In contrast to its historic, red-brick brownstone surroundings, the Glass Townhouse is a posh and contemporary condominium at 163 Charles Street, steps away from the Hudson River at the western edge of one of New York City's most renowned neighborhoods, the West Village. Squeezed between its neighbors, the Glass Townhouse is hardly noticeable, ideal for those seeking a more private Manhattan life, although its façade comprised of balconies jutting out at different places is certainly a stand out in this part of town. Cobblestone alleys and quiet streets sprinkled with cafes and boutiques accurately summarize life in the West Village, and it's no winder that this is one of Manhattan's most desirable places to live. Ultra-modern in design, each condo for sale at the Glass Townhouse features an open floor plan complemented by high ceilings and full-length windows, letting in natural light and providing excellent views down from 163 Charles Street to the Hudson River waterfront, only amplified by deep and spacious terraces. Kitchens are an eclectic mix of dark granite, white lacquer, and stainless steel, filled with top-of-the-line appliances and softly accented through the use of indirect and recessed lighting. In keeping with its modern theme, the Glass Townhouse integrates technology with built-in speaker systems and a remote-controlled fireplace and shades. Intricate tiling and wood components fuse together for a calming bathroom that feels miles away from hectic Manhattan. Despite being a boutique condominium, the Glass Townhouse does offer its residents a number of amenities. Residents have access to a wine cellar and yoga studio, both great for relaxation. The Glass Townhouse's best feature, however, is its location. At 163 Charles Street, the West Village's restaurants, shops, galleries, and other attractions are all only blocks away, as is the recently redone Hudson River Waterfront with landscaped piers and a new bike path. A small and inviting modern condominium in the West Village? The Glass Townhouse is too good to pass up.
