Nowhere downtown will you find Penthouse living that compares to Novare, an incredible Romanesque Revival-style boutique condominium originally built in 1860 as Washington Square Methodist Church. Imaginatively reinvented & stunningly transformed by Flank architects in 2006, this one-of-a-kind residence uniquely melds the charm of history with the best of contemporary. Distinctly offsetting the heavy stone facade, exquisite detailing, and awe-inspiring stained glass of the former church is a soaring 50' glass atrium and eight private residences that today comprise its ultra-modern interior.Taking full advantage of the structure's 20' vaulted ceilings and original wood timber beams, this immaculately renovated duplex is an unparalleled and rare find downtown. Boasting 3498+/-sf of highly customized interiors with three large bedrooms and two and a half baths, this home presents uncompromising quality at every turn, including hand-troweled white Venetian plastered walls, Brazilian walnut floors, a floating staircase wrapped in chrome, sleek custom closets and a state-of-the-art Crestron system.Entertain in utmost style in the light-drenched living area with a Nano glass wall system that opens onto a private 575+/-sf landscaped terrace affording a perfectly framed view of the Empire State Building. A Boffi kitchen has been deliberately thought out for the needs of the most discerning chef. The library & media rooms provide the perfect solace for relaxing with a good book or movie. Life in the heart of the Village, just half a block from the beautifully revived Washington Square Park, simply does not get better than this.
