Description
A rare opportunity to experience true townhouse living, offering the perfect blend of privacy, charm, and modern luxury; this meticulously renovated duplex occupies the first two floors of a historic townhouse and feels like a private home, complete with a lush, secluded garden-ideal for relaxing or entertaining in style. From the moment you enter, you're welcomed by grand living spaces complete with oversize windows, beamed ceilings, oak floors, and abundant natural light. The thoughtfully designed layout provides a seamless indoor-outdoor flow rarely found in city living. The chef's kitchen features marble countertops, custom cabinetry, and a top-tier stainless steel appliance package. Both bathrooms are outfitted with sleek stall showers and elegant finishes, and a dedicated wine cellar adds a sophisticated touch. A full size in-unit washer dryer with ample space for linens has been thoughtfully crafted with the ease of everyday living in mind. Every room is filled with warmth, light, and character. A secret overhead compartment adds to the mysterious delight of the space, with lots of room for additional storage. Tucked away in one of the most vibrant and desirable downtown locations-where the West Village meets Hudson Square-this residence offers unmatched access to boutiques, fine dining, galleries, and green spaces, all while maintaining a sense of privacy and calm. With its private entrance, townhouse feel, and garden sanctuary, this is not your typical apartment-it's a must-see for those seeking a truly special place to call home.
