area, ideal for a lounge, playroom, mini gym, office, or creative studio. A full bathroom completes this floor, making it perfect for extended family or guest accommodations. The fully finished basement includes a large recreation area, two more bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a second laundry room - providing exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living, guests, or additional entertaining needs. Positioned on a quiet, private dead-end block, the property delivers a level of privacy, tranquility, and exclusivity that is exceptionally rare. Yet all conveniences - grocery stores, restaurants, hair and nail salons, parks, and recreation - are just minutes away. It is the perfect balance of peaceful residential living with every essential amenity close by. This isn't just a home - it's a lifestyle. A residence that exudes elegance from the moment you step inside, offering scale, comfort, and possibilities you simply won't find elsewhere. Exclusive listing by Chana Ofek.
