19 Downing Street, New York, (Greenwich Village), NY, 10014

As seen in the New York Times, 19 Downing Street is a masterfully designed townhouse with interiors by BKSK, which earned an American Architecture Prize for Interior Design.

Originally built in the 1880's, this Greek revival townhouse features four oversized bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, and three outdoor spaces, ideally located at the crossroads of the West Village, SoHo, and Greenwich Village.

Upon entering, you'll be enchanted by the home's original charm, seamlessly modernized with thoughtful updates. The foyer doubles as a mudroom, with floor-to-ceiling double sliding doors that can close off the space. You'll also find a large coat closet, a discreet powder room, as well as a concealable custom-built home office with floor to ceiling multi-slide doors.

With its soaring 11-foot ceilings, the main living area-the nexus of this home-has a loft-like quality with an open floor plan connecting living room, dining room, and kitchen, centered by an elegant fireplace. The kitchen features a Miele appliance suite, electric blinds, heated flooring, and a floor-to-ceiling folding glass wall that opens to the terrace, making al fresco dining effortless. Another unique twist is the skylight that doubles as the glass block floor for the terrace above. This feature provides the kitchen with natural light by day, while the kitchen lights illuminate the terrace flooring above by night.

The modern staircase features dark wood and metal, along with a delicate woven leather railing detail. At the top of the first landing, you will find the inviting den/media room, anchored by a charming fireplace. Perfect for casual indoor-outdoor gatherings, this room features built-in bookcases and a wet bar with a fridge and dishwasher. The rotating glass doors open to the terrace with a built-in banquet nestled under a greenery-filled trellis. Continuing from this room, past more bookshelves, a full bathroom, and a linen closet leads to the first of four bedrooms, featuring a large walk-in closet and a beautiful fireplace.

The third floor features two well-appointed bedrooms, each with custom closets and shelving, as well as ensuite bathrooms. The north-facing bedroom overlooks serene townhouse gardens, while the south-facing bedroom enjoys treetop views of Downing Street.

One flight up, the full-floor primary suite offers size and privacy, flooded with natural light. It features custom-built closets, a wide hallway illuminated by skylights, and a luxurious primary bathroom with dual vanities, custom storage, radiant floor heating, and a glass-enclosed steam shower. But it's the beautiful fireplace and deep-soaking claw-foot tub that complete this room as a romantic sanctuary.

The rooftop terrace is designed for exceptional outdoor living, with areas for sitting, dining, and entertaining amidst a garden, offering sweeping views of West Village rooftops and One World Trade Center. The outdoor kitchen includes a fridge, ice maker, and propane-fueled Ooni Koda pizza oven, while an electric retractable awning provides protection from the elements.

The finished basement includes a thermo-regulated wine cellar laundry room, a vented washer and dryer, and a large cedar-lined closet for garment storage. This exceptional home also features modern comfort with a multi-zone temperature control system and a security camera system, along with an integrated Sonos sound system for high-quality audio throughout.
