Description

Quiet privacy combined with a high end renovation makes this one bedroom residence an especially impressive home. Set in the rear of the building away from street noise, the distinctive space has both north and south exposures. An entry hallway is the access point leading past two closets and a windowed, marble tiled bath with tub. The bedroom is south facing and is big enough for a queen sized bed plus an armoire or vanity. The open kitchen boasts custom designed cabinetry, quartz composite counter tops, stainless appliances including a GE range, double door refrigerator with double drawer freezer, a dishwasher, microwave, a built in air conditioner, and ceiling fan. An oversized window in the living room allows direct afternoon southern light. This prime, well managed East Village mid-rise is located on a quiet residential side street between Second and Third Avenues. There are two elevators, three stairways, a recently renovated laundry in the basement, video intercom, bike storage, select storage lockers, and a full time live-in super. The smoke free co-op is pet friendly and is open to gifting, co-purchases, pied-a terres, and subletting.
