Property Description for 59 West 12th Street, 16-A

BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. A unique and rare opportunity to live in a palatial two bedroom, two bathroom apartment with over 400sqft of private outdoor living. Primed to perfection and move-in ready, no layout within the building is like this one. Offering east, west, and south exposures from the interior, the living room as well as both bedrooms are south facing and flooded with natural sunlight. Each of the generously sized bedrooms has its own bath and walk-in closets. Tastefully redone live/dine areas reflect open concept living while still keeping the charm of its prewar details; 11ft beamed ceilings, working wood-burning fireplace, over 1ft high baseboard molding and original oak hardwood floors. Designed and reimagined, the cook's kitchen has been newly renovated, fitted with custom cabinets, Viking cooktop, and other designer grade stainless steel appliances.

Views forever! Step through one of two sets of french doors onto an expansive setback wrap terrace that runs the entire length of the apt. Majestic views abound from W.12th Street all the way to lower Manhattan, the water and beyond, capturing a stunning day and nighttime panorama of downtown's city skyline. Landmark protection guarantees views and into perpetuity.

59 West 12th Street is one of the most sought after prewar condominium buildings, located on a beautiful tree lined block in the prestigious Gold Coast section of Greenwich Village. Designed by renowned architect Emery Roth and developed by Bing and Bing, this building has a doorman, laundry room, playroom, and is pet friendly. Centrally located just off 6th Avenue, its just a short jaunt to all major forms of transportation, Union Square, Washington Square Park, West Village, High Line, restaurants and boutique shops galore.

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.
