Remember the ridiculous outcry over Jenna Lyons painting her sons toenails in the JCrew catalogue last year!
Her year didn’t get much better. According to Curbed, J.Crew president and creative director Jenna Lyons has been going through a lot this year: the sale of her employer to a private equity shop, a split with her artist husband, a rumored relationship with jewelry exec Courtney Crangi, and now, the sale of the frequently-published, frankly gorgeous Park Slope townhouse bought by the couple for $1.3 million in 2004.
The home, located at 178 Garfield Place, has been a fixture on the glossy home magazine circuit, and is now listed for $3.75M.
This spectacular 1880s North Slope Townhouse, at 20’+/- wide with 4 stories plus a finished cellar, has been impeccably renovated to perfection. Every modern amenity has been added, while a complete restoration has preserved the integrity of the home’s original details. An open double parlor, beautiful (but not fussy) plaster cornices & medallions, aged pine floors, and 7 restored limestone mantels are just a few of the special details of this magnificent house.
The casually chic home boasts 7 bedrooms, 3.5 luxuriously appointed baths, an eat-in cook’s kitchen with top of the line appliances, large private terrace off the master bedroom and a cellar that has been converted to a media room for entertaining. The ground-up renovation includes all new mechanicals, electric and plumbing, 3 zone CAC, new rear façade & roof. The house has a landscaped, irrigated South facing rear garden anchored by a mature Dogwood tree.
If for some reason you cant swing your 3.75MM dollar mortgage, the property is currently set up as a 2-family with renovated garden rental apartment. that should help…..
