Description

Stunning Greenwich Village Gold Coast duplex overlooking Washington Square Park. This exceptional property is unlike any other, boasting a massive, lushly-planted roof terrace with breathtaking views of the park and cityscape. It’s a wonderful home for both living and entertaining. A charming cottage-style structure on the terrace houses a large room with 10’5" ceilings.

South-facing french doors, topped by a row of transom windows, admit bountiful sunlight. Currently used as an office, this marvelous aerie would make an equally special den or bedroom. The rest of the interior is equally impressive, with a spacious living room and a primary bedroom that both face directly onto the iconic park. A terrace off the living room, also overlooking the park, offers even more space for outdoor enjoyment.

There is a separate dining room, another bedroom, a washer/dryer, and excellent closet and storage space. The property features charming Greenwich Village views from nearly every room, and three exposures that bathe the home in natural light. 2 5th Ave. is a full-service, white glove, pet-friendly co-operative designed by Emery Roth and Sons and built in 1952.

While 2 5th is recognized for its two white brick towers, the apartment is located on the top floor of the five story red brick wing of the building on Washington Square North. Residents of 2 5th enjoy the rare luxury of a private driveway. The building offers a host of other amenities, including 24-hour doormen, a fitness center, package room, storage, bike storage, residents’ lounge, children’s playroom, garage, on-site valet, library, on-site management, and a live-in building manager. Pied-a-terres, co-purchasing, and gifting are allowed with board approval.

2% Flip Tax paid by purchaser. This prime location is close to many subway and bus lines, CitiBike stations, schools, parks, shops, restaurants, and all the best that downtown has to offer. 2 Fifth is currently zoned for PS 41. Don’t miss your chance to experience luxurious city living at its finest. Showings by appointment only.
