708 Washington Street # 3B

For decades the home and studio to an artist and their partner, this two-bedroom home has undergone a recent renovation and features a brand new kitchen, beautiful new hardwood floors and two big bedrooms in the heart of the West Village. Enter into the spacious living/dining/kitchen area to appreciate the big open space and the sparkling new kitchen. There is plenty of room for living, dining and cooking. It's a party-thrower's paradise. And what you won’t see is also what you won’t hear -- consulting with a sound engineer, the owners heavily invested in sound isolation throughout the unit. In many post-war buildings of this era, you hear your neighbors every sneeze. These sellers installed the most sophisticated acoustic technologies including insulation material and a floating ceiling and floor. This has resulted in a pin-drop quiet home, which also doesn’t transfer sound OUT, so you can play your music without the neighbors above and below complaining. They also updated and upgraded the dated electrical system. The master bedroom is huge with plenty of space for a king-size bed plus a sitting and/or home office area. The second bedroom is nearly as large. Both have striking views of the much-talked-about mega mansion near completion across the street. The bathroom was also recently redone with new sparkling white tile which contrasts beautifully with the custom floor made by the artist of stones (among them, Manhattan Schist, the bedrock of Manhattan) and polyurethane. There is also a washer/dryer in the unit. The apartment is part of the free market development called the West Villages Houses. The coop is very strong financially, has a video intercom system, on site management office and 24-hour security, large maintenance staff, bike rooms and additional laundry facilities. It's close to all the great amenities of NYC’s famous West Village including Hudson River Park, the Whitney Museum, Meatpacking district, high end boutiques and restaurants.
