Property Description for 35 Bethune Street, MAISC

A rare prewar gem in the sought-after Far West Village, 35 Bethune Street, Maisonette C is an impressive three-bedroom, three-bathroom triplex located in the coveted Pickwick House Condominium. Ideally situated on a quiet, tree-lined block between Washington and Greenwich Streets, the residence has been exquisitely updated throughout, and boasts unparalleled volume and original details across three levels. With over 2,100 square feet of interior living space and multiple outdoor areas, this exceptional home offers townhouse living in a boutique prewar condominium loft building.

Upon entering on the first level, one is first struck by the soaring 24-foot ceiling that spans all three levels and showcases the original wood beams and joists at its pinnacle. On this level, the living room features a wood-burning fireplace, bar, and multiple built-in shelves, and opens to a private patio that is pin-drop quiet and provides the perfect space for al fresco entertaining. Additionally, there is a large bedroom with views onto the patio, a spacious home office area with ample built-in storage and shelving, and a full bathroom finished in marble with a glass-enclosed shower and floor heating by Nuheat.

On the second level, a tastefully designed Bulthaup kitchen opens to the large dining room which overlooks the bright and airy living room. The kitchen is appointed with granite countertops and premium appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Gaggenau cooktop, and Miele oven and dishwasher. Also on this level is another bedroom with custom built-ins, and a full bathroom.

Crowning Maisonette C on the third level is a private master retreat. Along the hallway is a large cedar-lined walk-in closet with built-in shelving, a second spacious closet, and a full-length glass wall overlooking the two floors below. The master bedroom has its own private terrace, offering indoor-outdoor living at its finest. The en-suite, spa-like bathroom is clad in marble and has a large soaking tub with chrome Dornbracht fixtures and a separate Mr. Steam shower. Heated floors and a double vanity complete this space.

Other noteworthy highlights of this home include 5-inch wide-plank maple flooring and built-in speakers throughout, four separate central AC zones, a GE Profile washing machine and Miele dryer, and a convenient service entrance.

The historic Pickwick House Condominium at 35 Bethune Street is an intimate six-story converted loft factory building with a stately brick facade. Originally constructed in 1886 by Gustavus Isaacs, the address was formerly home to Charles F. Biele & Sons Co. and the Pickwick Paper Company. 35 Bethune is now one of the few residential prewar condominium properties in the Far West Village with only 22 residences and an elevator. The lobby is adorned with vintage black & white photography of New York City, a chandelier, and a beamed ceiling signature to many of the residences. Abingdon Square, Bleecker Playground, the Hudson River Greenway and Whitney Museum of American Art are moments away.

West Village | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Known for its high-end shopping on Bleecker Street, the elegant brownstones dating back to colonial times that have been depicted in films and television, the abundance of cafes, and its celebrity residents, the West Village neighborhood is what springs to mind when you think of the essence of New York City. This is a neighborhood where the pace of life is less hurried, and harried, than in other neighborhoods, exuding an understated elegance and naturally beautiful sophistication and charm. 

The West Village has something to offer everyone, whether your taste runs to designer goods and trend-setting restaurants, or you are happier browsing thrift stores and whiling away the hours in conversation with friends at a hole-in-the-wall coffee shop. There are public green spaces dotted throughout this neighborhood, where you can stop and commune with nature, or grab a bite to eat from a local deli or cafe and have a picnic. The Hudson River Park offers recreational opportunities and events for all ages.

There is a tradition of bohemian non-conformity attached to the West Village. Even the intimate, tree-lined, and sometimes cobblestoned, streets refuse to conform to the grid layout of the rest of Manhattan. Activism and social consciousness have always been hallmarks of this neighborhood. The neighborhood is diverse and accepting of all. You will find artistic venues and experimental theater, together with a broad spectrum of bars, including speakeasies, and restaurants featuring myriad cuisines.

The West Village is primarily residential, conspicuously lacking the high-rise office buildings that characterize other neighborhoods. This lends an air of quiet sophistication during the day. At night, the area becomes more lively, as residents frequent their favorite restaurants, theaters, cafes, and gastropubs. Housing consists of brownstones dating back to the 18th century, low-rise walk-ups, townhouses, artists lofts, and condos in renovated buildings. Newer high-rise residential buildings are cropping up along the Hudson River. Always popular with celebrities and artistic types, the West Village is now attracting families and young professionals in the tech and financial fields.
