About This Property

From the moment you step into the welcoming entry gallery, this spacious prewar home feels like a quiet retreat in the heart of Greenwich Village. Built-in bookcases and generous walls provide plenty of room for art, books, and the things that make a home feel personal.

Just beyond the gallery is an unusually large living room filled with southern light and peaceful treetop views. A window seat offers a cozy place to read, while the wood-burning fireplace creates a natural gathering spot on winter evenings. There is also ample room for a large dining table, making the space equally comfortable for everyday living and entertaining friends.

The eat-in kitchen is particularly large for the building, with room for casual meals and the daily routines of home. Both bedrooms have their own windowed bathrooms, and excellent closet space provides plenty of storage.

Hardwood floors, beamed ceilings, and original prewar details bring warmth and character throughout. With its generous rooms, sunlight, leafy views, and wood-burning fireplace, this is a comfortable and inviting Village home.

Built in 1929 and converted to cooperative ownership in 1963, 40–50 East 10th Street was designed by Helme & Corbett, the architects behind One Fifth Avenue and the Metropolitan Life North Building on Madison Square Park. The building is known for its distinctive casement windows, wood-burning fireplaces, and well-proportioned apartments.

Residents enjoy a 24-hour doorman, resident building manager, fitness center, children’s playroom, large air-conditioned laundry room, lending library, bicycle room, and private storage. Bicycle and private storage are subject to availability and an additional fee.

The building also offers two wonderful outdoor spaces: a quiet garden at lobby level and an impressive landscaped roof terrace with specimen trees, an herb garden, and a designated quiet area. Pets are welcome.

Located between University Place and Broadway, the building is close to everything that makes Greenwich Village and Union Square so appealing. The block is lined with mid-century modern furniture galleries and is home to the much-loved Il Cantinori restaurant. Excellent dining, shopping, multiple subway lines, and the Union Square Greenmarket are all nearby, and there is a parking garage next door.

The cooperative permits up to 60% financing. A 3% flip tax is payable by the seller. Please call to schedule a private viewing.
