Description

215 E 12th Street was built in the 1840's as sweeping single family home with physicians' offices below and beautiful front and rear gardens. It is now priced at only $7,100.000. Its enormous scale is incomparable. At 25 feet wide, and over 5000SF on four floors this enviable downtown property provides space for the ultimate live/work residence and/or Medical Spa with a large family home above. The historic home's entrance is now located on the first floor and leads to the repurposed doctors office which is a one-bedroom apartment, a separate artist studio, and a guest suite with its own bath. There is a grand stairway which leads to the oversized residence above. The magical sun filled garden boasts ivy-covered brick walls, mature trees, and a basketball court! The parlor floor is one of Greenwich Village's most significant. It has soaring ceilings which are over 13 feet tall and all original details in-tact!!!! The gracious living and dining rooms boast two working wood-burning fireplaces and glamorous oversized French doors overlooking the tree lined street and stunning gardens. The kitchen is very much of the moment with it's top-of-the-line appliances and a sleek Swedish aesthetic. The rear garden is also accessible from this level by way of an Iron Stairway. The Master floor consists of a sitting area, dressing room, a master bath, and two additional bedrooms and oversized children's bathroom. On the top floor are four more bedrooms, a renovated bath and new laundry facilities to accommodate your brood – all with high ceilings... which is an unusual privilege on a top floor. There is a well preserved skylight with the original Victorian detailing which sends sunlight down through the house and enhances the sense of wellbeing and calm which pervades the home. The one time doctors offices feel absolutely perfect for a Medical Spa. And the new price of $7,100,000 is the best urban cure.
