Property Description for 37 West 12th Street, 2-F

An expansive, mint condition, 2 bedroom and 2 bath residence at 37 West 12th Street, the legendary Butterfield House is located on one of the most sought-after blocks in the heart of Gold Coast Greenwich Village. No detail was overlooked in this impeccable renovation by the prolific Jeffrey Cole Architects. A gracious foyer meets you as you enter the home accentuated by striking architectural panels creating the perfect divide from the living space. The expansive living room is large enough to accommodate living, dining, and comfortable entertaining while leaving a generous dining area that can be used as a separate media room, office, or even a third bedroom. Each set of floor-to-ceiling windows features warm custom-built window seats to enjoy the Greenwich Village views. The open kitchen has all the bells and whistles including custom cabinetry and matching paneled appliances. The high-end appliance package includes a SubZero fridge, Bertazoni range and hood, and a Miele dishwasher. Rich white marble Caesarstone and a white subway tile backsplash top off this perfect kitchen. An additional custom-built pantry provides even more storage and a bar area. There are two large bedrooms in a separate wing of the home including the primary bedroom suite which features a fully renovated en suite bath and 2 custom-built walk-in closets and an additional closet with deep shelving. The north-facing windows provide a quiet streetscape setting with built-in window seats and there is plenty of room for a home office. The primary bath is adorned with a beautiful mix of imported tiling, a large rain shower, and the best fixtures and finishes. The generous second bedroom also boasts northern views and two closets including one walk-in. The second full bath is fully renovated featuring stunning floor-to-ceiling glass tiling and a custom vanity and high-end fixtures. Additional features of this designer masterpiece include new solid oak flooring, new windows, new, centrally controlled heat and AC in each room, extensive custom-fitted closet space, and gorgeous architectural details throughout. The Butterfield House was built as a cooperative in 1962 by Architects Mayer, Whittlesey and Glass and is one of the most renowned and recognizable landmark buildings in the Greenwich Village Gold Coast. Residents enjoy an architecturally significant garden and lobby, a full-time doorman, state-of-the-art fitness facility, bike room, garage, storage, and a central laundry room. 2% flip tax payable by the purchaser. 60% financing permitted.

Greenwich Village | Manhattan

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.
