A Historic School Reimagined as a Luxury Condo in the heart of Greenwich Village - 215 Sullivan Street #4A

A rare offering of architectural distinction and contemporary sophistication, this extraordinary 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom residence spans 3,254 square feet and occupies a coveted position within one of Greenwich Village's most storied landmarks, a  39-foot-wide townhome originally built in 1892 as the Children's Aid Society School, designed by Calvert Vaux, co-creator of Central Park.

Meticulously transformed by Rawlings Architects and acclaimed interior designer TC Chou, the residence masterfully blends historic charm with refined modern living. A private elevator opens directly into the home, where four exposures bathe the interiors in natural light, highlighting 11-foot ceilings, five-inch-wide rift-sawn white oak floors, and custom millwork throughout.

The expansive corner Great Room, with south and west exposures, is anchored by a gas fireplace and a handblown glass pendant by Lindsey Adelman Studio, an inspired setting for elevated entertaining. A formal dining area beneath an A. Rudin chandelier flows into a breakfast nook, and a chef's kitchen by Molteni&C, featuring light elm cabinetry, Calacatta Gold marble countertops and backsplash, dual Franke sinks, Dornbracht fixtures, a pot filler, and a full suite of integrated Miele appliances, including oven, speed oven, espresso machine, dual dishwashers and a 102-bottle wine cooler.

The serene, south-facing primary suite overlooks the tree-lined landscaped courtyard, offering complete privacy. A wall of custom closets and a built-in, windowed vanity with a bespoke pull out chair provide thoughtful storage and luxury touches. 

The spa-inspired en-suite bath is clad in Thassos and Carrera marble, and features Lefroy Brooks fixtures, a Victoria + Albert soaking tub, double wenge wood vanity, glass-enclosed rain shower, and Toto smart toilet. 

Two additional south-facing bedrooms, each include generous closets, and en-suite bathrooms with Bleu-de-Savoie stone, Carrera marble, Lefroy Brook fixtures and Toto smart toilets, ideal for family or guests. A fourth bedroom, currently configured as a home office, includes two closets and enjoys access to a full bathroom finished to the same luxurious standard. A powder room clad in Wallace Creek vein-cut stone completes the layout. 

Additional features include a utility room with a vented LG washer/dryer and a built-in Sonos sound system throughout.

215 Sullivan Street's restored Dutch-inspired facade, with its stepped gables and original fenestration, celebrates its 19th-century heritage while integrating contemporary design seamlessly. Residents enter through a serene, landscaped courtyard and garden-view lobby, a rare urban oasis in the heart of Manhattan.
