House: 235 West 11th Street

The perfect experience of townhouse living can be found at 235 West 11th Street, which has just undergone a complete gut renovation and expansion with an impressive transformation. Now standing as a six-story, mint-condition home that features an elevator and four private outdoor spaces, including a 40’ deep garden bordered by neighboring townhouse yards and three spacious balconies, whole house Warmboard radiant heated floors, and a fully integrated Savant Home System. Situated on one of the West Village’s premier townhouse blocks, this home is set back from the street with a beautifully landscaped forecourt providing privacy and security. Upon entry, a gracious foyer leads to a spectacular kitchen boasting a 15’ long Calacatta Gold Borghini central island, custom millwork cabinets by Leicht, and top-of-the-line appliances. Throughout the home, chevron rift & quartered white oak flooring, Venetian plastered ceilings, and millwork exude elegance. The parlor level offers a generous space for entertaining with tall windows North and South each with Juliet balconies, a private dining room, and a 25’-deep rear parlor with a gas fireplace overlooking the townhouse gardens. The full-floor primary suite ensures privacy from the rest of the house and includes ample dressing closets, a private terrace, and a three-windowed bathroom with chevron-laid marble floors, Waterworks fixtures, a soaking tub and a large windowed shower. Three additional bedrooms, each with en-suite bathrooms, occupy the upper floors. The top level can also serve as an office or sitting room with three exposures of casement windows facing South and East, offering views of townhouse roofs and the Freedom Tower. The elevator services all levels of this home and is adjacent to the north-facing roof terrace. The finished basement has been excavated to provide 9’ ceiling heights, wine storage, a laundry room, and a rear recreational room with two skylights that easily functions as a fitness area, media room, or office. 235 West 11th Street is located on what has become one of the most sought after enclaves in the West Village. Rows of renovated townhouse mansions, celebrated fine dining, and Bleecker Street shopping, and the Hudson River Park, High Line, and Whitney Museum are within steps of this residence.
