Tucked into the lower levels of an 1880s townhouse at 239 1/2 Waverly Place, this restored residence mixes original details, modern interiors and townhouse living. Asking $2,795,000, this unique maisonette triplex co-op unfolds within a historic building on a beautiful West Village street. With the feel of a townhouse-within-a-townhouse, living space is spread over three floors, with its own street-level entrance and two private outdoor spaces, including a roof deck with ivy-covered walls.
Built in 1880 and professionally renovated in recent decades, the triplex offers 1,170 square feet inside and nearly 500 square feet of exterior space, including a garden and rooftop deck. Its current configuration offers one bedroom, two baths and a formal living and dining room.
A well-designed kitchen includes a vented Bluestar range, a Franke sink with reverse osmosis filtration and a hot water mixer, a Miele dishwasher, and a Liebherr refrigerator. A bespoke butcher block island anchors the space. Also on this floor, you’ll find a large storage closet, a washer/dryer and a full bathroom featuring Rosso Alicante marble slab accents and a steam shower.
Up a short flight of stairs is a spacious formal dining room with a private balcony leading to a landscaped patio below (this standalone space could also be used as a second bedroom). Throughout, you’ll find inventive built-in storage and fully automated lighting, HVAC and alarm systems.
The top-floor primary bedroom gets the luxury of a gas fireplace. A spacious en-suite bath is clad in Thassos marble slab with a sunken soaking tub and a steam shower. Above the third floor is a private rooftop deck surrounded by ivy-covered privacy walls.
The West Village building is an attractive brick-clad five-unit co-operative. It’s difficult to find a property in the sought-after neighborhood without a link to at least one celebrity or notable resident, and this one is no exception; previous owners include an Elle magazine editor and a writer for “Weeds.”
