576 viewsTucked away just steps from the neon glow of Times Square lies one of Manhattan’s most enchanting secrets: Clinton Court, a hidden courtyard that feels like a portal to another era.
At its heart stands a freestanding 19th-century carriage house at 422 W. 46th St. and inside a two-floor apartment that just hit the market for $3.75 million.
Clinton Court is a secluded enclave in Hell’s Kitchen, accessible through an unassuming alleyway on West 46th Street.
Although closed to the general public, once inside visitors are greeted by a tranquil courtyard surrounded by lush greenery and historic architecture, a stark contrast to the bustling streets just beyond.
The carriage house itself dates back to the 1850s, originally serving as horse stables before its conversion into an art studio by the Menconi Brothers in 1919. Its rich history includes notable residents like actress Elizabeth Ashley and playwright Neil Simon, and it has even appeared in films such as Woody Allen’s Bullets Over Broadway and TV shows like Law & Order and Blue Bloods .
Spanning approximately 1,500 square feet over two floors, the three-bedroom, three-bathroom co-op boasts windows on all sides, offering views of Times Square while maintaining a peaceful ambiance.
Notable features include woodburning fireplaces, stained glass details, and an auxiliary studio with a separate office, bedroom, and bathroom. The home is part of an 18-unit cooperative and it hasn't been on the market since 1981
