About This Home
179 Sullivan Street – Art Haus, West Village Repositioned as Art Haus, this 25-foot-wide Greek Revival townhouse has been transformed into a portfolio of luxury, art filled, exquisitely furnished short-term rentals plus a ground-floor commercial suite- nearly doubling its income from prior use. It is, quite simply, the best investment in the best location. For those envisioning a private residence, 179 Sullivan also offers an extraordinary single-family conversion opportunity. Encompassing more than 8,000 square feet across five levels and a cellar, Art Haus is operated today as a high-performing short-term rental model. Each residence is fully furnished, professionally managed, and income-producing, offering investors immediate entry into a proven strategy that requires minimal oversight and short lead time to convert to condos or single family. The property’s scale, design, and efficiency make it a rare find in Greenwich Village, with current returns that outperform its prior positioning and continued potential for growth. With its rare 25-foot width, soaring ceilings, and five full stories above a cellar, the building can be reimagined as a seven-level sanctuary of quiet luxury- complete with expansive entertaining rooms, multiple bedroom suites, a private garden, and a roof terrace. The result would be a distinguished West Village home of exceptional volume and presence, blending architectural pedigree with modern refinement. Architectural hallmarks- including Flemish-bond brickwork, a brownstone stoop, nine-over-nine parlor windows, and a bracketed Italianate cornice- preserve the grace of its 19th-century origins. At the same time, the building’s interiors are tailored to modern living, combining historic character with contemporary functionality. Set on one of the Village’s most intimate, tree-lined blocks and neighboring the MacDougal–Sullivan Gardens Historic District, the townhouse offers both privacy and proximity to Downtown’s most celebrated cultural and culinary icons. Whether held as a high-income short-term rental portfolio or created anew as a grand private home, Art Haus at 179 Sullivan Street is where heritage, hospitality, and opportunity converge.
