Behind this $4.7M SF duplex, a magical parklike garden awaits

"The duplex, with its buttery rose exterior and cream wood trim, offers a preserved example of Edwardian architecture. From the Juliet balconies in front to the wainscotting, crown molding and original hardwood floors inside, the building is true to its turn-of-the century vintage."

"The penthouse suite above was built in 1928. In addition, both units feature renovated kitchens and updated bathrooms. The duplex totals 4,026 square feet. In the top unit, there are four bedrooms and two bathrooms."

"This garden, thanks to its size and beauty, feels like a private park. Seller Roberto Martinelli explained that his mother, Camille Martinelli, was its mastermind and caretaker."
