2 Fifth Ave, 4 R Greenwich Village, New York

Treetop views from the moment you walk in.

Residence 4R at 2 Fifth Avenue is a just-completed gut renovation that no one has ever lived in. The next owner inherits every finish, fixture, and system at day zero, floating above the treetops of West 8th Street, in one of Greenwich Village’s great full-service buildings.

A gracious twelve-foot foyer opens to a living room that runs nearly twenty-three feet deep to a wall of oversized windows over the trees, with custom built-in HVAC and millwork beneath the sills, new wide-plank floors, and crown moldings throughout. Beyond it, a true separate dining area sits between the kitchen and the door to your own private terrace, perched directly in the tree canopy.

The kitchen is finished in deep green custom cabinetry under marble countertops, with a Bosch 800 Series gas range, Bosch Benchmark built-in refrigerator, and fully integrated Miele dishwasher. The bath is entirely new, in marble with Waterworks hardware throughout. The bedroom runs seventeen feet, faces the same green view, and connects to one of two walk-in closets; storage runs throughout the home. A new washer and dryer in the residence, a rare amenity in this building, alongside new electrical and new air conditioning. Design by Josh Barba-Hill; construction by Element Design Group.

2 Fifth Avenue, designed by Emery Roth & Sons in 1952, rises over the head of Washington Square Park with a private circular drive off Fifth Avenue. Full-time doormen and concierge, fitness center, residents’ garden, garage, bike room, and library. Pieds-à-terre, co-purchasing, parents buying, and pets are all welcome. The park is your front yard; the Village is your neighborhood. 2% Flip Tax.
