Imagine living in the oldest home in all of Manhattan...

Besides the fact that it just has to be haunted, how chic, no?

Built in 1795 for Nicholas Stuyvesant, the great great grandson of famed city founder Peter Stuyvesant, this East Village Federal-style townhome is a priceless, historic gem. Though technically it does have a price since it just hit the market (for the first time ever) at $8.9 million.

Located at 44 Stuyvesant Street in the St. Marks Place Historic District, the 5,500-square-foot, 24-foot-wide home - boasting 5 bedrooms, 4 and a half bathrooms, an artist studio, soaring ceilings, a gorgeous garden, 8 fireplaces and more! - has remained largely untouched.

Curious to see inside this slice of Dutch New York history?
