Property Description

Rare 25-foot wide townhouse in prime Greenwich Village. Investor or opportunity for a single family residence.

Introducing 3 East 9th Street, a magnificent 5-story, 25-foot-wide Greek Revival townhouse perfectly positioned in the prestigious Gold Coast of historic Greenwich Village. This offering presents a remarkable opportunity for an investor or for conversion into a grand single-family residence. One of only two buildings on the block to retain its original Greek Revival stoop, this historic property stands as a proud testament to 19th-century architecture. Built in 1840 on a 25 x 105-foot lot, the home spans approximately 8,245 square feet of interior living space, complemented by 1,225 square feet of private outdoor space.

Currently configured as nine luxury rental units, the townhouse has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated over the years, all while preserving its rich architectural details. Throughout the property, one will find exquisite herringbone parquet hardwood floors, intricate architectural moldings, a stunning marble mosaic vestibule, and original doors and hardware that harken back to a bygone era. Soaring ceiling heights, reaching up to 13 feet, enhance the home's sense of grandeur and light. Renovations have seamlessly blended old-world charm with modern conveniences, including top-of-the-line appliances by Sub-Zero, Bosch, and Miele. Many of the residences are outfitted with in-unit washer/dryers, state-of-the-art split air conditioning systems, wood-burning fireplaces, and private outdoor spaces. The property also includes a spacious 1,250-square-foot basement offering abundant storage and laundry facilities, bringing the total usable space to nearly 9,500 square feet.

The garden level features two one-bedroom apartments, each with a private entrance beneath the stoop, wood-burning fireplaces, and renovated kitchens and bathrooms. The rear unit enjoys exclusive access to a 400-square-foot terrace and a 250-square-foot side yard, with ceiling heights at 8'3". The Parlor Floor offers two grand one-bedroom apartments with soaring 13-foot ceilings, sleeping lofts, oversized windows, and beautifully renovated kitchens and bathrooms. The front unit boasts two wood-burning fireplaces, and both units feature in-unit washer/dryers.

On the second floor, a gracious two-bedroom apartment occupies the front of the building, while an oversized one-bedroom apartment is situated at the rear. Both units are enhanced by high ceilings, oversized windows, renovated kitchens and bathrooms, and the front apartment includes two wood-burning fireplaces and an in-unit washer/dryer, with ceiling heights of 11'6". The third floor presents a full-floor two-bedroom residence with soaring 10'6" ceilings, oversized windows, two wood-burning fireplaces, a renovated kitchen and bathroom, an in-unit washer/dryer, and a private 575-square-foot rooftop terrace directly off the living room. The fourth floor is comprised of two expansive studio apartments, each offering high ceilings and abundant natural light.

The building's exterior has been lovingly preserved, and all mechanical systems have been upgraded or replaced as needed. Heat is delivered via a central hot water system, and each unit is equipped with its own through-the-wall air conditioning unit. Located within an R7-2 and R10 residential zoning district on a 2,635-square-foot lot, the property benefits from approximately 819 square feet of unused FAR, offering additional development potential. Rental income and operating expenses are available upon request.

3 East 9th Street is a rare and distinguished opportunity to own a piece of New York City's architectural history, offering endless possibilities in one of Manhattan's most sought-after neighborhoods.
