This elegantly designed and newly renovated, two-bedroom residence pays tribute to the distinguished building and historic Greenwich Village location. Beamed ceilings, a wood burning fireplace, and oversized windows are just a few highlights of this extraordinary renovated home. While maintaining the rich aesthetic of its earlier time, modern enhancements such as Nest controlled central A/C, by Daniel Frisch have culminated a truly exquisite space.

The formal foyer leads to a gracious and bright living room with a wall of windows offering views of the magnificent church next door. Gorgeous rift and quarter sawn white oak herringbone floors grace the residence. The windowed Chef’s kitchen is sleekly designed with Carrara marble countertops, classic subway tile backsplash, ample custom cabinetry, and premium finishes, including a Liebherr refrigerator and U-Line wine cooler, Bosch dishwasher, and Bertazzoni range. The apartment is also outfitted with a washer/dryer.

Adjacent to the living room is a large second bedroom with an en-suite bathroom featuring Carrara marble floor tiles, subway wall tiles, and Waterworks fixtures. The master suite includes a walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom, outfitted in Carrara marble tiles, Waterworks fixtures, and radiant heated floors. The apartment has been cleverly lined with well disguised storage throughout including a built in shoe storage for 60 shoes and also transfers with a large deeded storage unit.

40 Fifth Avenue is one of the finest pre-war cooperatives on lower Fifth Avenue’s Gold Coast. The stately 1929 Neo-Georgian building is situated within the Greenwich Village Historic District amongst tree-lined streets and townhomes.

Residents enjoy full-time doorman service and elevator operators, a live-in superintendent, additional laundry in the building, storage and a garden. The co-op features low maintenance and permits pets and 50 percent financing.

Located on the coveted stretch of lower Fifth Avenue’s Gold Coast, this stunning historic architecture lends a serene residential atmosphere with the shops, dining and services of Union Square within easy reach. Michelin-star restaurants Blue Hill, Babbo and Gotham Bar & Grill dot the neighborhood, with Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s both just a couple blocks away.
