Historically known for being a hub of bohemian life, Greenwich Village continues to be marked by its artistic air, which in turn attracts artistic residents. Bon Jovi, Meryl Streep, and Nate Berkus have all called the NYC neighborhood home. And a full-floor penthouse renovated by famed interior designer Giancarlo Valle is now for sale near Washington Square Park, ready to reel in a design-loving, discerning buyer with the price tag of $10.25 million.
“History is crucial for my work,” Valle told Elle Decor in 2020. “Design has a historical arc and I like to trace it back, whether that means through architecture, interiors, or furniture.” Valle took careful steps to ensure that the penthouse’s pre-war details, such as its original millwork, stayed intact while elevating it and adding his own touch.
Entering into the space through a private elevator, one is instantly greeted by sunlight pouring through the ceiling skylights and beautiful 10” wood planks underfoot. Moving into the open concept floor plan, the updated kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances and an island fitted with imported Italian marble.
The 3,700-square-foot penthouse is currently configured with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, but has space for three bedrooms. The primary suite shines with oversized windows and a luxe ensuite featuring imported travertine countertops and a personal dressing room. A second bathroom has also been fully revamped, accented by dark tiles and wood walls.
Graced with the vision of a world-renowned designer, this penthouse’s potential has no limits. Emily Beare of Core holds this listing, which does not come furnished.
