Property Description for 171 West 12th Street, 6-C
No expense was spared to create this magnificent 2 Bedroom jewel in the heart of the West Village. With meticulous attention to detail, every inch has been renovated to perfection, creating a sophisticated urban residence blending prewar charm with contemporary style.
Entering through a Foyer opening to a grandly proportioned Living and Dining Room, one is immediately struck by the scale, light and views afforded by this unique space. Soaring ceiling heights up to 11 feet and a large restored casement window frame north-facing views over gardens and the city skyline extending to the Empire State Building and beyond. A small balcony provides outdoor space. The Living Room is accented by a honed Nublado marble- clad wood burning fireplace adding a warm yet contemporary touch. Solid oak floors and doors are featured throughout. A windowed open-plan kitchen, offset from the entertaining area, features custom cabinetry, a white Carrara marble island, Gaggeneau and Sub-Zero appliances and Lefroy Brooks fixtures. Tucked discreetly off the kitchen is a windowed Pantry providing additional storage. A large Master Bedroom fully outfitted with a wall of custom designed closets offers the same tranquil beautiful views. There is a second well-proportioned bedroom. A spa Bathroom is outfitted with a glass-enclosed shower, radiant heated limestone floors, Rosa Aurora marble walls and Lefroy Brooks fixtures. The comfort of modern living is further enhanced by central air conditioning and European crafted bronze Meljac control panels to operate motorized window treatments and lights throughout the home.
Located in a beautifully maintained circa 1922 boutique elevator cooperative on one of the most highly coveted tree-lined streets the home retains the charm of a bygone era blended with the modern sensibility of this home. Exceptionally low monthly maintenance and a high tax deduction make the operating costs of owning this home very appealing. The building has a common Laundry Room, Garden, live-in Superintendent and dedicated storage space allocated to the apartment

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.
