40 West 13th Street, 2-FLR

A large, private floor 3-4 bedroom CONDO loft with grand proportions and low monthlies, steeped in history and perfectly positioned in the heart of the 'Gold Coast' of Greenwich Village, moments from Union Square, numerous restaurants, cultural institutions, retail, the Meatpacking District, Flatiron District, East Village, West Village and all transportation options. This superb home with multiple recent system upgrades measures about 2,860 square feet in size, and represents a unique and authentic New York experience in the most conveniently accessible location. Enter through the carved stone gothic facade entrance via the discrete lobby of this pre-war building, once home to Rambusch Design Studios between 1898 and 1999: the large elevator whisks you up to the 2nd floor, revealing a grandly scaled living space with exposed wood columns and light streaming in from large western-facing windows overlooking a tranquil courtyard garden. The large windowed kitchen features stainless steel Viking and Sub-Zero appliances. A spectacular walk-in wine cellar acts as a backdrop to the dining area. Three bedrooms are in the southern wing of the apartment and feature ample closet space and scale. The primary bedroom suite has the kind of proportions impossible to find in newer buildings. A study - or 4th bedroom - is at the opposite, northern side of the floor, facing 13th Street, features extensive custom-milled bookshelves and cabinetry. Almost 100 feet in length, the entire apartment is surrounded by windows on all four sides. This apartment has it all with extensive recessed lighting, gleaming hardwood floors (easily stained a multitude of colors/shades), soaring ceilings, ducted central air-conditioning, a laundry room, and excellent closet/storage space! The building boasts a digital entry system and has been beautifully maintained. This home represents an excellent value in what has become the most desirable prime location of Downtown Manhattan.
