Gilded Age Carriage House in the Heart of Broadway Offered for Sale: Historic 1850s Carriage House Times Square / Theater District Tucked away just minutes from the dazzling lights of Broadways most celebrated stages, this extraordinary 1850s Carriage House is a singular offering in the heart of Manhattan. Rich in character and steeped in history, the property transports you to the romance and elegance of New Yorks Gilded Age-when horse-drawn carriages lined cobblestone streets and the citys artistic legacy was just beginning to take root. Accessed through the original horse passageway from the street, the property opens into a mid-block private courtyard-a rare urban oasis that feels worlds away from the surrounding energy of Times Square. Reminiscent of the charm of the French Quarter, this courtyard sets the stage for a truly one-of-a-kind residence. Once home to the Menconi brothers-renowned sculptors behind the historic flagpole bases at the New York Public Library-the building carries a rich artistic legacy. Its cinematic character has also made it a sought-after filming location, with appearances in Bullets Over Broadway, Deconstructing Harry, Law & Order, and Blue Bloods, among others. Ascending the granite steps from the courtyard leads you to a charming front porch, where youll find access to a private roof terrace above the original stables. This outdoor space is ideal for planting herbs and flowers and creates a tranquil seating area perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation. Passing into the home, youre greeted by a vestibule featuring stained glass windows, casting warm, colorful light across the entry. From here, you can access either a flexible auxiliary office/bedroom suite-once a self-contained studio apartment-or enter the grand living room, complete with high ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace. The adjacent dining area offers ample space for entertaining. Glass-paned doors lead into the thoughtfully designed kitchen, which also features a pass-through that can be closed off to reveal a stunning stained-glass panel. This level offers a balance of historic charm and modern function, designed to enhance both comfort and character. The upper floor includes a spacious primary bedroom with a second wood-burning fireplace, a windowed bathroom with a soaking tub, a second bedroom with corner windows, a third bathroom with a walk-in shower, and a washer/dryer closet for added convenience. What truly sets this home apart is its architecture- a freestanding, interior-block structure with windows on all four sides, offering an abundance of natural light and an unparalleled sense of privacy in the heart of Midtown Manhattan.
