On one of the most sought-after blocks in New York City, facing Renwick Row and home to celebrities, tech moguls and artists, this 1846 townhouse co-op offers the updated graciousness of fashionable old Greenwich Village. With its working marble fireplace, hand-nailed oak parquet floors, original crown moldings and ceilings soaring to nearly 12 feet, you can easily picture Edith Wharton or Henry James comfortably at home here. Today's visitors can take the wonderful wood-paneled elevator to the third floor and find this serene apartment situated at the back of the building, its three exposures overlooking beautiful gardens, with double-paned windows to ensure extra quiet. There are four tall, deep closets, a sunny, windowed bath, a substantial built-in bookcase, and a small but efficient windowed kitchen with pantry. The eight-unit building is professionally managed, with a super to handle garbage pickup days, snow-shoveling, hallway maintenance, etc. The cherry on top: a shared, lovingly planted roof deck with stunning views over the Village rooftops west to the Hudson River, north to the Empire State and all the way south to the Freedom Tower. Sorry, no pied-a-terre.
