Property Description for 70 East 10th Street, 5-U

Contract signed. The Stewart House is a full-service luxury building situated in the classic part of Greenwich Village that is universally beloved for its historic bohemian enchantment. The site itself has a colorful lineage, as having once been the former space of one of NYC's landmarks, the A.T. Stewart store, regarded as Manhattan's finest department store during a period in the 1800's. It was still in existence a century later in 1956, when it burned down, although it had relocated to Broadway and 10th Street in 1862. The Stewart House stands 21 stories high, plus the penthouse floor, and is prominently set back from the street. It was built in 1960 and designed by architects Sylvan and Robert Bien, well-known for their stylish modern white brick facades. The structure is representative of the best of the early postwar era. Considered one of the most coveted co-op buildings in downtown Manhattan, The Stewart House boasts very low monthly maintenance coupled with unparalleled amenities that include around the clock attentive staff with full time concierge/doorman and live-in super, parking garage with direct building access, in-house gym, common courtyard, laundry center, children's playroom, package room, and bike room. Other features include the rare cachet of a sweeping circular driveway (one of the city's first), and beautifully landscaped gardens that welcome home residents with a refined aura of privacy.

This spacious north-facing 2 bedroom / 2 bathroom apartment features double pane panoramic windows that open out onto the renowned generations-old Grace Church and its sky-piercing majestic spire. A wonderful opportunity awaits to create a tranquil picturesque haven surrounded by mature trees and alive with lush greenery - all in the most desirable of locations. The home's graciously proportioned foyer leads to a separate dining alcove and windowed kitchen, with 2 generously sized bedrooms, separate dressing area, abundant walk-in closets, and charming details throughout.

The Stewart House is mere blocks away from both Washington Square Park and Union Square, as well as countless world-class restaurants, boutique shopping, art galleries, nightlife, and transportation. Cats allowed ; sorry no dogs. W/Ds not permitted in individual units.

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.
