246 W 12th Street

Built in 1852, with its original stoop and ironwork intact, a beautiful Greek Revival style townhouse is now on the market. A prime West Village location on a cobble stone street, this special home features a 30-foot south-facing garden surrounded by other townhouse gardens, a true oasis of quiet and greenery. The spacious home has six bedrooms, three full baths, and a half bath. The garden level, with a separate street entrance, includes a bedroom, full bath, kitchen, and patio leading to the garden. The double parlor has pocket doors and floor-to-ceiling grand parlor windows that are true to the architectural era and overlook scenic West 12th Street. There is an eat-in kitchen with a door to the garden and large windows with lovely views. The third floor has two bedrooms, a full bath, and two home offices that could be used to expand the adjacent bedrooms or as very large windowed walk-in closets. One of the bedrooms opens to a large terrace, an ideal place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. The top floor has four bedrooms, a full bath, and a windowed laundry room. Original details include two wood burning fireplaces, exposed brick, hardwood floors, and a staircase with beautiful molding and coffin corner. High ceilings and nice light, including three skylights, are throughout this home. Owned by the same family for six decades, this is an incredible opportunity to customize the townhouse of your dreams.
