Featuring a fresh renovation by the owner, interior designer Shawn Henderson, this West Village co-op at 791 Greenwich Street blends a loft-like feel with classic Village charm. The biggest move made by Henderson—who counts Will Ferrell and Glenn Close as clients—was demolishing the wall between the former living and dining rooms in favor of an open concept. He also restored the original pine floors and created “pockets” of white and exposed brick throughout. Add to those charming details a hard-to-beat location near the corner of Bethune Street (“in the heart of the quietest and quaintest part of the West Village,” as the listing boasts) and you’re looking at a quintessential downtown pad for the asking price of $1.6 million.
A decorative fireplace anchors the west-facing living room, which is open to a dining area and a windowed kitchen featuring marble counters and “a mixture of satin black aluminum, stainless steel, and grey oak custom cabinetry.” The reclaimed wood “beams” were added by Henderson as were the custom shutters.
The bedroom has an en-suite bathroom (a powder room next to the kitchen can be used by guests) with heated terrazzo floors, brass fixtures, and a walk-in shower. There’s a closet in the bedroom in addition to a generous dressing room off the hallway. The listing mentions an “efficient home office” but according to the floorplan it measures just shy of 4′ x 3′ so we’ll chalk that up to extra storage space.
Located in a pet and pied-a-terre friendly co-op building, the unit comes with a washer and dryer, as well as central air. Monthly maintenance costs add up to $2,167.
