Description

At the crossroads of elegance and history stands 2 Horatio Street, one of the West Village’s most beloved prewar cooperatives, designed by the esteemed architect Emory Roth and developed by Bing & Bing, masters of New York’s 1930s architectural renaissance. This full-service building is celebrated not only for its classic proportions, gracious layouts, and prime location overlooking Jackson Square Park, but also for its rich cultural legacy — having long attracted notable residents from the worlds of television, film, and the arts. Within this storied address, Apartment 2D offers a serene and sophisticated retreat that embodies the building’s timeless charm. Original prewar details create a warm and inviting home that balances tradition with modern comforts. Unusually low monthly maintenance – that includes electricity! – enhances the apartment’s appeal, offering exceptional value in one of Manhattan’s most coveted neighborhoods. Enter through a gracious arched foyer with a large coat closet, leading into a serene and inviting living room distinguished by its original beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, and classic prewar proportions. The generous layout easily accommodates a full seating area, while the adjacent dining alcove offers flexibility as a home office or intimate dining space. The windowed kitchen, conveniently situated off the living room, features a practical and efficient layout suited for everyday living. The king-sized bedroom serves as a quiet space, continuing the home’s elegant design with original beamed ceilings and hardwood floors. Two oversized closets provide excellent storage, and the en-suite, windowed bathroom remains in pristine vintage condition, beautifully preserving its timeless charm. A private storage unit is also available separately, adding to the home’s overall convenience and functionality. Built in 1931, this Bing & Bing co-op permits pied-à-terre use, co-purchasing, guarantors, subletting, and pets. Amenities include a full-time doorman, live-in resident manager, on-site handymen, porters, bicycle storage, and a common laundry room. Located directly across from Jackson Square Park and mere minutes from favorite neighborhood restaurants including San Sabino, Don Angie, and Café Cluny. Equinox is close by and the bike and running paths of the Hudson River Park are a few blocks west. The Whitney Museum, Well-known Art Galleries and Boutiques abound – both in the neighborhood and the adjacent Meatpacking District. Nearby transit options include a Citi Bike station and the A, C, E, 1, 2, 3 and L subway lines. 2 Horatio Street remains a quintessential expression of West Village living — where architectural pedigree, creative heritage, and understated luxury converge in perfect harmony.
