130 West 12th Street, 7-C

A sophisticated fusion of pre-war details and modern amenities, this beautifully proportioned 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment possesses idyllic city views of townhouse gardens and village rooftops in a building heralded for green design.

From the foyer, a separate dining area flows into a gorgeous step-down living room, allowing the rooms to flex as a large entertaining space while keeping them distinct for cozy occasions that call for it. The kitchen, bestowed with a pair of eastern-facing windows, is expertly finished with clean crystalline countertops, a marble tile backsplash, polished nickel hardware by Nanz, a sleek, stainless steel farmhouse sink, and a suite of high-end appliances from brands like Bosch, Sub-Zero, and Viking. A horde of white lacquer cabinets provide plenty of storage space.

Winged for privacy, both bedrooms benefit from an abundance of natural light. The Master Bedroom—conveniently across the hall from the washer/dryer unit and linen closet—features an over-sized walk-in closet and an elegant, windowed ensuite bathroom with a large white marble double sink vanity, subway-tiled walls, and custom basket-weave floor tiles. The second bedroom, illuminated by southern and eastern exposure, has a generously-sized reach-in closet and is adjacent to the apartment’s second full bathroom.

The building is a thoroughly renovated pre-war construction whose residential interiors were designed by sustainable design specialists Cook + Fox Architects. Their thoughtful touches—very apparent in 7C—include chevron-patterned hardwood floors, solid-core custom paneled doors, elegant coved ceiling detail, and thermal casement windows. One Thirty West 12’s lobby and corridors were handled by internationally known interior design firm Jed Johnson Associates. The building won the 2012 Sustainable Design Award by Global Green USA and was granted LEED-NC Gold Certification from the US Green Building Council (USCBC). Amenities include a doorman, live-in super, elevator, windowed gym, private storage lockers, and a roof deck with views stretching all the way to the river.

Only steps from the throng of chic restaurants, bars, shops, and markets that populate Greenwich Village and just around the corner from the 1, 2, 3 subway lines, this winsome apartment is ideal for families and entertainers alike.
