Property Description
Introducing Maison Espoir/House of Hope at 41 Astor Pl offers something increasingly difficult to find: four stories of historic character reminiscent of the Victorian era, extraordinary design and flexible living with sunroom extension & private backyard at a compelling alternative comparable to a Brooklyn, LIC, NY space. Home offers a bonus permittable STR generating $2500-4000 income or use as an in-law suite. Set on tree-lined Astor Place in Bergen Hill, this brownstone-style rowhome underwent an extensive multi-year restoration and renovation by a celebrated interior designer, preserving its circa-1890s character while introducing new plumbing, electrical systems and improvements completed to applicable building-code requirements. Every floor has its own distinct design personality. Original architectural elements part restored and renovated mingle with custom cabinetry, original millwork, luxury finishes & modern utility with WIFI enabled features, Ann Sacks floor tile adorn the bathrooms, Bedrosians feathered tile in rooms, one-of-a-kind and Kelly Wearstler lighting, repurposed antique doorknobs, salvaged pocket doors and an 1800s wrought-iron fence sourced from a Brooklyn brownstone. Even storage becomes art, including a custom shoe-shelf installation designed as a sculptural closet feature. The main living area showcases custom feathered tile treatments and French doors. Restored pocket doors reveal the formal dining room and its custom tambour fireplace mantel, while double-arched doorways and restored woodwork frame the original staircase. The designer kitchen pairs Fisher & Paykel appliances, Bosch dishwasher, Faber exhaust and custom cabinetry with an all-season sunroom extension opening to a backyard designed for entertaining with grill, stone counter and refrigerator. The second floor offers three highly curated rooms adaptable for sleeping, working and relaxing—including a home office and an unforgettable guest room incorporating 27 colors. The entire top floor becomes a private primary retreat with a refinished original fireplace mantel, wall-length picture shelving and walk-in closet. The en-suite bath combines a custom grid-glass shower with the original claw-foot tub and heated Arabescato Italian marble floors, controllable by keypad or Wi-Fi. For entrepreneurs, tech professionals and remote workers, Cat 6A cabling, high-speed connectivity and Wi-Fi-enabled automation make the home's historic setting decidedly modern. A bonus ground-level studio provides additional flexibility as a guest or in-law suite, with potential for other permitted uses subject to municipal approval. Outside your door is a growing neighborhood culture of independent cafés, restaurants, entrepreneurs, parks and community events (Jazz & Restaurant Fest), Common Earth, and multiple cafes dotting along the neighborhood, Berry Lane Park and Lincoln Park are nearby, along with Light Rail and bus 87 connections. Grove Street PATH, Journal Square is just under one mile away, providing direct access to NYC every 10 minutes even on weekends. Have a car? Street has ample parking space as needed. For the style maven and discerning client who notices every detail, 41 Astor isn't simply renovated - it is collected, artfully curated and intentionally designed with all the luxury finishes.
