Property Description for 720 Greenwich Street, 1-R

Airy, pre-war duplex loft in the heart of the West Village This sophisticated West Village duplex features soaring 14+ foot barrel-vaulted ceilings and incredible natural light shining through a row of 10-foot tall windows looking East over Greenwich Street. Residence 1R is the quintessential downtown loft, balancing industrial pre-war elements with 21st century design to create a cohesive, contemporary home. On the entry level, the open kitchen hosts a high-end stainless steel appliance package (Miele range, Bosch DW, Electrolux fridge), ample workspace, a walk-in pantry, and additional bar seating. Just beyond, a grand-scale living space and separate dining area create the ideal atmospheres for entertaining or a cozy night at home. Dramatic, double-height brick walls anchor the living and dining areas offering the perfect opportunity to display an extensive art collection. Newly installed automatic blinds and a spacious full bath complete this floor. The second floor is currently configured as an open floorplan, with a separate area for sleeping and a designated workspace looking out onto idyllic Greenwich Street. With over 7' ceilings on the upper level, conversion to a formal 1 BD would be a simple project for the next shareholder, should they choose. This home has incredible storage space (three large closets and built in shelving) and well-kept hardwood floors throughout. Private, quiet, and expansive, Apartment 1R is a true sanctuary on one of the most desirable streets in the West Village. 720 Greenwich is a landmarked, former printing warehouse converted to a coop in the 1990s. Amenities include a full-time live-in Resident Manager/ Super, part-time doorperson (8 am-12am daily), laundry rooms on every floor, and the opportunity to join a private, members-only, roof garden. Bike storage, storage lockers and garage on site for an additional fee (pending availability). Generous board policies; pet friendly; pied-a-terre, guarantors, co-purchase, parents purchasing for/with children and gifting allowed. The location (on the corner of Greenwich and Perry) is a stone's throw from some of the best bars, restaurants, galleries and nightlife in the city -- including L'Artsui, Red Farm, Cafe Kitsune, Dante's WV, Employees Only, and many more. Nearby transit is available on the 1/2/3, A/C/B/D/F/M and PATH; other options include numerous Citibike stations (including one right near the building) and quick access to the West Side Highway and Hudson River Park.

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.
