Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
487 Henry Street is a reimagined 19th-century townhouse residence originally built between 1844 and 1845 by Jacob Frost. The original stoop, proportions, and rhythmic facade remain intact, while the interiors have been reconceived across five floors in a more open, connected layout. Spanning 6,271 square feet, the home offers five bedrooms, four full bathrooms, and two powder rooms, plus about 2,024 square feet of private outdoor space.
Designed and developed by ECKSTROM, with collaboration from General Assembly, the parlor level centers on entertaining with generous ceiling heights and a natural flow between living and dining. The kitchen opens directly to a private garden, and the residence also includes a wellness retreat with a fitness studio, sauna, and cold plunge. Additional features include multiple family rooms, two outdoor kitchens, and two landscaped roof decks described as offering sweeping skyline views. Interior finishes reference a restrained palette, including flat-sawn white oak floors and countertops of marble, walnut, and quartzite.
