Walk right up to this perfect specimen of Village living! The two-bedroom, two-bath home sits comfortably at the crossroads of the East and West Villages, in a building designed by James Renwick Jr., who is best known for his work on St. Patrick Cathedral and the nearby Grace Church. You'll enter into a proper foyer with exposed brick walls and plenty of room to hang your hat. Turn left, and find yourself in an open-plan great room with a kitchen designed by the celebrity NYC chef who once called this apartment home. Think Viking oven, Miele dishwasher, and a double door refrigerator large enough to keep a foodie fed. A marble-topped island seats three.At the end of the great room lies the spacious Master bedroom with en suite bath, walk-in custom-designed closet, and wood-burning fireplace. Your second airy bedroom?located on the opposite side of the entry foyer?boasts French doors, built-in bookcases, a second wood-burning fireplace, and room enough for a separate seating area. The split bedroom layout affords you privacy from guests and children alike. More apartment features include: gorgeous Cherry and Oak wood plank flooring throughout, purposefully placed ceiling arches, and a unique arch-top wooden Master bedroom door. The ceilings and select walls are finished in Venetian plaster.Built in 1880 and converted into a co-op in 1981, The Lancaster is a pet-friendly and pedigreed building. Take advantage of its proximity to the Union Square greenmarket and Whole Foods, as well as outstanding downtown restaurants and nightlife. All major subways and the PATH train are within a short walking distance. Residents have access to not one but two tranquil common outdoor spaces: a backyard and a courtyard.
