Property Description for 37 West 12th Street, 7-D

A rare offering, this renovated “D” line residence showcases a meticulous, high-end architectural redesign with unparalleled craftsmanship throughout. The reimagined layout blends modern luxury with timeless elegance. A gracious foyer with custom floor-to-ceiling closets leads to a spacious, light-filled living and dining area. Floor-to-ceiling south-facing windows open to a private terrace overlooking the building’s tranquil landmarked gardens and protected Greenwich Village views. The windowed chef’s kitchen features a marble waterfall island, top-of-the-line appliances—Sub-Zero, Viking, Wolf, and Miele—and extensive custom cabinetry with integrated tech and storage. The private bedroom wing includes two generously sized rooms with southern exposures. The primary suite offers a custom walk-in closet and spa-like marble bath with a walk-in rain shower. The second bedroom, currently configured as a home office and media room, easily doubles as a guest space. A second marble-clad bath includes a deep soaking tub and ample storage. Additional upgrades include solid oak floors, new windows, central A/C, custom electronic blinds, recessed lighting, abundant custom closets, and a Crestron-style AV system with in-wall controls in every room. The Butterfield House, a landmarked mid-century gem by Mayer, Whittlesey & Glass, offers white glove service, full-time doorman, resident manager, landscaped garden, fitness center, garage, bike room, storage, and more. Ideally located on lower Fifth Avenue in the Gold Coast of Greenwich Village, near top dining, shopping, and transit options. 2% seller paid flip tax, current assessment in place $320/monthly. Pied-a-terres allowed, and pet friendly. Subletting, co-purchasing, and parents buying for children not allowed.

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.
