Description
Nestled in the heart of the West Village, this exquisite 21’-wide townhouse offers a rare blend of timeless elegance and modern comforts. Built in 1828, this Federal style home was gut-renovated and meticulously restored over a two-year period to capture the charm of the home’s historic roots while providing all the contemporary amenities that discerning buyer’s desire.
Stepping inside, you are greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that speaks to the home’s storied past. The interiors were painstakingly designed to maintain an authentic, period-appropriate feel, with nearly all finishes—hardware, fixtures, flooring, and lighting—salvaged from other historic homes.
Yet the layout and mechanicals, which include central AC and radiant-heated floors throughout, have all been modernized to allow for comfortable living and luxurious entertaining without sacrificing the home’s historical integrity. This rare blend of timeless elegance and modern living is hard to find in today’s market. The oversized chef’s kitchen is a true masterpiece and is equipped with period-inspired appliances including Big Chill fridge, Chicago Faucet fixtures, custom high-end cabinetry, and a 1951 Wedgewood stove that was featured in New York Magazine. The full-floor primary suite features pin-drop quiet upholstered walls, and an enviable room-sized walk-in-closet/dressing room.
The three full bathrooms also pay homage to the home’s heritage, featuring vintage hardware and finishes, English brands Lefroy Brooks and Barber Wilson fixtures, thermostatic showers, towel warmers, and custom stone and millwork that provide a spa-like retreat. Designed by Stedila Design Inc., every room in this refined home is elegantly appointed. Other notable features include: floor-to-ceiling glass atrium landings on the third and fourth floors, hand painted silk wallpaper by Stark in the dining room, handblocked archival print wallpaper from Hamilton & Weston in the hallways, intricate moldings and custom high-end millwork throughout, restored hardwood floors, and four woodburning fireplaces that invite you to unwind in luxury. Situated just moments away from quaint cafes, boutique shops, and quiet parks, this townhouse offers both tranquility and vibrant city living. This West Village treasure is perfect for buyers who seek a residence that harmoniously marries modern comforts with meticulously restored historic charm. 45 Barrow has been featured in Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation’s annual historic house tour and publications.
