Residence 2 at 52 Morton Street represents a rare opportunity to own the full parlor level of a historic Anglo-Italianate style townhome on a covetable West Village block. Having undergone a complete renovation in collaboration with a world-renowned European architecture firm, the home is a remarkable juxtaposition of lovely historical detail and brand new, state-of-the-art upgrades. Centered around a stunning wood-burning fireplace refinished in limestone by Chesneys New York, an open living and dining space greets you. Here, ceiling heights reach nearly 12' and the floors, laid in a thick-cut chevron pattern and hand-crafted by Axel Vervoodt's preferred millworker, harmonize with the warm palette in the space and are immediately striking to the eye. Two sets of original french doors have been faithfully restored and open to charming Juliette balconies replete with intricate cast-iron detail, all overlooking a quiet, tree-lined Morton Street. Just off the living area, the kitchen, meticulous in its curation, houses strictly top-end appliances including a Lacanche range, Gaggenau refrigerator and Miele dishwasher. Completely outfitted with custom milled cabinetry and topped with stunning marble countertops, the approach here is pragmatic, functional, and exceptionally well crafted. At the opposite end of the home, the primary bedroom is a tranquil retreat. Facing south over private gardens, incredible natural light showcases the painstaking attention to architectural detail evidenced throughout the home. A second wood-burning fireplace and a plethora of deep custom closets frame the western wall. The washroom, too, is luxurious and spa-like. Offering distinct areas for the water closet - complete with appliances by Devon and Devon - a steam shower by Steamist and a spacious walk-in shower, the space is finished in floor-to-ceiling marble and complemented by custom matte black fixtures by VOLA. Other notable amenities include central heating and air, in-unit Miele laundry facilities, bespoke shades by Jacques Grange, and a custom Lutron lighting system with lighting by Viabizzuno and fixtures and switches by Meljac. The result is a rare offering: elegant and timelessly minimalistic, all in one of the most coveted locations downtown.
