100 BANK STREET, #5D

About

Ideally situated in the perennially sought-after West Village, at the highly desirable corner of Bank and Greenwich Streets, this thoughtfully reimagined ultra-high-end home presents an incredibly unique and serene offering in this pinnacle downtown locale. A recent designer gut renovation, curated masterfully by Michael K. Chen Architecture, reconfigured this property to maximize utility and recapture previously lost space. This recent reinvention has yielded a generously scaled, highly functional, and airy environment that synthesizes a bespoke modern elegance into all design aspects.

Bathed in light, with open village views, the property is entered through a welcoming gallery that intelligently combines a built-in bar and an upholstered banquette with custom dining table, creating a gracious casual entertaining and dining space. The living space is open to the kitchen and offers a wall of windows overlooking Greenwich Street with its quintessential tree-lined village cityscape. Gorgeous hardwood floors, custom automated window treatments, niche storage, recessed and designer lighting (with dimmers throughout), and lightened and subtly textured materials further benefit the overall aesthetic. 

The reconstructed kitchen, anchored by a block of richly figured Vermont marble, serves as a central focal point, integrating a breakfast bar, entertaining areas, and a generous workspace. A slide-out concealed television, seamlessly incorporated into the millwork, provides for multifunctional use. The chef’s kitchen boasts a full suite of integrated Bosch appliances, a large pantry, and an abundance of custom ash and white cabinetry. A stylish white glass backsplash and Corian countertops complete this minimalist triumph.

Two well-sized bedrooms face peaceful Bank Street; the primary offering a wall of double-depth built-out closets and a windowed ensuite bath, with a deep soaking tub and white marble tiles. The second bedroom has two doors, one that leads to the living space and one which opens to the neighboring second windowed bath, replete with a spa-like shower with premium light grey tumbled marble tile. A separate home office at the other end of the apartment can be partitioned courtesy of an oversized pocket door. No detail was overlooked and the elevated lifestyle that the space offers is unsurpassed.

This well-managed and impeccably maintained cooperative building features a live-in super, an updated laundry room, an elevator, a storage room, and a bike room. The enviable location offers a dream lifestyle with its proximity to The Hudson River Esplanade, The Highline, The Whitney Museum, and some of the best shopping and dining offerings available in the entire city. Public transportation options abound, and the prime location offers the absolute best of downtown living.
