Utukufu wa usanifu wa Uamsho wa Kirumi unapata uhai mpya kabisa katika penthouse hii ya kipekee yenye orofa mbili, iliyoko katikati ya jiji. Katika viwango viwili vya kuvutia, uwiano wa juu wa nafasi, vioo vya asili vya rangi, mihimili ya mbao iliyo wazi, na muundo wa kisasa vinaungana kuunda nyumba yenye hisia isiyopingika ya historia na upekee.

Juu, dari zilizofunikwa kwa mbao zenye urefu wa futi 20 zinainuka juu ya maeneo mapana ya kuishi na kuburudisha wageni, ambapo maelezo ya kihistoria yanakutana na mtindo wa viwandani unaoonekana kupitia mifereji ya hewa, chuma, na vioo vilivyo wazi. Madirisha ya vioo vya rangi yanaonekana katika sehemu mbalimbali za makazi haya, yakibadilisha mabaki ya kanisa la zamani kuwa vivutio vya usanifu vilivyojaa rangi.

Katikati ya orofa ya juu kuna jiko la mpishi lililo wazi, lenye vigae vya michoro na kisiwa kikubwa, linaloungana na eneo la kuishi na kuelekea kwenye mtaro binafsi wa futi za mraba 500. Mtaro huo una jiko la nje pamoja na nafasi ya kutosha kwa ajili ya kula na kustarehe, na kuendeleza nyumba hii hadi chini ya anga lililo wazi.

Orofa ya chini ina vyumba viwili vikubwa vya kulala vyenye bafu na huduma zake, huku kukiwa na chumba cha burudani kati yao ambacho kinaweza kubadilishwa kuwa chumba cha tatu cha kulala, na hivyo kuendeleza upekee wa nyumba hii katika maeneo yake ya faragha zaidi. Vioo vya rangi, mapambo ya kifahari, na maelezo ya mapambo yasiyotarajiwa yanaendelea kuonekana katika nyumba nzima, huku uwiano wake unaoweza kubadilika ukiacha nafasi kwa vyumba vya kulala, maeneo ya ubunifu, au maeneo ya ziada ya kuishi.

Hapo awali lilijengwa mwaka 1860 kama Kanisa la Methodist la Washington Square, linalojulikana kama Kanisa la Amani, Novare lilibadilishwa mwaka 2006 kuwa jengo dogo la kondominiamu lenye makazi manane pekee. Likiwa katika makutano ya Greenwich Village, West Village, na SoHo, nyumba hii inatoa mchanganyiko adimu wa historia ya usanifu, nafasi binafsi ya nje, na mtindo wa maisha wa kipekee wa katikati ya jiji.

The grandeur of Romanesque Revival architecture takes on an entirely new life in this remarkable Downtown duplex penthouse. Across two dramatic levels, soaring proportions, original stained glass, exposed timber beams, and contemporary design come together to create a home with an unmistakable sense of history and individuality.

Upstairs, 20-foot wood-clad ceilings rise above expansive living and entertaining spaces, where historic details meet an industrial edge of exposed ductwork, steel, and glass. Stained-glass windows appear throughout the residence, transforming remnants of the former church into colorful architectural focal points.

At the heart of the upper level, an open chef's kitchen with graphic tilework and a generous island flows into the living area and out to a 500-square-foot private terrace. Complete with an outdoor kitchen and ample room for dining and lounging, the terrace extends the home beneath the open sky.

The lower level offers two expansive bedroom suites with a media room between them, which can be converted into a third bedroom , carrying the home's singular character into more intimate spaces. Stained glass, rich finishes, and unexpected decorative details continue throughout, while the flexible proportions leave room for bedrooms, creative spaces, or additional living areas.

Originally built in 1860 as the Washington Square Methodist Church, known as the Peace Church, Novare was transformed in 2006 into an intimate condominium of just eight residences. At the meeting point of Greenwich Village, the West Village, and SoHo, the home offers a rare combination of architectural history, private outdoor space, and unmistakably Downtown living.
