Description

RENOVATED EAST VILLAGE 1-BED AT THE INTERSECTION OF NOHO, NOLITA, AND LES

Experience East Village charm in this architect designed-and-renovated one-bedroom apartment, boasting impressive 9.4-foot ceilings, on a quiet, tree-lined block. Bathed in reflective afternoon light, the serene living space seamlessly flows into an open-concept kitchen and dining area. Designer touches extend to a separate bedroom and a stylish bathroom, discreetly located behind a sleek sliding oak door. Whether you're seeking a forever home or an ideal pied- -terre, this enchanting co-op is a must-see.

Nestled at the intersection of four vibrant neighborhoods, this prime East Village location offers the best of New York City living. Just a five-minute stroll to Noho and Nolita-where you'll find Whole Foods along the way-and mere steps from the Lower East Side across Houston Street, you'll enjoy an abundance of trendy shops, restaurants, and cultural hotspots. Despite the lively surroundings, this stretch of East 1st Street is known for its tranquility and green spaces. First Street Green Cultural Park and First Park are on the block, while Sara D. Roosevelt Park is across the way. For more greenery, Tompkins Square Park is a short walk north, with community gardens sprinkled throughout the area. Plus, with the F train just steps away, you can easily access Midtown, Flatiron, the West Village, and beyond to DUMBO, Cobble Hill, and Carroll Gardens-no transfers needed. Citibikes, JMZ, and 6 trains are also conveniently located.

Apartment 4C faces the rear of the building and is pin-drop quiet. The home has been thoughtfully designed for maximum storage and efficiency, blending minimalist principles with pre-war detail. Custom shelving, cabinetry, and drawers harmonize with oak doors and window frames, creating a cohesive look throughout. The open kitchen is equipped with ample cupboard space, a gas oven and range, stone composite countertops, a full-sized stainless steel refrigerator, and porcelain tile backsplash. The windowed bathroom marries classic charm and modern functionality with a vintage recessed mirror, black-and-white floor tiles, subway tiles, and a glass-enclosed cast-iron tub, complemented by a contemporary pedestal sink and generous wooden shelving. Additional highlights include five oversized windows, raised door frames, whitewashed exposed brick, and hardwood plank oak flooring throughout the home.

54 East 1st Street is a meticulously managed boutique co-op with flexible policies, welcoming dishwashers and in-unit washer/dryers with board approval. The community is pet-friendly and permits pied-a-terres, co-purchasers, guarantors, and cash gifts on a case-by-case basis. Subleasing is allowed after an initial ownership period. Recent and current major capital improvements enhance the building, including energy systems, roof, and boiler updates.

The seller is offering to cover the current assessment at closing, ensuring that the buyer of 54 East 1st Street secures a stunning home in a freshly updated building, all with incredibly low monthly payments. Don't miss out on this exceptional opportunity.
