With three bedrooms, three bathrooms and expansive living space, this 21-foot-wide townhouse is an ideal destination for peaceful relaxation and lavish entertaining. Arrive on the parlor level to discover a sprawling living room featuring original wide-plank pine floors and a relined, working wood-burning fireplace surrounded by the original carved mantelpiece. Chic Jean Prouvé-inspired porthole shutters decorate classic six-over-six windows throughout the home. A sunroom dazzles with conservatory windows that soar over new Cle herringbone brick flooring and a custom modern handrailing. Enjoy all-season sunlight in this special space while a custom-built bar and beverage center keep refreshments close at hand. A glass door here leads to the home's ultra-private outdoor space, a lovely terrace ideal for al fresco dining and lounging surrounded by a planted wall and outdoor shower. An expanded and reimagined gourmet kitchen surrounded by custom cabinetry and millwork extends to the adjacent dining banquette and table. Herringbone brick paves the floors, while the conservatory windows frame a glimpse of the terrace above. Gray tile and stone counters run alongside a fleet of upscale appliances, including a BlueStar range and Miele dishwasher. A welcoming guest room on this level boasts exposed beam ceilings, a Piet Hein Eek custom-built bed frame and a brick fireplace that served as the original kitchen stove. Positioned within the original root cellar, an extraordinary full bathroom includes a remarkable coved steam room with rain shower, modern open vanity, Duravit SensoWash commode, Studio Ore fixtures, cedar walls and a porthole door. Ascend the elegant original staircase to the second level to discover a renovated full-floor owner's retreat where a custom slat feature wall adds visual intrigue while concealing closets alongside the working fireplace. Pocket doors open the king-size bedroom to a sunny en suite spa bathroom featuring an oversized walk-in rain shower, gold hardware and floating vanity with a stone trough sink that matches the bedroom's modern mantelpiece. Positioned below the home's expanded dormer window and spectacular skylights, the top floor is a flexible space ideal as a luxurious home office, lounge or third bedroom suite. Multiple closets, a new in-unit washer-dryer and a remodeled windowed bath with Cle terrazzo tile and Studio Ore hardware complete the level.

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.
