$6.95M historic West Village townhouse has a rooftop solarium with Freedom Tower views

January 4, 2018

In the middle of a lovely cobblestoned block in the coveted West Village, the five-story Federal-style townhouse at 334 West 12th Street was built in 1853, but its charms hold up against its neighbors in the Greenwich Village Historic District and beyond. Asking $6.95 million, the 20-foot-wide single-family townhouse has two entrances, five bedrooms, a rear garden that looks like something out of an Italian villa, a large south-facing terrace with views of the Freedom Tower, and its crowning jewel, a skylit solarium brimming with greenery.

Located on one of the neighborhood’s most charming townhouse streets, the home offers the grand ceiling heights and details–though the listing doesn’t show a lot of pictures–that make homes like this such treasures.

It’s the amazing outdoor spaces that make it special, including a heavenly planted solarium on the top floor; through a glass wall is a large rooftop terrace. The ground floor even offers two more outdoor spaces in the front and the back of the house.

Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy are selling their West Village townhouse for $9.75M

By Michelle Cohen

From the wine cellar to the terraces, roof deck, and outdoor kitchen, the West Village home of actors Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy is a dreamy four-story urban refuge. But according to the New York Times, the celebrity pair is seeking even more space for their family; they've put the 3,890-square-foot home at 19 Downing Street on the market for $9,750,000. To complement its timeless beauty, prize-winning interiors by the architecture firm of BKSK added modern luxury to the Greek revival townhouse. Three outdoor spaces make it an all-season natural for entertaining Hollywood royalty or just friends and family.
