Yahoo Lifestyle This $35 Million Townhouse in N.Y.C.’s Greenwich Village Has a Private Rooftop Terrace
Last year, New York’s Greenwich Village saw an opulent townhouse with ties to the signers of the Declaration of Independence come to market. Now, another abode—dating back to 1860—just listed in the area for $35 million. If you want to sign your John Hancock for the renovated digs, the Stein Team of Sotheby’s International Realty – Downtown Manhattan Brokerage holds the listing.
Located at 34 West 12th Street, the townhouse stands six stories tall as a triple-mint fixture, meaning it’s in excellent condition from the living spaces to the bathrooms. Brooklyn-based architectural firm Studio SC was behind its painstaking three-year renovation, which includes a fully restored Italianate facade that leads into home’s parlor floor. Five bedrooms and three bathrooms are spread across its nearly 7,375 square feet in addition to luxe amenities like a custom wet bar, a landscaped garden, and a rooftop terrace. And those are just the icing on the cake.

Polished marble slabs also span the walls here, next to walnut-lined cabinetry that leads to the backyard patio. Owners can take meals at the breakfast bar, the nearby dining area, or the formal dining room back on the parlor floor. Alfresco dining space opposite the outdoor kitchen on the garden floor is also sure to make entertaining guests a breeze. The living room’s custom wet bar is another ideal place to catch up with friends or enjoy a nightcap.
Soaring ceilings over 11 feet tall allow natural light to pour into the home throughout other notable spaces like the family room and home office up on the fifth floor. The primary suite covers the entire floor below, where the bedroom features a Caldia Verde marble fireplace, Ornare walnut walk-in closets, and a spa-like ensuite laced with Nordic Grey honed marble, in addition to a soaking tub by Duravit. The home elevator makes trips the level and rooftop terrace, two floors above, more convenient after a long day’s work.
Planters and a trio of spaces for lounging and outdoor meals span the top-floor terrace with neighborhood views. Other amenities like a lower-level gym and wine cellar round out the townhouse’s offerings on one of Greenwich Village’s most idyllic tree-lined streets.
