555 Hudson Street – Rare West Village Townhouse with Historic Legacy
Welcome to 555 Hudson Street, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a landmarked
townhouse steeped in New York City history. Ideally positioned on one of the West Village's
most picturesque blocks, this exceptional home is celebrated as the longtime residence of
renowned urbanist Jane Jacobs, whose groundbreaking work helped shape the fabric of modern
city life.
Built in 1901 and impeccably maintained, this four-story townhouse is a rare blend of historical
integrity and modern potential. With its classic red brick façade, timeless architectural details,
and landmark designation, 555 Hudson Street stands as a proud testament to the character and
soul of the West Village. Inside, the home is equally captivating.
The garden level features a versatile commercial storefront that has housed everything from a
beloved children's bookstore to a glass artisan's studio - now ready to be reimagined for retail,
office, or creative use. This level also provides access to an expansive private garden, offering
a peaceful escape from the city's vibrant pace.
The residential suite, spanning the upper two floors, is flooded with natural light and radiates
charm. The main floor includes a sun-drenched great room, cozy dining area, updated kitchen,
and a powder room - ideal for modern living or entertaining.
On the top floor, two well-proportioned bedrooms and a full bathroom open onto a lush, private
terrace overlooking the garden, creating a serene, indoor-outdoor sanctuary rarely found in
Manhattan.
The basement level offers ample storage, another powder room, and a washer/dryer for added
convenience.
With 1,652 square feet of unused FAR, the property also presents a rare opportunity to expand
upward, allowing you to enhance the living space while honoring the home's architectural
Heritage.
Beyond its doors, the West Village awaits with an unmatched blend of charm and convenience
-cobblestone streets, tree-lined blocks, boutique shops, acclaimed restaurants, and the
sweeping waterfront trails of Hudson River Park are all just steps away. Transportation is
effortless with the 1 train at Christopher Street and multiple express/subway lines at West 4th
Street nearby.
Whether you're drawn by its historic pedigree, its distinctive charm, or its rare potential, 555
Hudson Street is more than a home. It's a legacy property in one of Manhattan's most coveted
Neighborhoods.
This is your chance to own a true piece of New York history.
