Overview of Mead House at 72 Perry Street

Mead House is a five story pre-war co-op at 72 Perry Street, a brownstone on a tree lined block in the West Village. Built in 1910 and converted in 1986, the walk up contains 10 apartments. Its most distinctive layout is a ground floor residence with a private garden, while other apartments have terraces or garden outlooks.

The apartments retain pre-war details including high ceilings, hardwood floors, crown moldings, and wood burning fireplaces, alongside updated kitchens and bathrooms. Open layouts, built in storage, customized closets, central air conditioning, and laundry, including in-unit machines in at least one residence, recur among the homes. Basement storage is also available.

The building takes its name from Margaret Mead, the noted anthropologist and former owner. A part time superintendent handles custodial work and garbage, and the building has an intercom. Pets are not permitted.

Perry Street places Mead House amid the West Village’s galleries, cafes, restaurants, and small shops, with Hudson River Park a short distance west. The address combines the scale and architectural character of a compact historic townhouse building with a range of apartment layouts, including homes with private outdoor space.

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.

By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
