About This Home
One of the only turnkey historic townhomes available in the West Village, this beautifully renovated 23-foot-wide, four-story showplace features four luxurious bedroom suites, exceptional designer interiors, an elevator and two levels of idyllic outdoor space on charming Barrow Street. Inside the 5,336-square-foot townhouse, tall ceilings with recessed and designer light fixtures soar above hardwood floors, seven wood-burning fireplaces and updated extra-tall windows. A classic high stoop flanked by exquisite ironwork ushers you into the main entertaining level, where a large living room wrapped in custom built-ins flows to a formal dining room and a sitting room flanked by a convenient midnight kitchen. A powder room and coat closets complete the well-planned level. Board your private elevator or descend the handsome staircase to explore the inviting indoor-outdoor garden level. Here, exposed beam ceilings, stone tile floors and brick walls nod to the home's historic origins. Enjoy a second powder room and plenty of space for casual dining and relaxing alongside a spectacular chef's kitchen anchored by a waterfall breakfast counter. French doors tempt you out to the magnificent garden surrounded by tall privacy walls, a pergola seating area and a lush canopy of trees. A bedroom suite on this level is perfect for guests or staff. Downstairs, the fully finished, full-height cellar level easily accommodates a family room or home gym encircled by numerous closets and a large laundry room. Head to the top level to explore the full-floor primary suite, an expansive sanctuary featuring a king-size bedroom with treetop views and a fireplace. Rows of closets flank a large packing island in the model-worthy dressing area. Ahead, the spa bathroom of your dreams boasts a jetted soaking tub, walk-in shower, and fireplace under dramatic atrium windows. On the third floor, you'll find two more secondary suites with private bathrooms and walk-in closets — one opens to its own extra-large private terrace. This move-in ready home's extensive updates include a new roof and smart home wiring. Nestled in the highly desirable Greenwich Village Historic District, 42 Barrow sits among a charming row of six brick Italianate townhouses built in 1851 by Smith Woodruff. According to the historic district designation report, "This row of houses serves as a reminder of the sober design and good workmanship of many of the forgotten builders of the mid-nineteenth century." Located on a quintessential tree-lined block in the heart of the West Village, this home is surrounded by the fantastic architecture, shopping, dining and nightlife that make this one of the world's most coveted residential enclaves. Washington Square Park and sprawling Hudson River Park provide abundant outdoor space and world-class recreation, with The High Line, Gansevoort Beach and Little Island just over a half-mile away. Transportation is effortless with 1, A/C/E, B/D/F/M and PATH trains, excellent bus service, West Street and CitiBikes right outside your door.
