Description

Set along picturesque West 12th Street in the heart of the West Village, Residence 8W at The Greenwich Lane is an exceptional 2,079-square-foot, two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom floor-through home defined by grand proportions, remarkable light, exceptional privacy, and timeless design.

Occupying the western wing of the building with just two residences per floor, the home enjoys both northern and southern exposures, creating a wonderful crossflow of natural light throughout the day. Every room (except for the secondary guest bath) has a window — a rarity that gives the residence an unusually open, airy quality.

Originally conceived by FXFOWLE with interiors by celebrated designer Thomas O’Brien, Residence 8W combines the character and proportions of a classic pre-war apartment with the craftsmanship, comfort, and sophistication of one of Downtown Manhattan’s most distinguished residential developments. Beamed ceilings, classical millwork, rich oak floors, and beautifully considered details lend the home a sense of permanence and understated elegance.

A paneled entry door with Nanz hardware opens to a generous formal gallery, creating a gracious sense of arrival and separation between the public and private spaces. Beyond, the impressive living room spans approximately 28 feet, with wonderful scale for both everyday living and entertaining. Herringbone oak floors add warmth and character, while oversized north-facing windows frame tranquil views over The Greenwich Lane’s lush private garden.

The windowed Smallbone kitchen is equally refined, pairing timeless design with exceptional functionality. Custom wood cabinetry is complemented by soapstone countertops, a mirrored backsplash, Waterworks fittings, and a suite of Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances.

Tucked privately into the southern corner of the residence, the primary suite is a serene retreat with abundant natural light and two generous walk-in closets. Its luxurious windowed bath offers a quintessential New York surprise: views of the Empire State Building. Finished with a custom millwork vanity, marble mosaic floors, an undermount soaking tub, and a separate glass-enclosed shower, it is as beautifully designed as it is functional.

The generously proportioned second bedroom offers its own sense of privacy and comfort, while a sophisticated powder room with custom marble mosaic flooring completes the residence.

Included in the sale is a 38sf storage space. An SUV parking spot is also available for sale. Please inquire with us!

The Greenwich Lane offers an extraordinary level of service and amenities, including full-time doorman and concierge service, a resident manager, 25-meter swimming pool and hot tub, state-of-the-art fitness and wellness center with yoga and treatment rooms, golf simulator, screening room, children’s playroom, and the development’s magnificent landscaped central garden.

Perfectly positioned on one of the West Village’s most coveted tree-lined blocks, Residence 8W delivers something increasingly rare: the scale and soul of a classic Downtown home, the privacy of a floor-through residence, and the effortless luxury of The Greenwich Lane — all in the heart of the West Village.
