The Charlton House is a full-service postwar cooperative on the Sixth Avenue corner of Charlton Street, in Hudson Square — the once-industrial pocket between SoHo and the West Village that has become one of downtown's most active commercial districts, anchored by Google's New York campus and Disney's headquarters nearby. The building gives owners a doorman, a live-in resident manager, an on-site full-service parking garage, and a planted common garden, at a cooperative price basis that undercuts the converted lofts and condominiums on the surrounding streets.
Built in 1966 and converted to a cooperative around 1980–1981, the building is a 17-story red-brick tower of 175 apartments — substantial scale that supports a deep service staff and the building's amenity program. Many apartments have private terraces, a meaningful feature for a postwar tower.
The setting is the draw: the Charlton-King-Vandam Historic District, two blocks of preserved Federal and Greek Revival row houses, sits on the adjacent blocks, so residents have a low-rise, historic streetscape at their doorstep while living in a full-service elevator building.
Architecture and unit composition
The Charlton House is a 17-story red-brick high-rise of 175 residential units. The architecture is straightforward postwar — the appeal is in the operations, the garage, the common garden, and the apartments themselves, many of which carry private terraces. The apartment mix runs from one-bedrooms through larger two- and three-bedroom layouts. In-unit washer/dryer installations are permitted with board approval.
Building operations
The building operates as a full-service cooperative with a 24-hour doorman, a live-in resident manager, an on-site full-service parking garage, a planted first-floor common garden, bike storage, and a large attended laundry room. The garage and live-in management are the practical anchors of daily life here.
As with any cooperative, buyers should review the building's financial statements, the most recent reserve study, board minutes, the maintenance history, and any planned assessments or capital projects during due diligence. The board's financing and any flip-tax policies are variable and should be confirmed at offer stage. Note that this building requires primary residence and does not permit subletting — confirm both with management before you transact.
Recent sales
As a cooperative, The Charlton House prices on a per-room and per-share basis rather than per square foot. Recent recorded sales have run in the neighborhood of $1,500 per square foot when normalized, with one-bedrooms in the roughly $1.0–1.5 million range and larger two- and three-bedroom apartments higher. Maintenance, room count, exposure, the presence of a private terrace, and renovation level drive most of the spread between comparable units. Specific figures should be confirmed against current recorded transfers at offer stage.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00506-0027) and verified listing data. Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage on co-ops is not officially recorded, figures shown are approximate.
What to know if you’re buying
This is a primary-residence co-op. Pieds-à-terre are not permitted and subletting is not allowed — this building is for owner-occupants. Confirm the current board rules at offer stage.
The garage and terraces are the value adds. An on-site full-service garage and private-terrace apartments are both scarce at this price point. If either is part of your plan, prioritize accordingly and confirm garage availability with management.
Hudson Square is changing fast. The commercial build-out around the building — major corporate campuses and new retail — has reshaped the neighborhood; weigh that as a long-term value driver.
Run the co-op math. Factor maintenance and any assessments into your monthly carry, and run the purchase through the Buyer Closing Cost Calculator.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with full-service operations and the garage. The 24-hour doorman, live-in resident manager, on-site garage, and common garden are the differentiators against the lighter-service lofts nearby.
Target the owner-occupant buyer. Because the building requires primary residence, your buyer pool is end-users — position the apartment accordingly.
Price by room, terrace, and condition. Comparable co-op sales here turn on room count, maintenance, private outdoor space, and renovation level.
