Located on a tree lined block in Greenwich Village, that is part of the historically significant Charlton-King-Vandam landmarked district. 29 Vandam Street is part of a long row of townhouses all built within a few years of one another. While the houses on the row differ from one another slightly, all were, and remain to this day 190 years later, handsome Flemish bond brick with single-doored entrances featuring leaded sidelights and transoms, high ceilings, dormers, and artistic iron grillwork.Such harmony in the streetscape is rare indeed and the houses are recognized as exceptional examples of federal architecture in New York. Bathed in sunlight, this single-family house has exceptional charm and inherent beauty. Built in 1834 in the late Federal style, the home has been thoughtfully restored by preservationists and the many period details give the house a quiet and distinguished elegance. This home offers exceptional parlor rooms, four to five bedrooms, three baths, and a large kitchen overlooking an unusually deep 60-foot garden filled with a mature magnolia, rare roses, azaleas and ferns. There are wonderful wide pine floorboards, wood burning fireplaces with original marble mantels, lovely wood and plaster moldings and ceiling medallions throughout the house. A treasured enclave and home to many brilliant luminaries and artistic, social, civil and cultural movements. James Agee, Hilton Als, Aaron Copeland, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Robert Morgenthau, Leontyne Price, Patti Smith, Susan Sontag, Paul Taylor and many more have called this neighborhood home. Long considered the South Village's best kept secret, Charlton-King-Vandam Historic District has now been discovered and is much coveted especially since it is perfectly balanced between the Village, SoHo, and Hudson River Park. The history and integrity of this house remain as a respite and sanctuary.Please note that while the house enjoys a splendidly bright 60-foot landscape garden, a significant extension maybe added to the house with city approvals.
