Property Description for 159 West 13th Street

Among a row of handsome brick townhouses on leafy W 13th Street, 159 W 13th Street was built in 1847 in the Greek Revival style. The fa?ade was later altered and refinished. A grand residence, this townhouse spans a total of 8,180 square feet (6,183 interior including basement and 1,996 exterior). A prime Greenwich Village location, this special townhouse is a four unit coop building consisting of full-floor lofts. Original details include 10? ceilings, hardwood floors, exposed brick, cherry wood crown moldings and baseboards, fireplaces, and grand proportions. Other perks include distinct entry foyers with beautiful tilework, custom-built-ins, updated windowed kitchens, marble baths, ample storage space, walk-in closets, through-wall air, and a 4th floor washer dryer. This townhouse truly has much to offer the next lucky owner.

There are multiple outdoor spaces including a large front garden, unique solarium, 27? back garden, and two terraces- a true oasis in the middle of the village. The double height vaulted ceilings and skylights on the 4th floor create a grand impression. Views of charming tree-lined W 13th Street as well as the back gardens enhance the house with nice light and a feeling of tranquility and incredible quiet.

This is a great opportunity for an investor looking for an income producing property, a developer who would like to create a grand single-family townhouse, or an end user who would like to live with income. The ground level has the possibility of commercial use with great income potential. The building will be delivered vacant. Central village location in close proximity to transportation, top restaurants, art galleries, parks, and everything downtown living has to offer. Potential FAR available.

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.
