48 Franklin Court E

Century-old Franklin Court is an architectural gem tucked behind Country Life Press Station. The attached stucco homes with stone-walled gardens were built to evoke picturesque English Cotswold cottages. Known as the Mews, they went up beginning in 1908 for the bookbinders from Europe who worked a quick stroll away at Doubleday, Page, and Company. Sunny, sophisticated, 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath,end-unit with a side yard that has all the modern updates but still retains its historic charm. The home features both a formal dining room and formal living room, as well as a first-floor half bath. There is an eat-in kitchen with a Viking range and hood that opens to a great room with cathedral ceilings and extra tall French doors which give access to the glorious, uber-private walled garden with perennial plantings. The second floor boasts a primary bedroom with an ensuite bath and large closets, two additional bedrooms, and a full hall bath. The full walk-up third floor is a huge bonus!
