This stunning apartment is the definition of New York City glam – and the location is just as enviable as the swanky interiors. Set in Greenwich Village's exclusive Gold Coast, this home is situated on one of the most beautiful streets in the city. Here, tree-lined streets are bordered with stately pre-war buildings, blooming flowers come springtime and charming antique shops – yet fine-dining restaurants, cute cafes and the 8th Street subway are just steps away. For a place in the heart of Manhattan, you'll find this flat is surprisingly quiet – and that's all the more reason to loll about at home after a busy day exploring. Built in 1870 by famed architect James Renwick (the designer behind St Patrick's Cathedral), it should come as no surprise that traditional features await around every corner. Step inside and you'll be enchanted by the exquisite details and designer touches – we're talking exposed brick, crown moulding, solid oak herringbone flooring and a hand-sculpted Noto chandelier hanging proudly from the Venetian-plaster ceiling. Pour yourself a glass of wine and stretch out on the deep blue sofa, admiring the carefully curated art collection. When you grow peckish, the glossy kitchen is stocked with... top-of-the-line appliances and everything you need to whip up a meal – or host a lavish dinner party instead, using ingredients picked up from the world-famous Union Square market a ten-minute walk away. Whether you're working from home at the Louis XV writing desk, taking a relaxing soak in the sumptuous clawfoot tub or snuggling up in front of the crackling fire, this home is truly a one-of-a-kind stay in the Big Apple.
