Restored Greenwich Village Townhouse Sells for $8.1 Million

A huge single-family townhouse in Greenwich Village closed earlier this week for $8.1 million, according to CORE. The home at 23 Downing Street was purchased by developer Good Property LLC in 2011 for $3.3 million, who contracted Turett Collaborative Architects to spearhead some serious gut renovations completely rebuild the house. Over a two-year period, the original house, which was marketed as “a real fixer upper,” was torn down and the new five-floor, 3,700-square-foot home was erected in its place. It has 900 square feet of exterior space, including a private garden and rooftop terrace, plus salvaged wide plank oak flooring and a bunch of other nice details. It was first listed last June for $9.95 million, and the price was dropped to $8.995 million in September.
