Property Description for 156 Waverly Place

Located on one of the most unique and charming blocks in the heart of Greenwich Village is 156 Waverly Place.

This 22'-wide, five-story townhouse was built in 1839 along with seven other Greek Revival townhouses, making up the recognizable and picturesque row of homes we see today. The beautiful townhouse, delivered vacant, boasts 6,072 square feet internally, ample original details including NINE original fireplaces, and grand ceiling heights throughout. Externally, the home features multiple outdoor spaces including a grand south-facing garden, with access from both the parlor and garden level, another patio located on the garden level, and a terrace on the fourth level with views of the Freedom Tower, equating to around 1,000 square feet of existing outdoor space, with the potential to add much more with the addition of a roof deck. The home, situated on a sought-after 97' lot, is sun-filled, while its full cellar offers the ability to create even more usable space, such as a grand wine cellar.

156 Waverly Place offers the ability to create a magnificent single-family mansion on an incredibly charming Greenwich Village block. This townhouse is truly a rare and unique opportunity and will not last.

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.
