An elegant marble-floored entry vestibule sets the tone, framed by a well-proportioned coat closet and space for a credenza, an entryway bench, or an additional closet. At the heart of the home, the generous living room is bathed in light from three windows and anchored by custom millwork with a built-in entertainment center. The living area flows seamlessly into the adjacent dining alcove, which comfortably seats eight and features a built-in banquette with custom storage below. The windowed chef's kitchen is appointed with statuary marble countertops and backsplash, custom gloss cabinetry with soft-close drawers, and a full suite of premium Miele appliances, including a built-in coffee and espresso system.
Set apart from the living area, the serene primary suite offers a true retreat. The oversized corner bedroom easily accommodates a separate sitting area and opens directly onto a south-facing private terrace. Equipped with irrigation and electricity, the terrace extends the home's stylish living outdoors and easily accommodates an outdoor living and dining set. The suite also includes a generous walk-in closet and a spa-like, marble-clad bath with Fantini fixtures. Completing the wing is a home office with an additional generously sized storage closet; it can be closed off from the living areas by a pocket door and easily reconfigured as a dressing room or den. Every closet has been outfitted by California Closets.

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.
