148 Bank Street #4-B

You've found it: A XXL-sized two bedroom apartment in West Village for under $ 1M. In well-kept original condition, this floor-through apartment faces South & North and is located on prestigious Bank Street with flexible layout, abundant closets, North + South exposure, and extra-large bedrooms. Move in as-is or bring your Architect and open up the kitchen to the sunny living/dining areas, add a washer/dryer, and finish it to your taste. Conversion to a 3-bed, 2-bath is also possible. Would be happy to discuss details intimately. Professionally managed 12-unit building with only 2 apartments per floor part of a financially sound free-market co-op with impressive land assets, low maintenance, ground-level bike storage & laundry room, FIOS (high speed fiber optic internet), onsite management, live-in supers, building & grounds staff, and keyed outdoor green spaces. Subletting permitted after 2 years (3 of 6 permitted), co-purchasing, gifting, financing (with 25% down) and renovations are all permitted with Board approval. Walkup building and best possible scenario at that: wide & well-lit stairs, short runs, and sturdy steel construction that are a huge improvement over those typically found in West Village. Built in 1974, 148 Bank is set on a sunny, quiet street up the hill from the Hudson River Park and in the heart of West Village historic district famous for tree-lined cobblestoned streets and a short walk to the area's best storefronts and restaurants. It's a 10-minute walk to the ACE or 1/2/3 trains @ 14th, or a 4-minute CitiBike ride, near which there are many. PS 3, PS 41, Bleecker St Childrens' Playground, and Village Community School are close by. The community was envisioned by urbanist Jane Jacobs who battled against Robert Moses' efforts to run a highway through the village. Instead, she planned housing with big floor plates in simple buildings with huge garden spaces... and here we are today with those apartments market rate and never more appealing. Living, dining room, and bedroom images are virtually staged and dimensionally accurate. Shown by private appointment ONLY.
