Description

A luxurious and bright 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom awaits at 37 West 12th Street, the iconic Butterfield House, in the coveted Greenwich Village. This remarkable residence exudes historical charm and sophistication, meticulously redesigned with impeccable attention to detail. Enter into a welcoming foyer adorned with architectural panels that delineate the living spaces. The expansive living room, accommodating living, dining, and relaxed entertaining, also offers a spacious dining area suitable for use as a media room, office, or potential third bedroom.

Large bay windows allow natural light to stream throughout and feature custom window seats, providing a cozy vantage point to appreciate the Greenwich Village surroundings. The open kitchen is a culinary haven with custom cabinetry, matching paneled appliances, and a top-of-the-line package including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bertazoni range and hood, and Miele dishwasher. Elegant white Caesarstone marble countertops and a subway tile backsplash complete this ideal kitchen, complemented by an additional custom pantry with extra storage and a designated bar area. The residence's two large bedrooms occupy a separate wing, with the master suite featuring a fully renovated en-suite bath, two custom walk-in closets, and an additional closet with deep shelving. North-facing windows provide a serene streetscape setting, complete with built-in window seats and ample space for a home office.

The primary bath boasts imported tile, a spacious rain shower, and high-end fixtures. The award-winning Butterfield House was designed by renowned architects Mayer, Whittlesey, and Glass, standing as one of Greenwich Village’s most distinguished landmarks. Residents enjoy access to architecturally significant scenery in shared spaces like the garden and lobby, a full-time doorman, a state-of-the-art fitness facility, a bike room, a garage, storage facilities, and a central laundry room. The location is unbeatable, positioned in the heart of Lower Fifth Avenue and the Gold Coast of Greenwich Village, with convenient proximity to transportation, the Union Square Farmers Market, Whole Foods, and Citarella.

Add to that the ultimate amenity, onsite parking! Please note that a 2% flip tax is payable by the purchaser. This is your opportunity to own a piece of history in the heart of Greenwich Village’s prestigious Gold Coast.
