Property Description for 245 West 13th Street

Located in the heart of the West Village across from Jackson Square Park sits 245 West 13th Street, a luxurious, sun-drenched, 21-foot wide 4,500 square foot spacious townhouse.

Superbly crafted, this updated home exudes elegance throughout combining gorgeous 19th century details with modern day luxuries. No detail was overlooked when renovating this home which is spread over four sun-flooded floors of living space, plus ample garden- and parlor-level outdoor spaces, a finished cellar, and six restored wood burning fireplaces.

Enter this finely crafted home up the impressive front stoop where you are immediately drawn in by the bright red front door, an exact replica of the original from 1855. Upon entry into the parlor level, you are lead into the entry vestibule complete with antique, hand-carved french doors. A beautiful and grand, double scaled living room on this floor is complete with two wood burning fire places with original marble mantels. Access a tranquil outdoor terrace fully equipped with irrigation and sound systems.

The garden level is bright and expansive, illuminated by four oversized skylights and a wall of floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open onto the large, sunny private garden. The gourmet kitchen features a Wolf 6 burner stove plus grill and vented oven, Subzero refrigerator, Wolf microwave, Miele dishwasher and Granite counter-tops with custom tiled backsplash. This level also features a wood burning fire place, dining area, family room, guest bedroom with large ensuite bath, and a powder room.

The third and fourth floor bedroom levels are accessed via a restored staircase complete with vintage banisters sourced from New York's famed Plaza Hotel. The exquisite and bright master suite occupies the entire third level and contains brand new large windows with three exposures- southern, northern and eastern - thanks to a former horse path flanking the house and allowing for additional air and light. A wood burning fireplace, custom outfitted dressing room / walk-in closet, and lavish master bathroom with a copper soaking tub and stall shower complete this floor.

The fourth floor has two bedrooms, with a full bathroom, and an oversized living area containing 12' ceilings, two wood burning fireplaces. Some of the additional details include 5-inch-wide white oak water coil radiant heated floors, multi-zone air conditioning, water purification system, Sonos-controlled surround sound, and a security system.

There are approximately 1,476 feet of unused AIR rights.

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.
