712 Washington Street #2-A

SUCCESS! West Village Houses successfully voted to become a full market-rate co-op on October 23!

An opportunity for the right home-buyer, 712 Washington Street, 2A is a generously proportioned true 2-bedroom corner unit on the 2nd floor of a rock-solid, well-maintained cooperative building in the most enchanted part of the West Village. Situated mid-block on quiet Washington Street between Perry and West 11th Streets in the shade of mature sycamore trees and with maintenance of only $ 811/month, this home is steps away from Perry Street Restaurant, Wallse, Aria, and a short walk to Whitney Museum and the High Line entrance in the bustling Meatpacking District.

The wide living and dining room is perfect for entertaining! Facing east towards Washington Street with cobblestone streets, townhouses and quaint eateries in view, the living space is column-free and can easily accommodate several pieces of furniture, a projector screen, or built-ins.

Both of the king-sized bedrooms face lush gardens and the splendid architecture on display on West 11th Street, including the Julian Schnabel-designed Palazzo Chupi. The rooms are peaceful and quiet and each contain deep, double-wide closets. The interior spaces are served by wall-through a/c (not window units!) and baseboard heating.

With residents staying for years and decades on end, it the neighborhood enjoys a conviviality not felt anyplace else in Manhattan. Many residents have added mini-split A/C and heating systems, in-unit washer/dryers, and have opened the kitchen up to the living area (though some prefer the privacy). Your full-time neighbors in the immediate vicinity are families who have been in the neighborhood for years, A-list celebrities, titans of industry, interesting misfits, those wishing to live near wonderful local schools, and increasingly those seeking to live near Google's expanding NY footprint.
