Property Details
Description
This impeccable one-bedroom, one-bathroom penthouse duplex wows with beautiful interiors filled with original architectural details, 10’4” ceiling height on both floors, outstanding storage, and an ultra-desirable location on what is arguably one of the best blocks in the heart of the coveted West Village. Arrive on the lower entertaining level and be swept away by soaring exposed beam ceilings, hardwood floors, and swaths of painted brick. The south-facing living room invites you to relax alongside open-sky views and a wood-burning fireplace. At 30 feet long, the space offers a generous footprint for seating and dining areas. In the eat-in kitchen, custom cabinetry is topped with stainless steel and butcher block countertops and dramatic green subway tile along with appliances that include a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Marvel wine refrigerator, and a vented gas range and dishwasher by Bosch. Head upstairs to discover a full-floor owner’s suite featuring custom shelving, walls of floor-to-ceiling wardrobe closets, and a laundry closet with a washer and vented dryer. Pocket doors reveal the serene south-facing bedroom with Freedom Tower views, while the bathroom gets natural light all day long through a large skylight. This home comes with the use of the roof area directly above the apartment. Built in 1910, 281 West 11th Street holds a proud position within the Greenwich Village Historic District. Amble down the charming block lined with trees and brownstones, and discover the city’s best shopping and dining right outside your door. Neighboring Bleecker Street offers dozens of upscale boutiques, with foodie favorites and nightlife destinations like Sant Ambroeus, the White Horse Tavern, Magnolia Bakery, Dante, The Butcher’s Daughter, Via Carota and Buvette minutes away. Abingdon Square and Bleecker Playground are across the street, while Hudson River Park, The High Line, Whitney Museum, and Meatpacking District are all nearby. Transportation is effortless with 1/2/3, B/D/F/M, A/C/E, L subway lines, PATH trains, excellent bus service and CitiBikes within easy reach.
