170 Second Avenue

This beautifully renovated, oversized one bedroom is located at 170 Second Avenue, a striking Art Deco full-service co-op building at the corner of Eleventh Street in the East Village. The residence perfectly marries prewar charm, such as restored original parquet oak flooring, beamed ceilings and base and crown moldings, with modern upgrades and conveniences. A formal entry foyer leads to the large, bright south-facing living room that is the center of this spacious home. The recently renovated kitchen is equipped with a full suite of Miele appliances and features high-end finishes and fixtures, including custom bamboo cabinetry and a Grohe faucet. The spacious corner bedroom offers both southern and eastern exposures, a massive walk-in closet, and is pin-drop quiet. An updated, windowed bathroom is appointed with colorful Ann Sacks tiles and an original, reglazed cast-iron soaking tub. Other highlights of this lovely home are a Miele washer and dryer, through-wall air conditioning and ample closet space throughout. 170 Second Avenue is a majestic prewar jewel in the East Village with an extraordinary lobby featuring original terrazzo floors, brass chandeliers, Art Deco murals and mahogany-paneled elevators. The lobby recently underwent a full restoration, and the building is impeccably maintained by a wonderful staff including 24 hour doorman, porters, and a live-in superintendent. Features include central laundry, storage and bike rooms. It is located across the street from historic St. Mark s Church, and is near fantastic restaurants, Union Square, Astor Place, Tompkins Square Park and plentiful public transportation.
