407 E 12TH Street #1RNE

"Connection to nature" is the theme of this 1,120 ft (apx.), 2-bed, 2-bath duplex condo home located in NYC's East Village. You are immediately drawn to the array of greenery and the sun-rays weaving through the tree leaves, casting a beautiful arrangement of light onto the renovated 730 ft (apx.) private garden. The wall-to-ceiling, glass-encased solarium, brings the garden indoors. Use as a reading nook or as an office space- this multi-functional space is deal for quiet meditation and inspiration. The walnut-stained bamboo floors create a seamless transition from solarium to dining area, living room and open kitchen (the "heart of the home"). At dusk, the lovely visual effect of the luminescence from the garden lends to relaxed living or casual entertaining. At the end of the day, retire to the Upper Level, where the quiet north-exposure overlooking the home's garden, ensures a restful sleep environment and the added bonus of waking up to rustling trees. Efficiency and functionality are also key in this home. The kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances, plentiful cabinets, granite counter-tops and matching island with added storage space. All the closets in this home, including approximately 50 ft under-stair storage have been fully built-out in order to maximize space. All of this, in addition to shared storage space in the building, a full-time superintendent (M-F) and a very hands-on Managing Agent. ...and when you are ready to trade in your combined total of approximately 1,850 ft home & garden oasis for a day out & about the concrete jungle of NYC- you have the unique flavor of the East Village just outside of your door.
