Property Description for 708 Washington Street, 4-A

Mint-Renovated West Village Cooperative The Apartment: This mint condition two bedroom, one bathroom cooperative features sunny northeastern and southwestern exposures facing out onto tree tops and the West Village streetscape. Situated on a semi-private landing, this apartment opens onto a foyer and adjacent 285-square-foot living room equipped with a large built-in bookcase and ample space for gracious seating and dining areas. Renovated by the current owners, Apartment 4A includes a tasteful white kitchen equipped with subway tile, chrome fixtures, granite countertops and some glass-fronted cabinets. A similarly elegant bathroom includes a marble-topped sink and storage vanity, flush-mounted medicine cabinet, chrome fixtures, a subway-tiled shower--and a traditional New York checkerboard-tiled floor. Additional upgrades to this apartment include a washer/dryer, through-the-wall air conditioning in every room - and new hardwood floors. Coat closets line the hallway from which both the bathroom and two bedrooms are accessed. As this floor plan spends little square footage on hallways in general, space in this half of the apartment is put to work in the form of two very graciously-sized bedrooms, measuring 20' x 9'7" and 15'10" x 9'3", respectively. The Building: West Village Houses is a large, financially stable, well-maintained cooperative - which includes 42 buildings in total. Shareholders benefit from two onsite superintendents, a management office and a security office - a bike storage, laundry, and numerous common gardens, all of which are accessible to shareholders. This is a pet-friendly cooperative. The Neighborhood: Located on a tree-lined block in the heart of the West Village - one of the world's most coveted residential neighborhoods - this home is surrounded by historic architecture, desirable shopping, lauded dining and plentiful nightlife. Hudson River Park is situated one block to the west, and provides access to abundant outdoor space including extensive bike and running paths, piers and numerous parks. The High Line, the Whitney, Little Island and Washington Square Park are all within easy reach of this location, as are numerous grocery stores and the Bleecker Street playground. Nearby subway access includes the 1, A/C/E, B/D/F/M and PATH trains, while a Citi Bike station is right outside your door.

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.
