Property Description for 42 West 9th Street, 23
Sitting atop The Portsmouth is Apartment 23, a rambling, elegant two-bedroom, two-bathroom PENTHOUSE with a large, windowed office that could be a third bedroom. Its triple exposures feature quintessential New York City views, incredible closet space, and 10-foot ceilings.
Overlooking picturesque W. 9th Street and beyond, the three north-facing windows in the living room offer a green and serene panorama. The wood-burning fireplace is adorned within an intricate mantle and flanked by built-in bookshelves.
Flowing into the living room through wooden pocket doors, the windowed chef's kitchen features a Sub-Zero refrigerator, gas Wolf range, and Miele dishwasher.
As you stroll to the Southern wing of the residence, you are greeted with an oversized laundry room with ample storage space and a washer and dryer that vents to the outside.
Perfectly separated from the living space are the sleeping quarters. The primary suite features a decorative fireplace with an elaborate mantle positioned between two windows filled with afternoon sun. The office - or third bedroom - has sprawling downtown views through French-door windows.
The Portsmouth was constructed by Ralph Townsend in the 1800s. It is a rare, boutique pre-war coop on the coveted Gold Coast in the Village. Consisting of three buildings, a full-time doorman and a full-time superintendent, The Portsmouth is a Village dream. The building welcomes pets and allows co-purchasers and pieds-à-terre.

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.
