From the original listing · StreetEasyShow

West Village living without the West Village price tag!

This charming, basement-level studio comes with everything you need to confidently tell your friends that you get to live in the West Village without breaking the bank. They're going to be so jealous.

Through-wall a/c, space for a full- or queen-size bed and a small dining setup, and your very own shower...for showering.

Located close to legendary restaurants like Via Carota, Buvette, and Canto, so you'll never want for excellent food.

With convenient access to not only the Christopher Street 1 train, but also the PATH, you can add your Hoboken friends to the list of people you'll make jealous with your address on one of Manhattan's most desirable streets.

Come see for yourself! Apartments in the West Village don't last long...
