King St

This historic Soho townhouse was completely transformed for modern living in the city. The landmarked facade dating back to 1827 was preserved and restored while the bulk of the existing overbuilt rear extension was completely demolished and reconfigured to create an expansive 23 foot wide townhouse.

The interior was completely rebuilt to custom specifications including a grand curving staircase, custom stone vanities and built-in millwork throughout. One of the big challenges was connecting the garden level floor to the rear grade elevation. An opening in the parlor floor makes for a dramatic double height family room with a steel framed window wall overlooking a lush landscaped rear yard. A matching stone floor and retractable doors further provide continuity with the space outside.

The exterior spaces were as thoughtfully conceived as the interiors with several intimately scaled multilayered gardens woven throughout home culminating in a peaceful rooftop oasis.
