FEDERAL TOWNHOUSE IN SOHO
Beautiful Federal style townhouse with elegant Flemish-bond brickwork near the intersection of Sullivan And Prince Street. This 22 foot wide house delivers 4,752 square feet of building mass and has a multi-windowed addition that runs from top to bottom of the house. Located in the landmarked Sullivan-Thompson Historic District, this home enjoys the best of both worlds as the location enjoys the tranquility typical of Greenwich Village, while having proximity to the heart and energy of SoHo. The surrounding tree cover, small building scale and quiet pace of this site deliver a quality of life that is truly hard to find in SoHo.

Currently set up as a two family residence, with a thoroughly renovated lower duplex comprising the ground and parlor floors. Comprehensive renovation work was completed in 2014, and included a full demolition and re-configuration of the garden level, addition of 3 new bathrooms, new kitchen, new well-proportioned stairwell and creation of a paved multilevel rear garden. The addition of a large new French window near the Parlor level kitchen, provides a lovely transition out to the garden seamlessly integrating interior and exterior living. New lighting and outlets were installed, new hot & cold supply lines, plumbing fixtures and lines, while waste lines were upgraded and replaced. Important structural upgrades were implemented as well, with new concrete and steel supports applied to rectify long-standing masonry issues. High-efficiency central air-conditioning and heating systems were added as well as radiant underfloor heat systems. Fenestration was replaced with the installation of well-insulated glass windows throughout the lower duplex.

The upper two floors have received some upgrades, but could certainly use further renovations while any new work would be streamlined and simplified due to the building wide infrastructural work done during the 2014 renovation. There are five bedrooms upstairs as well as a large open kitchen and full building width living room. At the rear of the top floor is a sequestered and self-sufficient bedroom in the building addition with a full bath and small kitchenette, perfect for a nanny or guests. 134 Sullivan provides an excellent framework for investment as much of the heavy lifting and renovation has already been completed. Perfect opportunity for the single-family end user, live with income end user as well as the pure investor looking for high rental yield and return. Showings by appointment with 24 hours’ notice required. Listing courtesy of Sothebys International Realty ...
