Property Description for 146 Waverly Place

Nestled on a picturesque, tree-lined West Village block, 146 Waverly Place is a newly-renovated, 22+ foot wide, 5-story single-family townhome with approximately 8,016 square feet of meticulously finished interior living space. An additional approximately 1,925 square feet is afforded in the planted South garden, terrace, and outstanding roof deck.

Originally built in Greek Revival style in 1839, 146 Waverly Place was recently gut renovated with the highest level of finishes, and re-calibrated to maximize ceiling heights. Superb home features include an elevator serving all levels from the basement to the top floor, sophisticated AV systems with pre-wiring throughout the home to control climate, lighting, shades and irrigation, radiant-floor heating, a humidification system, and ducted, zoned central air-conditioning.

This outstanding residence also affords built-in barbecue grills in both the South garden and sunny roof deck, two full laundry rooms, two fireplaces, and Greige-infused wide-plank oak flooring. All six levels of the home, including the fully finished basement that is built the entire depth of the lot, are connected by a sophisticated sculptural stairway, as well as the home's elevator.

Exceptional sunlight is received throughout, with oversized windows scaling the rear facade, as well as grand front windows that allow for beautiful iconic views of the tree-lined West Village streetscape. Grand room proportions and gracious ceilings make this home ideal for both luxurious everyday living, as well as impressive entertaining.

Perfectly positioned on tree-lined Waverly Place and Gay Street, this grand mansion gives immediate access to some of the best dining and entertainment the Village has to offer. It is also in close proximity to major transportation lines.

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.
