249 Eldridge Street #16

Perfectly positioned in the unofficial heart of the Lower East Side, this one-bedroom, one-bathroom pre-war co-op seamlessly blends classic New York character with timeless charm, all just moments from vibrant Michelin-starred dining experiences and some of the city’s most celebrated nightlife. Accessed through a semi-private hallway, Unit 16 sits high above Houston. The large windows of the bright, open living and dining area offer amazing morning light while framing picturesque, tree-lined views that include the iconic Empire State and Chrysler Buildings, which shimmer at night. The cozy bedroom offers a peaceful retreat, quietly tucked away from the street for restful evenings. The windowed bathroom combines vintage appeal with modern convenience, featuring a classic clawfoot soaking tub and the rare luxury of in-unit laundry. High-ceilinged throughout, the kitchen is equipped with ceiling-height, glass-fronted cabinetry and essential appliances, including a dishwasher and gas range. Built-in cabinetry and bookcases offer smart storage throughout the unit, and additional lower-level storage lockers are available for $45/month. Pets are allowed upon approval. The building is Pied-à-Terre friendly, and subletting is permitted without restrictions after 2 years of new-owner occupancy. A true Lower East Side gem, this residence offers both charm and convenience in one of Manhattan’s most dynamic neighborhoods.
