7 East 9th Street

The parlor faces south through oversized windows and runs 47 feet under 13-foot ceilings, with its original crown molding and an original fireplace mantel set between built-ins. The residence is a three-bedroom, four-bath parlor duplex in a townhouse cooperative just off Fifth Avenue, one block from Washington Square Park.

The open kitchen has custom mahogany millwork, Corian countertops and a Calacatta Viola marble island, with a Gaggenau cooktop, plancha and oven, Sub-Zero refrigeration and freezer, and a Miele dishwasher. A Venetian plaster staircase rises beneath a skylight at the middle of the house, and a breakfast nook opens to a private side terrace.

New York City's tax-lot record dates the building to 1838. It stands five stories, with four residential units, on a lot 25 feet wide and about 92 feet deep, and it sits inside the Greenwich Village Historic District. The listing places the block in what it calls Greenwich Village's Gold Coast. No architect or builder of the original house turned up in the record, so none is named here.

The listing says the residence was renovated in 2020 by the architect Robert Kahn, who turned a conventional duplex into a loft-like home that shows the full scale of the original house, and that it was featured in House Beautiful. Central multi-zone HVAC was installed in 2020, and Savant home automation runs the lighting, shades, climate and AV, with Lutron lighting and motorized shades.

The upper level holds the primary suite, with 11-foot ceilings, an original fireplace and two walk-in closets overlooking East 9th Street, plus the second bedroom, a second laundry room and a north-facing terrace for dining. The third bedroom sits apart from the entertaining floor, with an en-suite bath, an original fireplace, a murphy bed and a 100-inch projection screen with surround sound, and its windows look over Greenwich Village gardens. The cooperative is pet-friendly, with a full-time property manager, 24-hour video security and a video intercom.
