The West Village is full of history, charm, and plenty of action. There’s never a dull moment here, and the ever-trendy neighborhood is home to everything from cozy cafes and boutique stores to gastropubs and upscale dining. The real estate options vary as much as the neighborhood’s vibe, hosting a mix of prewar co-ops, historic townhouses, and modern lofts. This week is all about welcoming West Village homes asking under $1 million.
If you want a home that embodies the feel of a historic museum, look no further. This 1-bedroom is otherworldly and feels like a walk through history, featuring glazed copper ceiling tiles, multiple hand-painted murals, and lots of stained glass windows. Its old-world charm doesn’t end there: a decorative marble fireplace anchors the living room, along with a built-in banquette. The kitchen harks back to the Shakespearean era, while the bedroom showcases more custom murals. Living here is a truly one-of-a-kind experience for those who love the quirkiest of homes.
Tranquility awaits you in this 925-square-foot abode that offers one bedroom, a home office, and a lushly planted private patio. The open-concept layout allows for seamless flow from one area to another, with contemporary finishes throughout. Ceilings soar nine feet high, polished wood floors run throughout, and there’s an in-unit washer/dryer on hand for convenience. The kitchen is appointed with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. A Murphy bed is concealed in the living room, making it easy to host guests, and there are five closets including a large walk-in.
Also located on Barrow Street, the dramatic arches and high ceilings in this home are a nod to the building’s history as a 19th-century printing factory. The apartment is cute and cozy with French doors, oversized windows, and lots of sunlight. The kitchen is small but fully equipped, and the full bathroom includes a tub and vanity. The building operates as a condop and has perks that include laundry rooms on every floor, a doorman, and storage units.
Come for the curb appeal and stay for the charm of this top-floor studio. Nicknamed “The Tree House,” this two-level home includes exposed brick walls, 12-foot angled beamed ceilings, and wide-plank oak floors. The windowed bathroom is newly renovated, and there’s an in-unit washer/dryer to make laundry day a cinch. Two skylights and a large storage area are among the other highlights.
There’s a sense of airiness in place at this spacious studio. The living room’s layout is large, has huge windows, and is expansive enough to carve out a sleeping alcove that can accommodate a king bed. If you’d rather have a full bedroom, the floor plan offers flexibility to create one. The corner kitchen is outfitted with black lacquer cabinets and glass tile backsplash. A large closet is located in the foyer, and there are two smaller closets near the living room.
