West Village Townhouse


Situated in the Greenwich Village Landmarks Historic District, this mid-1800's Greek Revival townhouse was gut-renovated on the interior and carefully restored on the exterior. The front facade was redesigned and reconstructed to reflect the original 2 1/2 story facade and the early 19th century full-width dormer addition. The house was also converted from a 3-family building back to a single-family townhouse with a bonus 1-bedroom rental apartment at the basement level. The interior was organized around an oval stair hall that runs from the basement up to the newly added half-penthouse floor on the roof.
