    A meticulously renovated four-story building located at the crossroads of West Village and Greenwich Village, two of Manhattan’s most iconic and enduringly desirable neighborhoods. Ideally situated along the vibrant corridor of West 4th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues, the Property offers 20 feet of prime frontage and immediate access to a rich tapestry of cultural, culinary, and lifestyle destinations, including Cornelia Street, Jones Street, and Washington Square Park. This is a trophy location, steeped in creative legacy and sustained by exceptional demand. Spanning approximately 4,597± gross square feet, the Property comprises seven (7) units: five (5) free-market residential apartments over two (2) well-positioned retail suites. The residential units include a spacious three-bedroom, two-bath apartment and four (4) one-bedroom, one-bath homes, each thoughtfully renovated in 2020 to condo-level standards. High-end finishes include bleached oak flooring, stainless steel appliances, marble countertops, exposed brick accents, and in-unit washer/dryers. Notably, Apartment #2 enjoys a private rear outdoor terrace, further enhancing its premium offering. Beyond its design and location, 161 West 4th Street carries a unique cultural provenance—it was the first New York City residence of legendary musician Bob Dylan, who lived in a third-floor walk-up during the early 1960s. He penned some of his earliest hits here and was photographed around the corner for the iconic “The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan” album cover. The building’s bohemian legacy still resonates today, especially in the wake of the Oscar-nominated film A Complete Unknown, further fueling interest from tenants seeking an authentic Village experience. Just steps from the Christopher Street – Sheridan Square (1) Subway and West 4th Street – Washington Square (A/B/C/D/E/F/M) Subway Station, with easy access to the PATH train, the Property enjoys unmatched connectivity across Manhattan and to New Jersey. The West Village remains a premier residential enclave, characterized by exceptional rental demand, low vacancy, and premium rent growth driven by its charm, architecture, and vibrant lifestyle offerings. With its rich historic pedigree, modernized interiors, and unparalleled location, 161 West 4th Street represents a rare blend of stability, upside, and cultural cachet —a highly compelling asset for investors seeking long-term value in Manhattan’s most treasured neighborhoods.
