Co-op, 720 GREENWICH Street #1A, West Village - Real Estate New York

Description

STOP! If you love cookie-cutter, do not read on. If you appreciate unusual shapes and uniquely designed spaces, this West Village loft is for you. #1A at 720 Greenwich Street boasts nearly 13-foot, barrel vaulted ceilings and nine 10-foot tall south and east windows. Currently configured as a 2 bed, 2 bath loft with a separate lofted sleeping area and dining alcove, it can convert to a true three bedroom.

The open and airy floor plan has grand proportions, amazing light, and a sleek, industrial feel, utilizing opaque glass and steel, warm wood and recycled elements like an actual ballet bar, Paperstone kitchen countertops and the same wide plank wood floors that grace the Whitney Museum. The trapezoidal shape of the loft allows for winged bedrooms and a kitchen area that feels separate.

The U-shaped, custom kitchen with storage to the ceiling and a Bosch appliance package, including an induction cooktop, speed oven and Miele warming drawer, has a clever breakfast bar that can fold away. Beside the kitchen is a dining alcove currently used as a seating moment with a custom hideaway wet bar and additional storage.

The breathtaking, trapezoidal living room has south-facing windows soaring nearly to the ceiling with extremely bright and striking street views to the open corner of Charles and Greenwich. The contemporary fireplace and wood cabinetry is a focal point of the room. The unusual shape of this delightful room creates natural areas for both living and dining for at least eight.

The en suite primary bedroom faces east with a wall of built-in closets and cabinets, removing the need for additional furniture. The en suite bath boasts Toto and Duravit fixtures, stainless steel and glass lined walls. The separate sink area has a built-in, mirrored vanity with seating and storage.

The second bedroom also has custom built-ins and inset shelving. Up a set of samba steps is a clever lofted sleeping area with built-in desks and shelving. A folding wall can open this area to the living room. Massive storage lives beneath.

The coop has a stellar live-in super, laundry on every floor (Please note: W/D are not allowed in the units), and an amazing staff including a doorperson 8a-12a daily. There is a fantastic roof deck with breathtaking city and river views (for a fee) and two brand new passenger elevators. The lobby and first floor hallway are poised for a facelift.

Pets are welcome and pieds a terre and co-purchasing considered. Listing courtesy of Corcoran Group ...
