Description

An expansive 2 bedroom and 2 bath residence at 37 West 12th Street, the legendary Butterfield House located on one of the most sought-after blocks in the heart of Gold Coast Greenwich Village. A gracious foyer meets you as you enter the home leading to an expansive living room measuring nearly 25 feet with floor-to-ceiling south-facing windows overlooking the beautiful and tranquil building gardens. A separate dining alcove provides an ideal space for dinner parties and quiet meals at home. The windowed galley kitchen sits conveniently adjacent to the dining and livings rooms and features an abundance of counter and storage space for the chef in the family and new stainless-steel appliances.

There are two large bedrooms in a separate wing of the home including the primary bedroom suite featuring an en suite bath and three closets, one of which is a massive walk-in. The south-facing windows provide a quiet townhouse-like setting and there is plenty of room for a home office. The generous second bedroom also boasts sunny garden views and two large closets.

The second full bath conveniently doubles as a powder room for guests. Additional features include original solid wood parquet flooring currently protected with wall-to-wall carpeting, brand new windows, centrally controlled heat and AC in each room, and a glorious enclosed sunroom that provides the perfect respite from city life. The Butterfield House was built as a cooperative in 1962 by Architects Mayer, Whittlesey and Glassis and is one of the most renowned and recognizable landmark buildings in the Greenwich Village Gold Coast. Residents enjoy an architecturally significant garden and lobby, a full-time doorman, state-of-the-art fitness facility, bike room, garage, storage, and a central laundry room.

2% flip tax payable by the purchaser.
