This turn-of-the-century brick and stone mansion measures 26 feet wide, is built 80 feet on a 103-foot lot, and is graced by a 20-foot private garden with an adjoining side garden- a remarkable offering in the heart of Greenwich Village. With the possibility of 8 bedrooms, 7.5 baths, and formal entertaining spaces-including a vast great room, dining room, parlor, and bar- this home can accommodate virtually any interior need. Dramatic proportions, beautiful natural light, and protected landmark views define the residence. The home enjoys north, south, and rare east exposures, with sun-filled southern light preserved by three protected townhouses to the south. Ceiling heights soar up to 12 feet, reinforcing the home's grand scale and sense of volume throughout. Additional features include fully updated mechanical, plumbing, electrical, and gas systems; a recently serviced Otis elevator; and a pristine cellar with over six-foot ceiling height. Seven original wood-burning fireplaces remain intact throughout, with central air conditioning recently serviced across the home. Modern enhancements include Thermador refrigerator drawers, Kohler fixtures, Lutron lighting, custom window treatments, and designer wall coverings. The cellar level accommodates laundry, storage, and townhouse mechanicals. Garden Level & Entertaining Floors At the heart of the home is a spectacular 30-foot kitchen opening directly to the private garden, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor experience. The kitchen was designed by Christopher Peacock, whose team paired natural, stain-resistant dark granite with rich espresso-stained cabinetry, accented by warm gold-brass hardware. A full suite of brand-new Thermador appliances- including a professional induction range, smart wall oven, paneled refrigerator and freezer, wine column, dishwasher, and a built-in plumbed coffee system- integrates seamlessly into the custom millwork. The brick-paved garden and side yard are framed by mature plantings, including a 50-foot blooming magnolia. Interior designer, Jamie Drake contributed a bespoke mirror and stone installation and integrated seating along the garden wall- perfectly suited for al fresco dining. Above this, the parlor & entertaining floor unfolds with extraordinary elegance: a 26-foot-wide sitting room with three window bays overlooking West 12th Street, a formal dining room, and a breathtaking conservatory-style great room, each crowned by 12-foot ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace. Upper Floors for Flexible Single-Family Living The upper levels have been thoughtfully conceived to function as part of one home, offering exceptional flexibility for primary living, guest accommodations, creative studios, wellness spaces, or even private retreats. The third floor offers generous ceiling heights, two wood-burning fireplaces, two full baths, and flexible volume allowing for up to four bedrooms, with infrastructure in place for a wet bar, lounge, or additional bathroom. The proposed fourth floor primary suite enjoys open exposures, protected views, and a 12x15 private terrace, complemented by 1.5 baths including a spa-like bath with an oversized glass-enclosed shower, gold fixtures, and a smart Kohler toilet. Views extend across the neighboring Church of the Village, and surrounding private art collections, creating a rare sense of privacy and calm. Crowning the home, the top floor is conceived as a serene retreat with soaring ceilings and dramatic volume. The space is fully wrapped in cork- including windowsills and custom built-in shelving- creating exceptional acoustic softness. A wood-burning fireplace with a Vatican-style surround anchors the room, while glass-block partitions subtly separate a wet bar finished in sleek Green custom cabinetry. Original triple-bay steel casement windows frame cinematic Village views, and a 15' 22' south-facing terrace completes this peaceful aerie above the city. An architecturally unified Gold Coast townhouse of rare scale, 20 West 12th Street offers a fully realized single-family vision in the heart of Greenwich Village. ## Property Details - **Property Type**: Single Family Residence - **Beds**: 8 - **Total Baths**: 9 - **Rooms**: 17 - **Sqft**: 7,227 sqft - **Stories**: 5 - **Year Built**: 1900 - **Price per Sqft**: $2,145 - **Monthly Taxes**: $9,356 / mo - **Listed On**: Oct 11, 2024 - **Days on Market**: 706 Days ### Residence Features - Central Air - Washer Hookup - In Unit - Garden - Juliet Balcony - Private Outdoor Space Over 60 Sqft - High Ceilings - Smoke Free - Dishwasher - Washer Dryer Allowed ## Estimated Monthly Payment **$87,732 / month**, assuming a 20% down payment ($3,100,000), a 6.5% interest rate and a 30-year term.

They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure. Sales data through August 2026. Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier.

We calculated the tax for those years using the prior year’s rate, so treat them as an estimate rather than a figure the City has adopted. Every rate without the Estimated marker is the published one. Tax Assessment is the assessed value on the City’s roll, and it is the figure other listing sites publish. It is not what the bill is calculated on. New York phases assessment changes in gradually for some tax classes, so the City bills the Billable Value shown beside it, less any exemption the owner holds. It usually trails the assessment, and it can sit above it for a few years after an assessment falls. Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 1005750042. Assessed and billable values are determined by the City for tax purposes and are not an appraisal or an estimate of market value. Tax classes and rates are set annually and can change.
