Back on the Market! Large open apt in a deluxe but low-key pre-war, full-service Greenwich Village co-op located 2 blocks from Washington Square Park, NYU and SOHO. Ideally situated downtown but in a quiet location on a lovely block with rooftop patio access. This oversized studio with a spacious sleeping loft (of an additional 120 square ft) boasts 12 ft ceilings, a renovated kitchen with marble countertops, solid wood cabinets, brand new appliances and a stone ceramic floor. The renovated bathroom has wall-to-wall Jerusalem stone and a Jacuzzi. There’s a separate dressing area, an abundance of closet space including a large walk-in closet. The apartment has plenty of charm and character with original columns, beamed ceiling and hardwood floors. There is also a bit of history that goes along with this unit and the building. The apartment headquartered a critically-acclaimed lifestyle magazine. Countless photo shoots, proofreading parties and editorial meetings were held around its couch. The building was built in 1885-88 as a Neo Grec style dry goods store designed by John A. Wood. It was combined with 3 other buildings in 1979 and originally opened as a rental in 1979. So not only will you purchase a great apartment in a great building and great location but you will be purchasing a piece of history.
