Property Description for 39 West 10th Street

Unique and incredibly rare opportunity to expand and restore an historic single-family townhouse in a prime Greenwich Village “Gold Coast” location. Built in 1838-1839, 39 West 10th Street is a superb 24.5’ wide landmark Greek Revival townhouse located among historic homes on one of New York’s most coveted tree-lined blocks. Offered for sale with filed & approved plans by AD100 architect Steven Harris, the home has been gutted in preparation for renovation, allowing a purchaser to fast-track construction & select all finishes & interior details. The proposed plans carefully preserve the historically significant features of the home, while creating living spaces designed for modern convenience. With extensive outdoor space on 5 different levels, this will be one of the finest & most unique houses downtown.

Upon entry into the garden level, a large foyer will lead to a guest suite, a hall with central stair & elevator, an expansive, double-height studio/library, a laundry room, half bath, & access to the lush rear garden. The parlor level will include a grand living room spanning the width of the house, dining room, powder room and a dramatic eat-in chef’s kitchen. The kitchen's wall of steel casement windows & doors opens onto a glass-paved terrace with stairs down to the gorgeous private garden. All three parlor rooms include 12’4” ceilings & wood-burning fireplaces. The 2nd floor will provide three bedroom suites & a second laundry room. A lavish master suite with walk-in closet, master bath & stunning terrace will encompass the 3rd floor, while the light-filled penthouse level will be ideal for a family room/office with upper & lower rooftop terraces.

This is truly a remarkable offering in a fabulous Central Village location.

Greenwich Village | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Birthplace of beatniks, Greenwich Village has always been a neighborhood bursting with creativity, home to artists, poets, musicians and writers. There is a lot of foot traffic in the neighborhood, as it gives convenient access to many other neighborhoods. There are a lot of popular eateries on MacDougal Street and bars on Bleecker Street. The neighborhood has a bit of a college-town feel, due to the presence of NYU. There aren’t large chain stores here, so it isn’t really a mecca for shopaholics, but you can find interesting vintage stores and specialty boutiques.

Available housing is centered on pre-war walk-ups. You can find good deals on the quieter, tree-lined side streets, as opposed to the bustling avenues. There are pockets of brownstones and townhouses, some dating back to the early 19th century, throughout the neighborhood, as well. You will find more luxurious housing in the newer high-rise buildings on Park and Fifth Avenues.

Washington Square Park is the heart of the neighborhood. If you sit near the Arch and close your eyes, you might catch an echo of the music and social history of the Park, floating through the air. Greats like Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, and Paul Simon started their storied careers right here in Greenwich Village. Today, the Village is a celebration of diversity, where everyone is welcome.
