123 East 12th Street, 2

Rare and unbelievably beautiful, this two-story townhouse home is being offered for rental for the first time in a few years. A private entrance from the street leads one flight up a handsomely finished staircase, where the main living level of this home is more like a loft than a townhouse. With 14' ceilings, recessed lighting, and a wide open layout, the downtown energy flows! An open iron-chef kitchen includes a Subzero fridge, pro-grade Wolf range with vented hood, wine refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, stone counter tops and an artistic mosaic back splash. A huge skylight illuminates the entire large kitchen area. There is also a breakfast bar for easy entertaining. There's also a large dining area off the kitchen.

The living area is wide open and sprawling! Two south facing over-sized windows let the sunshine in. Dark wood floors and some exposed brick accents bring a warmth to this enormous space. A modern staircase leads to the second level, which has three very large bedrooms and two designer-inspired baths. There are two
master suites, one facing north and one facing south. Each has terrific closet space, high ceilings, and large windows. There is also a washer-dryer closet on the second level.

On East 12th Street, off Fourth Ave, this is a suburban sized home in the heart of the Union Square / East Village border. Private viewings by appointment only.
