Petite Grandeur This enchanting estate-condition single-family townhouse is located on an idyllic block in the West Village. Built in 1821 and in the landmarked Greenwich Village Historic District, this home is a historic canvas and being offered for the first time in 43 years. Bring your architect and create the home of your dreams with approximately 1160 SF above-grade and 2100SF of unused FAR available. The home has southeastern and northwestern exposures, is nearly 17 feet wide and has multiple outdoor spaces including a 20-foot deep garden. As you ascend the stoop and enter the first floor you're greeted by a stained glass vestibule and original hardwood wide plank floors. There is a unique arched brick mantle over a once-woodburning fireplace (you will find two more antique woodburning fireplaces at the cellar and second floor). There is a powder room for guests and access to the garden featuring what may have been an original street lamp, romantic ivy-covered wall, and a lively gingko tree. On the second floor is the master bedroom with ensuite windowed bath, a walk-in closet and additional storage located subtlety behind wooden paneled walls. From the master bath stained rondel glass windows open over the private garden. On the bright third floor there are vaulted ceilings with a skylight, an exposed brick chimney, an additional full bathroom with a tub, a classic murphy bed, and a hidden closet. From this level stairs lead to the roof deck. The cellar houses the kitchen featuring a vintage 1950's built-in wall oven and has a separate entrance leading to the street as well as original garden access that may be able to be restored. The water heater (nearly five years old) and washer/dryer are located on this level. This house was recently inspected and while in need of renovation good bills of health were given to the pointing and roof. This home offers the autonomy and outdoor space of a townhouse with the simple upkeep that comes with a modest footprint. Enjoy all the best the neighborhood has to offer including a cornucopia of culinary delights and restaurants such as Sushi Nakazawa located directly across the street, Buvette, Del Posto, Blue Hill, L'Artusi, Boucherie and John's Pizza. Centrally located, you're within a short distance to multiple subway lines including the 1/A//C/E/B/D/F/M.
