Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Brown Harris Stevens Residential Sales LLC.
The terrace is the feature to start with at 101 West 12th Street. The listing describes it as a perch for wide open views, and the apartment's South and West panorama reaches over the Greenwich Village Historic District and past the Hudson River, about 0.7 miles to the west. Breakfast and sunsets are the uses the listing has in mind, and that's a good way to think about a space like this.
The apartment has windows in every room, and the bedroom faces west. Based on open-horizon sun geometry, a south-facing window gets about 8.5 hours of direct sun on the winter solstice, from 7:41 AM to 4:07 PM, and a west-facing window gets about 7 hours on the summer solstice, from 1:11 PM to 8:07 PM. Nearby buildings can block that light. The listing counts six closets, three of them in the bedroom, plus built-in storage throughout, which leaves room for a king-sized bed and furniture.
Lighting aside, the kitchen deserves a look. It has two windows and can be opened to the living room, so you can cook and still stay part of the room. It has a dishwasher, and the bathroom has been updated with a walk-in shower and a window. Central air is in the unit.
The building dates from 1961 and has six stories and 82 units. It offers an elevator, a concierge, a newly upgraded roof deck, a bike room, laundry, and garage parking, and pets are allowed. The 6 Av station is about 3 minutes on foot, with the 1, 2, 3, F, L and M trains, and W 4 St-Wash Sq is about 8 minutes away. Washington Square Park is about 7 minutes on foot, and Dainobu supermarket is about 1 minute away.
On the co-op side, the board's financing and subletting rules are worth reviewing with your attorney before you commit.
