10 E 10th Street #Garden Duplex

This grand three-bedroom, three-bathroom duplex is a rare gem in the heart of Greenwich Village in a classic townhome on one of Manhattan's most idyllic blocks between Fifth Avenue and University Place. This is an updated residence that also boasts its original breathtaking 19th century details. Upon entering the ground floor of the townhouse, a hallway leads to the main entrance of this home and a large foyer. Stairs to the right lead up to the parlor floor, complete with living room, dining room, kitchen, bedroom with en-suite bathroom, and sitting area. The 13-foot ceilings throughout the parlor floor emphasize the enchanting views. The sitting area, living and dining room are open but distinctly separated with plenty of room for entertaining. They combine to create the epitome of glamorous New York living while also a lending a sense of a serenity. Both the living and dining rooms have large, handsome, decorative, black marble fireplaces. The floors have been refinished but maintain their original inlaid artistry. In the front where the dining room is located, are oversized windows overlooking a tree-lined street and an 1879 Lockwood DeForest building. The adjacent kitchen skillfully blends contemporary stainless steel and chrome with custom-designed Mid-Century Modern cabinetry that reaches the ceiling, offering a remarkable amount of storage for any Manhattan home. This unique kitchen is highlighted by 5-foot tall windows. To the back of the parlor, floor-to-ceiling glass panels and patio doors immediately draw attention to the stunning terrace with stairs that lead down to a private garden and fountain. The stone tile garden is thoughtfully filled with beautiful greenery that make this a quintessentially New York backyard retreat. It is also grill ready. Back on the ground floor is the primary bedroom with a private garden entrance, ensuite bathroom, home office, dressing room/walk-in closet and hallway with shelving and additional closets. Across the foyer with the 3rd bathroom and dedicated washer/dryer closet, is another bedroom/studio with its own kitchenette. This could easily be converted into a private office space to greet clients because of the separate entrance away from living quarters. The beautiful flooring throughout has been masterfully renovated by Norwegian Wood. An application requiring financial, income and credit information as well as references is required for landlord approval, but with a quicker approval process than buildings. This is for tenants who want something private, quiet, and uniquely downtown Manhattan. Call to arrange for a special viewing.
