Introducing Residence 5A at 41 Jane Street – a rare and romantic prewar jewel nestled on one of the most iconic and beloved blocks in all of New York City. Set within a distinguished five-story cooperative, this luminous one-bedroom home pairs old-world charm with everyday comfort, offering a dreamy perch above the storied, tree-lined stretch of Jane Street—a block so rich in literary and architectural history, it has long captured the imagination of artists, writers, and tastemakers alike.
Built in 1915 and once known as “Author’s Row,” Jane Street remains one of the most enchanting corners of the West Village, lined with cobblestones, gaslights, and historic townhouses that whisper of another time. With its serene, residential feel and proximity to some of the city’s finest cafes, boutiques, and riverside parks, it’s no wonder this block is considered among the most coveted in the entire city.
At the top of 41 Jane Street, Residence 5A greets you with soaring ceilings over 10 feet, warm hardwood floors, and a graceful, sun-flooded layout. The heart of the home is a soulful living room where exposed brick walls and wood-beamed ceilings frame a working wood-burning fireplace—an irresistible setting for cozy evenings and quiet mornings alike. Through oversized windows, leafy views of the Jane Street Garden offer a rare and romantic backdrop. Beautifully landscaped and meticulously maintained, the garden is private and highly exclusive— reserved for the select few residents of Jane Street fortunate enough to hold one of its coveted keys, granted with ownership of 5A.
The windowed, eat-in kitchen is thoughtfully designed with soft sage-green granite countertops, custom wood and frosted glass cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a spacious breakfast bar that houses a wine fridge, invites conversation, connection, and everyday gathering. A windowed bathroom with a glass-paneled, rain shower adds a sense of ease and light. The bedroom is both spacious and serene, with abundant natural light and a large walk-in closet. Additional deep closets in the foyer offer rare storage that enhances the apartment’s livability without compromising its charm.
41 Jane is an intimate, well-maintained co-op offering laundry and personal storage available to rent (waitlist). But it’s the sense of place—of history, beauty, and enduring romance—that truly defines this home.
Located in the heart of the West Village, where cobblestone streets meet independent bookstores, European-style cafes, and waterfront strolls along the Hudson, Residence 5A is a love letter to classic New York living. A quiet escape. A charming refuge. A piece of the Village that feels like it’s always been yours. Please see the alternative floor plan should one decide to purchase 5B and combine the studio 5B, and the gracious garden facing one bedroom 5A.
