Description
Charismatic, loft-like one bedroom, creatively and pristinely renovated with fine attention to detail, delightfully situated on the second floor of a boutique building in the heart of the vibrant East Village. Brimming with character and personality, and offering a 31’ long great room, the residence is completely turn-key and adorned with top-tier finishes and fixtures.
Host large dinner parties in the expansive dining and living area which is delightfully accented by an abundance of exposed brick, recessed lighting, multiple closets, and double-paned windows or curl up with a book beside the delectable decorative fireplace. The open, chef’s kitchen boasts an enviable appliance suite which includes a Bosch dishwasher and refrigerator with an ice maker, and Haier range, an abundance of custom cabinetry, and a delectable farmhouse sink. A queen-sized bedroom offers another decorative fireplace and additional closet space and the stunning en-suite bathroom is clad in Avillano marble and striking Zellige green tiles with a rainfall, steam shower and ravishing brass fixtures imported from Morocco.
The entire apartment was thoughtfully and comprehensively gut-renovated in 2020. All finishes and fixtures were meticulously selected, all hardwood flooring refinished, new electrical was run (new panel, wiring, etc), and all new plumbing was installed throughout—every inch was done with care and for personal enjoyment, not for a quick flip.
Situated mid-block on a low-traffic street in the storied, fashionable, and ever-eclectic East Village, this boutique, self-managed co-op has a simple board approval process and low carrying costs. It is pet-friendly and allows subletting after two years of ownership. Pied-a-terre, gifting, co-purchasing, and guarantors are all case-by-case. The East Village—Manhattan’s most lively and authentic neighborhood which truly defines downtown living—is home to much of the best dining, outdoor cafes, live music, and nightlife the city has to offer, is steps to the Bowery, Greenwich Village, Lower East Side and Union Square, and is loaded with unique shops, artisanal markets, Greenmarkets, an abundance of transportation, and the list goes on.
