## Property Overview

This extraordinary West Village townhouse has it all. Superb original architectural detail is found throughout the flexible layout, boasting impressive scale with high ceilings, enlivened by a dramatic double-height skylit artist’s studio. The 20-foot-wide home spans 5,344 interior square feet above-grade, with a 980 square foot cellar and a total of 1,695 square feet of outdoor space. Exterior details of the light-flooded, five-story townhouse include a handsome brick facade trimmed in brownstone and a stoop adorned with elegant ironwork. This exceptional historic townhouse is one of a pair built in 1853 by Linus Scudder, a brick mason and well-known builder in Greenwich Village in the mid-19th century and was home to the family of noted philanthropist and civic leader John P. Faure until 1920. In 1927, a two-story artist’s studio with a vast sloping skylight was added on the fourth floor. At this time, the windows on the third floor were extended, and an attractive picture window was installed, enhancing the light and views of the parlor level. Dappled in natural sunlight, the townhouse boasts 7 wood-burning fireplaces, many with original 19th-century marble mantelpieces.

The house is well-situated, located mid-block overlooking the neighboring townhouses and gardens on a quintessential tree-lined West Village block. West 11th Street, known for its pleasing scale and for many landmark townhouse sales, is one of the most sought-after within the boundaries of the Greenwich Village Historic District, designated on April 29, 1969. The 95-foot deep lot is surrounded by a lush oasis of mature trees, and features a serene south garden and a large roof deck with open southern and western exposures.

238 West 11th Street represents the rare opportunity to own an exceptional historic home located on one of the most charming of the quiet residential streets in all the West Village.

## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

238 West 11th Street has one recorded sale since September 2021, the most recent for $5,925,000 in August 2022. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Sold Price | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 3 (Apartment) | $5,925,000 | August 17, 2022 | City record |

Every row is a recorded transaction, including ancillary spaces such as storage and staff rooms where they were sold separately. Those are excluded from the benchmark below.

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable house sales in West Village is $9,925,000, based on 32 sales between December 2021 and August 2026. This home is asking $15,000,000, $5,075,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $8,037,500 and $12,812,500.

- **Median closed price**: $9,925,000
- **Middle half**: $8,037,500 – $12,812,500
- **Based on**: 32 house sales in West Village
- **Period**: December 2021 – August 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $2,543/ft²

Across the 31 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 94.5% of what it originally asked. 77% of them closed below the original ask.

A house is not part of a building of comparable apartments, so this benchmark is drawn from house sales across West Village. Apartment sales are excluded from it entirely.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 94.5% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 77% of 31 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 57 days (about 8 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 56 days (about 8 weeks)

Across the 31 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 94.5% of what it originally asked. 77% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 57 days (about 8 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 27 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 56 days (about 8 weeks), based on the 27 with both dates recorded.

These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure.

Based on 32 house sales in West Village, December 2021 – August 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

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. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.

The City has not published the official FY2026/27 and FY2025/26 tax rates yet. 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.

Where an abatement applies, Property Tax is the amount owed after it. Abatements are granted to the property and do not necessarily transfer to a new owner.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 1006130016. 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.
