108 Waverly Place #1

108 Waverly Place, in Greenwich Village, has been home to musicians, artists, playwrights and authors, and flourished in the 1950's with jazz greats jamming in apt #1 at Marshall Stearns' Institute of Jazz Studies. First an 1826 Federal townhouse, then a boarding house in 1890, converted in 1906 to a carriage house stable with the facade clad in castle-like carved stone, and, finally, restored to a residence in 1927 with a leaded glass window replacing upper stable doors. Apartment #1, available for lease, is an 1,800 sf loft-like space with two massive rooms, soaring ceilings, skylights, a working fireplace and a private garden with French doors. The great rooms are separated by a galley kitchen on one side and a hall and foyer on the other. This hall has a Miele washer dryer laundry closet, full bath and half bath and a staircase to the upper level bonus room with a skylight and window overlooking the great room. Please reach out for an appointment to see this unique, inspiring space.
