Property Description for 53 Horatio Street, 1

Stunning West Village house within a house. 53 Horatio Street is a fully renovated and charming three bedroom, four bathroom co-operative enveloped in a quintessential 1848 Federal townhouse. Ideally positioned on a tree lined, cobblestone West Village block, this sun-filled home offers a rare blend of prewar details including four wood burning fireplaces and exposed brick throughout juxtaposed against a modern renovation.

The spacious parlor floor, bathed in sunlight from a South facing oversized window, has an open floor plan that can be configured to accommodate multiple living and sitting areas. A beautiful, original wood burning fireplace is set within an exposed brick wall. A custom built-in banquette functions as seating for casual dining or relaxing and built in shelving provide additional storage. Additionally, there is an elegantly renovated powder bath outfitted with top of the line Waterworks fixtures and tile.

The second level is home to a large bedroom with 10’ ceilings, a second wood burning fireplace and exposed brick wall. This room is flooded with natural light through generously sized South facing windows. It currently functions as a children’s bedroom, clad in Farrow and Ball wallpaper, but could be easily converted to a Master bedroom or secondary living room. An ensuite full bath has been renovated with Waterworks fixtures and a bathtub.

On the top floor a generous master bedroom provides great privacy and separation from the lower level living spaces. The exposure here is also South facing with a wood burning fireplace and fully built out deep storage closets. The master bathroom has been tastefully renovated with Waterworks fixtures and features a large walk in shower.

True to many other historic West Village townhouses, a mint condition kitchen is located on the garden level. The kitchen was completely renovated in 2016 and outfitted with top of the line luxury appliances by Viking, Miele and Sub Zero. An adjacent room offers flexibility as a third bedroom, den or formal dining room with wood burning fireplace. A full bath on this level is equipped with fixtures and finishes by Waterworks, and a wall mounted Toto toilet.

This professionally designed home has been updated with all new plumbing, electrical, lighting and sound system, and a security system.

53 Horatio Street is a 5 story self-managed co-operative building comprised of 6 apartments. Amenities include a part time superintendent and video security. Pets and pied-a-terre are not permitted. Co-purchase, gifting and guarantors are permitted.

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.
