Orijinalman konstrui an 1860 kòm yon sèl rezidans 25-pye nan stil Federal, 449 ak 449 ½ Hudson se opòtinite ra pou kreye yon rezidans grand West Village ki byen ajiste. Actuellement, se yon pè miwa de de kay fanmi sèl, estrikti orijinal la te divize nan ane 1980 yo an de adrès ak yon mi firewall CMU 4” ant yo ki, lè ou fè yon egzamen, sanble li se non-striktirèl ak sitou sipèfisyèl. 449 ak 449 1/2 Hudson ap ofri eksklizivman kòm yon pè pou yon pri total de $11,995,000. Taks pwopriyete pou 449 Hudson se $2,128 pa mwa ak 449 1/2 se $2,102 pa mwa (total pou kay la se $4,230 pa mwa).

Geometri ki anba—planche aliyen, kat fenèt nan tou de lèv East ak West, plis fenèt clerestory jimo ki kouri nò-sid sou do kay la—sipòte yon retou valab nan lavi plen-longè ak ekleraj natirèl eksepsyonèl soti nan maten pou ale nan lannwit.

Reunifikasyon an retabli bilding lan nan echèl li te genyen an ak debouche yon pwogram ki aliyen ak atant modèn yo:

• Sikilasyon vètikal santralize, ki enkli potansyèl asansè
• Koneksyon san pwoblèm ant salon ak jaden
• Suite Master nan nivo dènye etaj la ak aksè sou do kay la
• Etaj ki fèt pou fèt ak lwazi nan tout lajè

Nan lajè sa a, bilding lan soti nan kontrent yon kay townhouse etwat tipik—ki pèmèt pi long vi, amelyore pénétration limyè jou, ak planifikasyon planche ki pi fleksib.

ARKITEKTUR + KONBINE

Konpozisyon orijinal la rete atravè kouch bri ki kontinye atravè fasad la, yon cornice inifye nan liy do kay la, ak nivo planch ki aliyen ak presizyon. Fimen bonhale ki mache ak plan ki miwa plis ranfòse simetri enèvan bilding lan. Chemen an pou entegrasyon se etranjman pwòp:

• Mi demarkasyon an sanble li pa pote chaj
• Retire li espere pèmèt 25-pye span san kolòn
• Layout ki aliyen sipòte inifikasyon efikas
• Yon rapò presque pafè ant sifas ak volim sipòte objektif bilding vèt

POTANSYEL EKSPANSYON

Zonaj la sipòte elajisman ki gen sans:

• Aktyèl kare andedan: 4,432, ak 3,324 SF sou tè a. Plis 160 SF sal solèy ki sòti nan salon ki mennen nan yon espas lakou prive.
• Pèmèt (FAR 3.44): ~5,779 SF (Dwa ki pa itilize: ~2,455 SF)

PRESEDAN SOU LANDMARK

VIZIT

Vizit yo fèt sèlman sou randevou. Bilding 449 ap lwe bay lokatè ki peye to mache ki pral kite an Jiyè 2026. Ajan vandè a ka montre 449 ½ konplètman jouk dat sa a. Tout estrikti a ap delivre vid.

Originally constructed in 1860 as a single 25-foot Federal-style residence, 449 and 449 ½ Hudson are rare opportunity to create a right-sized grand West Village residence. Currently a mirrored pair of twin single-family homes, the original structure was divided in the 1980s into two addresses with a 4” CMU firewall between them which, upon probing, appears non-structural and largely superficial. 449 and 449 1/2 Hudson are being offered exclusively as a pair for total asking price of $11,995,000. Property tax for 449 Hudson is $2,128/month and 449 1/2 is $2,102/month (total for the house is $4,230/month).

Underlying geometry—aligned floorplates, four-windows at both East and West elevations, plus twin clerestory windows running North-South along the building roof—support a valuable return to full-width living and exceptional natural light from morning to night.

Reunification restores the building to its intended scale and unlocks a program aligned with modern expectations:

• Centralized vertical circulation, including elevator potential
• Seamless connection from parlor to garden
• Top Floor Level Master Suite with rooftop access
• Full-width entertaining floors

At this width, the building departs from the constraints of a typical narrow townhouse—enabling longer sightlines, improved daylight penetration, and materially more flexible floorplate planning.

ARCHITECTURE + COMBINATION

The original composition remains through continuous brick coursing across the facade, a unified cornice at the roofline, and precisely aligned floor levels. Working food-burning fireplaces and mirrored layouts further reinforce the building’s inherent symmetry. The path to integration is unusually clean:

• Demising wall appears non-load-bearing
• Removal expected to allow 25-foot column-free spans
• Aligned layouts support efficient unification
• A nearly perfect surface-to-volume ratio supports green building objectives

EXPANSION POTENTIAL

Zoning supports meaningful enlargement:

• Current interior square footage: 4,432, with 3,324 SF above grade. Plus 160 SF sunrooms off the parlor leading to a private backyard space.
• Allowable (FAR 3.44): ~5,779 SF (Unused rights: ~2,455 SF)
