Property Description for 26 Bedford Street, 1-A
SECOND FLOOR SWEETHEART
(Just 1 Flight Up)
Perfect Pied-A-Terre -- Gifting, Guarantors, and One-Party-Buying-For-Another Welcome (case by case)
"Well, I never had a place that I could call my very own But that's all right, my love, 'cause you're my home." Billy Joel
All the classic fairy tales begin with, "once upon a time." This enchanting Village valentine turns that old adage on its head. One easy flight up and right on the treeline, this soulful stunner unfolds beautifully -- artfully -- grabbing you by your heartstrings and taking you right to "happily ever after."
Above you, the ceilings soar extra high; underfoot are historic wood floors planked from the boat of an old sea captain; and all around you is beauty -- a perfect union of form and function. The living space is intimate, but packs a big, heartwarming punch. With two large, West-facing windows, an open kitchen (ideal for a dining bar), smart closet/storage space, and a bonus repurposed closet/office with a handsome barn door, life here is easy, creative, and fun. Served by a windowed bath with cast-iron soaking tub, this creative and inspiring home stirs the imagination and soothes the soul.
Pristinely perched in its historic, boutique, pet and pied a terre friendly, early 1900s building (where one can rent out their apartment after owning for 2 years), this easy-to-love sweetheart offers a quintessentially Village lifestyle in a world class location. Nearby is every downtown cultural, dining, shopping, and fitness destination, not to mention supreme access to nearby Washington Square Park, Sheridan Square, Hudson River Park, and a plethora of easy transportation options (C & E at Spring; 1 at Houston; A,C,E,B,D,F, & M at W4th).
Once upon a time there was a rare Village classic -- a winsome historic treasure with a front row seat to a legendary neighborhood. Your happy-ever-after home starts right here.
(Low monthly maintenance fee includes taxes, heat, hot and cold water, and building upkeep. Guarantors, gifting, and one party buying for another all welcome on a case-by-case basis.)

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.
