Property Description for 307 West 4th Street

> The ultimate in luxury living awaits in the heart of the West Village. Situated on arguably one of the best blocks in the neighborhood, this sun flooded, five story, 20 foot wide townhouse has been lovingly restored and designed to suit even the most discerning palate. Warm radiant quarter sawn white oak flooring is offset by custom made steel casement windows and doors. Mahogany trim and solid core doors evoke the historic nature of the house while modern conveniences such as a hydraulic elevator (that travels from the cellar to the roof), a central vacuum system, whole house humidifier, intercom on all levels, pre-wiring for a home automation system and 10 zones of central heat and air conditioning elevate the home to cutting edge status. A state-of-the-art security system protects your investment by way of 16 discreet cameras as well as motion, heat, water and glass break sensors. > Parlor Floor: Enter the house into the grand parlor featuring two wood burning fireplaces, 10 ½ foot ceilings, a white Cararra clad powder room and Calacatta gold marble wet bar. Configured as a living room, sitting room and dining room, this floor is as grand as it is elegant. > Garden Level: The chef's kitchen showcases custom millwork cabinetry, Calacatta gold marble countertops and backsplash as well as a 48 inch Wolf range with exterior venting, pot filler, Sub-Zero integrated, under-counter and wine refrigerators, Miele dishwasher, speed oven and coffee/espresso station. Enjoy mornings seated at the built-in breakfast nook in front of the black marble gas fireplace. This space opens to the exceptionally private garden via steel bi-fold 16 foot wide floor-to-ceiling custom designed doors. Silver travertine (complete with snow melt technology) and Ipe wood fencing surround the irrigated greenery. Surround sound speakers set the mood. Also on this level, a guest bedroom and white Carrara full bathroom offer a quiet retreat. > Cellar: Silver travertine heated flooring, sun filled skylight and custom millwork make this a comfortable place to unwind. A 1,000 bottle temperature controlled mahogany wine room helps relax one even further. The large vented laundry room with utility sink adds to the conveniences of the home. A powder room, A/V control closet and house mechanicals complete the cellar. > Third Floor: The third floor is comprised of two well-proportioned bedrooms with en-suite white Carrara marble bathrooms complete with Duravit commodes and Zuma soaking tubs. A private terrace, facing the garden, perfects the east facing bedroom. For conveniences, the third floor also offers an additional washer and dryer. > Master Suite (Fourth Floor): A generously sized master bedroom is warmed by a black marble wrapped wood burning fireplace. Step out onto the private terrace and enjoy the lovely garden view. Pass through custom-built closets to the luxurious master bathroom featuring a dual rain head steam shower, free standing deep soaking tub and double vanity. The mosaic floor composed of white Carrara marble sparkles in the sun courtesy of three west facing windows. > Roof: Take the stairs (or the elevator!) all the way to the roof and lounge amidst fully irrigated planted trees. The Ipe hardwood decking is both durable and attractive, adding to the ambiance of this unique oasis. > The West Village is home to chic cafes, world class shopping and historic landmarks. Once called "Little Bohemia," the West Village features classic artist's lofts, charming townhouses as well as new residential towers along the Hudson River. Angled "off the grid," tree-lined, sun filled streets add to the intimate, residential feel of the neighborhood. Steps from beautiful Hudson River Park and mere blocks from the hip scene offered in the Meatpacking District, The West Village offers something for all of its denizens.

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.
