54 W 11th St, New York, NY 10011

A wonderful opportunity presents itself to own a stately 4-story townhouse on one of the best blocks in New York’s Greenwich Village. Located on tree-lined 11th Street between 5th & 6th Avenues, this sun-flooded home showcases original detail and boasts a beautiful south garden. This location is unrivaled, as West 11th Street between 5th and 6th Avenues is one of the few Greenwich Village blocks to have retained its history and protected a contiguous line of 21 houses, avoiding high-rise development. Built in 1841 by Andrew Lockwood, Erastus Freeman and James Harriot this house is in the Greek Revival architectural style popular at that time. The house measures 22’ x 45’ on a lot that extends back to 94.75 +- feet and offers 4,168 square feet +/- not including the basement.
