Built in 1897, the property was home to industrialist and art collector Armand Hammer in the 1920s.  Today it retains its original beauty more than most.  A painstaking renovation by renowned architectural firm Fairfax &#038; Sammons has not only integrated and updated homes for modern living, but has given deserved attention to every inch of tiny townhouses\u2014complete with a charming patio and garden.  The property is asking for $7,500,000.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-235897 pib-hover-img\" src=\"https:\/\/imgs.6sqft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/11012148\/183-185-West-4th-Street-living-room-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/imgs.6sqft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/11012148\/183-185-West-4th-Street-living-room-2.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/imgs.6sqft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/11012148\/183-185-West-4th-Street-living-room-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/imgs.6sqft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/11012148\/183-185-West-4th-Street-living-room-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/imgs.6sqft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/11012148\/183-185-West-4th-Street-living-room-2-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/imgs.6sqft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/11012148\/183-185-West-4th-Street-living-room-2-440x293.jpg 440w, https:\/\/imgs.6sqft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/11012148\/183-185-West-4th-Street-living-room-2-90x60.jpg 90w, https:\/\/imgs.6sqft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/11012148\/183-185-West-4th-Street-living-room-2-280x187.jpg 280w, https:\/\/imgs.6sqft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/11012148\/183-185-West-4th-Street-living-room-2-679x453.jpg 679w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" data-pin-url=\"https:\/\/www.6sqft.com\/for-7-5m-history-architecture-and-smart-design-fill-a-compact-1897-urban-cottage-in-the-village\/\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The proportion is everything from the first glimpse of the space, which appears once larger inside than one might imagine from its attractive facade.
