West Village Houses
137 Barrow Street, #4A

TRUE 2-BEDROOM GEM! This tastefully updated home realizes the full potential of the larger format 2-bedrooms in this co-op and does so with flair. Move-in ready for its next owners, you’re greeted by beautiful hardwood flooring in living areas, a renovated kitchen and bath, in-unit W/D, crown molding, long row of hall closets, and two bedrooms each that would accommodate a king bed and several other furnishings. This layout delivers important separation between living/dining area in the front (facing West) and bedrooms in the back (facing East).

Living-Dining are exeptionally sunny because it looks over the long view of a full square block of green space owned by the co-op, providing partial Hudson River views in the Winter and lush green trees and songbirds in the warmer months. This is a fourth-floor walkup apartment, and the very best kind with wide, sturdy stairs, landings at each half floor, brilliant sunshine throughout the day, and very low monthlies. Kitchen features veined granite countertops generous in size and delightful in natural beauty, mosaic tile backsplash, solid maple wood cabinets, durable ceramic floors and full-sized appliances including a GE Profile range & convection oven, LG washer/dryer & a Bosch dishwasher along with a full-sized stainless sink. For those who entertain more than they cook, the kitchen can be fully opened to the living room to create an eat-in breakfast counter.

The bath has also been updated, with a curved edge granite vanity top, low-profile bathtub for easy entry plus upgraded tiling from floor to ceiling. There are new doors and hardware to all closets and rooms throughout the apartment. The primary bedroom is about 20’ long, and the second bedroom boasts a built-in desk with bookshelf and cabinet storage that will have you gazing out the window while you WFH or simply curl up and read by natural daylight. West Village Houses is a free-market co-op that features large apartments, private keyed green spaces, onsite professional management (Akam), two live-in supers, full-time buildings & grounds staff, and a commitment to providing quality non-fanciful primary residences for its shareholders in the best part of West Village.

The co-op is pet-friendly, permits subletting for 3 of 6 years, allows guarantors and co-purchasers, and has bike storage. 626 Washington is part of “Site 1”- a full square block owned (outright, among several other acres) by the co-op. It is a keyed, private green space with mature trees, bbq grills for your use, central laundry, and bike storage for you and your neighbors that will transport you far away from an urban mindset- right in your backyard. One of the best parts of this apartment is the co-op to which it belongs. The building is a few short blocks to Google’s headquarters in NY, ABC/Disney’s rising studios and a flurry of incredibly pricey and valuable waterfront new development.
