Just 2 short flights up lie the perfect starter residence that's incredibly welcoming. This cozy well-maintained Co-Op is at the crossroads of the avant-garde East Village & Lower East Side area is an income restricted HDFC please reach out for more information on income caps.

The apartment is move-in condition with hardwood floors throughout, tall 8'.8" ceiling height that can be expanded another foot and a half, bright as the space is flooded with wonderful light from a set of 8 windows and has a new space saving, energy efficient water heater for on demand hot water.

Originally a large open space, current owner has created 2 bedrooms by putting up dividing walls that are environmentally intelligent, offering twice the amount of sound insulation for privacy and sound deadening, yet safe as they are made from recycled paper. While you'll be cocooned in silence, these walls are reasonably easy to remove if you want to redesign it to create your own Shangri-la.
