32 Washington Square W #8E

It is only occasionally that a meticulously renovated apartment overlooking Washington Square Park comes to market. No expense was spared, nor any detail overlooked in re-imagining this thoughtful and elegant apartment. Published in Architectural Digest, the apartment is set up as a glamorous two bedroom plus corner library (or third bedroom) with a stunning formal dining room and living room with wood burning fireplace, with lush views over the treetops of the park. The eighth floor has arguably one of the best views in this full-service pre-war coop, with an ideal mixture of verdant trees, ample sky, and historic Greenwich Village architecture. A semi-private elevator landing leads to an entry foyer which leads to an open layout, ideally suited to modern living and entertaining. A massive and beautifully designed gourmet kitchen has top quality custom millwork, Statuarietto Italian marble counters on the huge island, a custom-paneled Subzero refrigerator and freezer, a Wolf stove and microwave, a Miele dishwasher and a U-line wine fridge. The new, stunning herringbone floors in all the public spaces are limed European white oak. The living room features a wood burning fireplace with a custom stone surround, custom built-ins with clever storage wherever possible, and incredible lush views over Washington Square Park. The adjacent formal dining room has similarly impressive views, custom bookshelves and storage, and ample seating for gracious entertaining. There is a new and beautifully renovated windowed full bath and a large laundry/mechanical/utility room with plenty of storage off the dining room. The stunning corner library has two impressive exposures east and south over the park and Greenwich Village and features custom built-ins and rift-sawn white oak desk. The two large and private bedrooms feature sun-flooded southern exposures over Washington Place, ample closet space, and beautifully renovated, elegant private baths, the primary bath with heated floors. The systems in the apartment are all state of the art, with audio, visual and ethernet wired throughout with seven on-wall control panels arranged for easy access. A central air conditioning system with two independently controllable zones cools the entire apartment. Built in 1925, 32 Washington Square West is amongst the finest cooperatives downtown. This full-service building has a 24-hour doorman, live-in super, and a gym. Pets and 50% financing are permitted, and a storage locker conveys with the apartment. 2% flip tax paid by purchaser.
