Airy, pre-war duplex loft in the heart of the West Village

 

This sophisticated West Village duplex features soaring 14+ foot barrel-vaulted ceilings and incredible natural light shining through a row of 10-foot tall windows looking East over Greenwich Street. Residence 1R is the quintessential downtown loft, balancing industrial pre-war elements with 21st century design to create a cohesive, contemporary home.

 

On the entry level, the open kitchen hosts a high-end stainless steel appliance package (Miele range, Bosch DW,  Electrolux fridge), ample workspace, a walk-in pantry, and additional bar seating. Just beyond, a grand-scale living space and separate dining area create the ideal atmospheres for entertaining or a cozy night at home. Dramatic, double-height brick walls anchor the living and dining areas offering the perfect opportunity to display an extensive art collection. Newly installed automatic blinds and a spacious full bath complete this floor.

 

The second floor is currently configured as an open floorplan, with a separate area for sleeping and a designated workspace looking out onto idyllic Greenwich Street. With over 7' ceilings on the upper level, conversion to a formal 1 BD would be a simple project for the next shareholder, should they choose.  This home has incredible storage space (three large closets and built in shelving) and well-kept hardwood floors throughout. Private, quiet, and expansive, Apartment 1R is a true sanctuary on one of the most desirable streets in the West Village.

 

720 Greenwich is a landmarked, former printing warehouse converted to a coop in the 1990s. Amenities include a full-time live-in Resident Manager/ Super, part-time doorperson (8 am-12am daily), laundry rooms on every floor, and the opportunity to join a private, members-only, roof garden.  Bike storage, storage lockers and garage on site for an additional fee (pending availability).  Generous board policies; pet friendly; pied-a-terre, guarantors, co-purchase, parents purchasing for/with children and gifting allowed.

 

The location (on the corner of Greenwich and Perry) is a stone's throw from some of the best bars, restaurants, galleries and nightlife in the city -- including L'Artsui, Red Farm, Cafe Kitsune, Dante's WV, Employees Only, and many more. Nearby transit is available on the 1/2/3, A/C/B/D/F/M and PATH; other options include numerous Citibike stations (including one right near the building) and quick access to the West Side Highway and Hudson River Park.
