“STREET OF DREAMS…. .
Can eight short City blocks encompass the world? Practically.
Although our blessed City is loaded with charming and quirky streets, few have as many quirks per foot as Bedford Street in Greenwich Village. Lined almost exclusively with brownstones and low-rise apartment buildings, Bedford Street is mercifully horn-free, and you can feed yourself internationally quite well for days.
I could almost swear I was in Paris!”
( Jonathan Reynolds, New York Times – 11/16/2003)

A wonderful, rare opportunity ( first time on the market in decades) to purchase and own this top floor, sundrenched two bedroom/one bath condominium residence with N, E, &W exposures. Apt. 5C at 78 Bedford Street, aka 27 Commerce Street, is located on one of the most quintessential blocks of the West Village, Bedford street between Commerce and Barrow streets. This attractive, brick building, built in 1929, is a 5 story, 29 unit walk-up, fiscally-sound Condo with exceptionally low carrying costs.

Bring your architect and designer! The “C” line Units in 78 Bedford Street have historically undergone custom renovations that have included removing the wall between the living room and the contiguous windowed kitchen. Renovations have typically involved designing and building a spacious breakfast bar, and the installation of custom cabinetry, stone countertops and flooring, new lighting and new, contemporary full-sized appliances. The windowed bathroom will require a full renovation to include new tiled walls and floor, new lighting, fixtures and accessories. There are two sunny bedrooms, (one of which is a corner room); and each bedroom will accommodate a queen-sized bed. There are wonderful sky and bucolic neighborhood views from both of these bedrooms. Prewar details in the apartment include high ceilings, vintage hardwood flooring throughout, and original brick walls and traditional moldings.

This boutique Condominium’s amenities include a live-in superintendent, an on-site central laundry, bike storage, access to a lovely central resident courtyard, and separate storage available to residents for a nominal monthly charge.

78 Bedford Street ( The Star Condominium) is located in Prime West Village, surrounded by wonderful, well-known restaurants, great shopping, galleries and entertainment spots, and other historic attractions that Greenwich Village has to offer and is renowned for. Walking distance from The Cherry Lane Theater, Hudson River, the Meatpacking District, and the Village Vanguard among many other terrific spots! Conveniently located to NYU, Parsons, The School of Visual arts, Cardozo and New York Law School and all modes of public transportation.
