Description

Expansive home with rare architectural details in late-1800s former horse stable. Situated on a quintessential tree-lined West Village block, this 1500 sq/ft +/- home with a flexible layout checks off all the boxes: unique 6'+/- circular south-facing windows; high beamed ceilings; exposed brick walls; wood burning fireplace; in-unit w/d; private and intimate coop listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This sunny south-facing home is ideal for grand entertaining or luxurious family living. The entry foyer opens into an expansive living/dining area with wow-factor. The large chef's kitchen features high-end appliances, custom cabinetry, ample storage, and a 40" Sub-Zero fridge. Dine with the whole family and all of your friends in the oversized dining area. Enjoy a wood-burning fire in your step-up living room overlooking serene, tree-lined Downing Street. Rest peacefully in one of your 2 split-bedrooms. And create your own special space in your multi-purpose room - a 3rd/guest room, quiet study, or theatre room. This private and historic building has extremely low maintenance, and dedicated basement storage space for each home. The pet-friendly building is located just moments from a vast selection of first-rate restaurants, shops, and services, and is conveniently located near numerous subway lines.
