Property Details
Description
Located on one of the most sought-after streets in Greenwich Village where John Lennon, Yoko Ono, and Lauren Bacall once lived, this 20' wide exquisitely restored and thoroughly modernized house was recently the home of baseball legends Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter. Built in 1833 for the Reverend Joseph Carter in classic early Greek - Revival style, the four story house totals roughly 2,800 SF and is artfully composed of Flemish bond brick over a brownstone base. The sophisticated layout is ideally suited for entertaining and privacy, affording a full-floor living room and state of the art kitchen / dining room with half bath. Also included is a deluxe master suite with spa bathroom, and a separate bedroom / guest suite with private street entrance, bath, and kitchenette. All floors are connected by a dramatic steel staircase with marble treads from South America and solid cherry handrail, brilliantly illuminated by a four story wall of one-way privacy glass. The stair also leads to a private landscaped patio at grade, and an expansive roof that has been prepared for a sun deck and awaits your own landscaping vision. There is an immaculate basement/crawl space with ample room for storage and mechanicals, including a separate dedicated water tank and pressure pump for the infinity tub and Duravit rain shower in the master bath. Other details include central air conditioning throughout, four gas-burning fireplaces with dramatic black slate fire boxes, brushed granite kitchen counter tops and Blanco sink, heated bathroom floors, washer dryer, custom recessed lighting, and state of the art stereo sound system throughout with remote controls.
