84 Jane Street is a spectacular 6000' contemporary mansion, given a transformation from top to bottom by Jonathan Schloss Architects, to convey brilliant light and luxuriant space. On a classic cobblestone street of West Village townhouses, this 24' wide property was originally constructed in 1859, with an Italianate brick and true brownstone fa ade, carefully and beautifully restored to its original appearance, complete with its stone stoop. The interior is completely reconstructed with muscular steel framing and a curtain wall of glass in the rear, giving bright southern light on every floor, including the excavated basement. From the double height entryway, one sees a unified vision through the use of 135-year old, old growth, reclaimed walnut 14-18"-wide plank floors, Venetian plaster walls and ceilings, large Onondaga limestone panels, and blackened steel and bronze details. The effect is dramatic. The Parlor floor has a gorgeous chef's kitchen with walnut cabinetry between the large dining area and the harmonious living room, complete with gas fireplace. A steel bridge was constructed to lead from the living room directly to the entertaining garden, surrounded by laurel shrubs and hornbeam trees, a perfect outdoor respite. The second floor has a dramatic and large bedroom facing onto the garden, with its own blackened steel fireplace, and ensuite bath. There is traditional wood paneled library with a restored marble fireplace mantle to the front which also doubles as a bedroom, with a cleverly hidden en suite bath. The third floor has two more bedrooms, each with their own glass tiled bathrooms, as well as a spacious back terrace facing South. A glass and steel additional floor was added which serves as a primary suite, flooded with light and clad in light colors, including floors of fumed European Larch, and well considered ample storage cabinets. The lower level has the sixth en suite bedroom, and a large recreation room with fireplace, facing south to the lower level of the garden. Wine storage, laundry and various mechanical areas complete the floor. There is a limestone clad elevator reaching all floors, a blackened steel and walnut stair with glass guardrails, and museum quality lighting throughout. There is even a concealed art hanging system to minimize damage to the venetian plaster. The plumbing, sound system, electrical system, water filtration are all made to the highest standards
