320 CONVENT AVENUE - HAMILTON HEIGHTS This limestone corner townhouse with 12 foot ceilings is a gilded age architectural masterpiece. Its 5 floors and 55 foot façade are flooded with light all day long from three sides, due to a rear courtyard.

The home features a classical, columned entrance, distinctive rounded corner tower, and stacked bay windows with historic, and newly restored, stained glass. The natural slate & copper roof has recently been rebuilt according to landmark standards. A wrought iron fence protects the house and its two gardens. The vast spaces of the living-room, foyer, and dining room on the parlor floor, with their 12’4” ceilings, lend themselves to entertaining on a grand scale. Original oak paneling, 2 fireplaces, parquet floors, and leaded-glass windows make this floor spectacular.
