Haijawahi kupatikana hapo awali, Penthouse iliyoko 719 Greenwich Street inatoa fursa adimu ya kuunda mojawapo ya makazi ya kipekee zaidi katika West Village, ikichanganya haiba ya ajabu ya usanifu, faragha, historia, na maisha halisi ya katikati ya jiji.

Ikiwa na takriban futi za mraba 3,060 pamoja na futi za mraba 1,100 za nafasi ya nje, penthouse hii, inayopokea mwanga wa moja kwa moja kutoka pande zote nne, inatofautishwa na mazingira ya ajabu ya paa ambayo kwa kawaida hayapatikani katikati ya jiji, ikiwa na mandhari iliyolindwa inayoangalia West Village Historic District. Ngazi maalum ya chuma na mbao asilia, yenye vidokezo hafifu vya mtindo wa baharini vinavyoakisi maisha ya mmiliki wa muda mrefu kama baharia aliyejitolea, hupanda hadi kwenye nyumba ndogo ya kuvutia iliyo na msukumo wa Maine pamoja na baraza lililoezekwa, lililoko juu kabisa ya paa zinazolizunguka. Zaidi ya hapo, bustani kubwa ya faragha ya paa inafurahia mandhari ya kuvutia, ya moja kwa moja na isiyozuiliwa kuelekea kaskazini, ikitazama Hudson Yards na Empire State Building, pamoja na maghorofa mengine marefu; kuelekea mashariki kupita Jefferson Market Library; na kuelekea kusini hadi One World Trade Center. Mazingira haya yanayounganisha ndani na nje yanaweza kutumika hata nje ya miezi ya joto, yakitengeneza mandhari ya kipekee kwa ajili ya kula na kuburudisha wageni mwaka mzima, huku anga la jiji likiwa mandhari ya nyuma.

Ndani, haiba ya kihistoria imeenea kila mahali, ikiwa na nguzo za awali za mbao za kubeba jengo, mihimili, na matofali yaliyo wazi katika nafasi zote za kuishi zenye mtindo wa loft, pamoja na dari zenye urefu wa futi 10.5 na mahali pa moto pa kuni palipofunikwa kwa vipande vya granite vilivyorejeshwa, ambavyo hapo awali vilitengeneza njia za mitaa ya eneo hili. Kwa sasa, ina vyumba vinne vya kulala—chumba kikuu cha kona, vyumba viwili vya wageni (kimoja kinatumika kama ofisi), na loft ndogo yenye starehe ya kulala kwenye mezzanine—pamoja na ofisi/warsha tofauti. Mpangilio wa sakafu una ukubwa na unyumbufu wa kipekee, ukiwa na uwezekano usio na kikomo wa ukarabati kulingana na mahitaji yako maalum.

Jengo hili pia lina historia ya kipekee ya kitamaduni. Penthouse ilionyeshwa katika filamu ya Woody Allen, *Manhattan Murder Mystery*, na ilipigwa picha na mpiga picha mashuhuri wa National Geographic, George Steinmetz, anayejulikana kwa tafiti zake za ajabu za picha za angani, kwa ajili ya Gothamist. Bustani ya paa yenye mandhari ya malisho ilionyeshwa katikati ya jarida la National Geographic la Mei 2009, lililolenga paa za kijani kibichi kote duniani.

Iliyojengwa awali mwaka 1909 kama ghala la kuhifadhia vitabu, 719 Greenwich Street ni jengo la kipekee la loft lenye vitengo 12, likiwa na mbele ya matofali ya kihistoria na ukubwa wa karibu na wa kuvutia. Likiwa kwenye mtaa tulivu wenye miti kati ya Charles Street na Perry Street, jengo hilo liko umbali mfupi kutoka Hudson River Park na limezungukwa na mikahawa, maduka, maghala ya sanaa, na taasisi za kitamaduni zinazotambulisha West Village.

Never before available, the Penthouse at 719 Greenwich Street offers a rare opportunity to create one of the West Village’s most distinctive residences, combining extraordinary architectural character, privacy, history, and quintessential downtown living.

Encompassing approximately 3,060 square feet with an additional 1,100 square feet of outdoor space, the penthouse, with direct light coming in from all four sides, is distinguished by a remarkable rooftop setting unlike anything typically found downtown, with protected views over the West Village Historic District. A custom metal and natural wood staircase, featuring subtle nautical references that reflect the longtime owner’s life as a dedicated sailor, ascends to a charming Maine-inspired cottage and covered porch perched high above the surrounding rooftops. Beyond, the expansive private roof garden enjoys spectacular, direct unobstructed views North to Hudson Yards and the Empire State Building, along with other skyscrapers, East past the Jefferson Market Library, and South to One World Trade Center. The indoor-outdoor setting allows for use well beyond the warmer months, creating a singular backdrop for year-round dining and entertaining against the city skyline.

Inside, historic character abounds with original wooden structural columns, girders, and exposed brick throughout the loft-like living spaces, with 10.5-foot ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace clad in reclaimed granite pavers that once lined the neighborhood's blocks. Currently, it is comprised of four bedrooms - a corner primary suite, two guest bedrooms (one used as an office), and a cozy mezzanine sleeping loft - along with a separate office/workshop. The floor plate offers fantastic scale and flexibility, with endless renovation possibilities suited to your specific needs.

The property also has a remarkable cultural history. The penthouse was featured in Woody Allen’s film Manhattan Murder Mystery and photographed by acclaimed National Geographic photographer George Steinmetz, known for his extraordinary aerial studies, for Gothamist. The rooftop meadow is the featured centerfold in National Geographic’s May 2009 issue focusing on green roofs around the world.

Originally constructed in 1909 as a book depository, 719 Greenwich Street is a distinctive 12-unit pre-war loft building with a historic brick façade and an intimate scale. Set on a quiet, tree-lined block between Charles and Perry Streets, it sits moments from Hudson River Park and amidst the restaurants, shops, galleries, and cultural institutions that define the West Village.
