Step into history with this beautifully preserved Federal-style townhome at 7 Leroy Street, a rare gem glistening with tradition and charm. Built in 1830 by Jacob Romaine, this four-story red brick treasure has stood the test of time, offering an authentic glimpse into New York City's architectural heritage and boasting a coveted plaque naming it to the National Register of Historic Places. Notable for its 22' width, dormer windows and exclusive rear yard access, this landmarked property features a picturesque horsewalk located behind a wooden door that leads to a secret garden and a magical back house - 7 Leroy Street. Its facade reimagined by a Broadway stage designer in the '60s, 7 Leroy has been completely renovated by its current owner and features three cozy bedrooms (the primary with its own private terrace and en-suite bathroom), two and a half bathrooms, a private roof deck, Kitchenaid and Miele appliances, Kohler and Schlage fixtures, and its own security system. The house is equipped with split system AC, radiator heat, new wiring, plumbing, and mechanical systems, wide-plank floors, and a wood-burning fireplace. There's also a shared courtyard for bikes, relaxing and entertaining family and friends. Inside the front townhouse, the residences have been thoughtfully renovated to accommodate modern living while preserving their rich historical charm. Now configured as four private apartments, one on each floor, each unit offers a cozy retreat infused with period details, timeless appeal and, in three of the units, wood-burning fireplaces. Located in one of New York's most desirable neighborhoods, 7 Leroy Street is more than just a home - it's a proud piece of American history where Founding Fathers George Washington, John Adams and Alexander Hamilton once walked its hallowed grounds. This is the perfect opportunity for those who value architectural heritage, unique urban spaces, and the vibrancy of West Village living to turn 7 Leroy into their legacy. Schedule a private viewing of 7 Leroy Street today and explore the possibilities of making it your own.
