Property Description for 62 Jane Street

Stop and admire 62 Jane, built in 1849 in regal Greek Revival style. Imagine sitting on extra-wide grey stone stoop capped by original ornate wrought-iron railings that date back 172 years.

Located on a tree-lined block in the heart of the West Village, this turnkey five-story home features a harmonious layout with many original details, on a 22' x 48' lot.

Enter the parlor floor and be greeted by a meticulous two-and-a-half-year restoration led by renowned architects Kathryn Ogawa and Gilles Depardon, who have preserved all the original details--the 11' ceilings, the wide plank floors, the staircase, the fireplace, and the French windows, still featuring the original shutters. Take a seat in the formal dining room, with its own wet bar. Watch the sunlight stream through the floor-to-ceiling glass curtain wall facing the backyard to the south.

Then head downstairs to garden level, where the ceilings have been heightened and the open kitchen features Shinnoki cabinets by Japanese craftsman Yuji Kurosu. Through folding glass doors, an informal living room opens onto the garden terrace to create an indoor / outdoor living space.

A stairway leads down to the guest room / den, which was excavated to create full height ceilings throughout, along with generous storage, laundry room, and a mechanical room. Hidden concrete buttress reinforcement supports the vertical steel beams and reinforced brickwork.

Now head up to the bedrooms. The second floor hosts two bedrooms, each with its own ensuite bathroom. One of them faces the quiet backyard gardens hidden within the block. The other features a fireplace, bookshelves, and three windows facing picturesque Jane Street.

Continue to the floor above, where the primary bedroom floor includes a gracious suite, a walk-in closet, skylights, and a fireplace. The roof has been raised and leveled to create not only a higher primary bedroom ceiling, but also a flat functional roof space.

One flight up, you will be able to access the roof deck through an enclosed sunroom, equipped with its own wet bar. Walk outside to enjoy unobstructed northern and southern protected views, with sunshine from dawn to sunset.

Additional features of 62 Jane include: a Siedle door with camera/remote doorbell and lock-control; Lutron lighting system with remote management; Lucifer LED lights; Ethernet cabling and mesh Wi-Fi system throughout; a gas generator; water filtration and water pressure booster systems; a 240-volt outlet under the stoop for electric vehicle charging; upgraded electrical throughout; alarm and security system with camera; sprinkler system throughout; humidifiers on every floor; and roof and garden automated irrigation.

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.
