172 Delancey Street, 3-A

Beyond low maintenance - just $301 per month (as has been the case for decades!). In fact, the total monthly carrying costs, between the low maintenance and any mortgage payment, are cheaper than the neighborhood's market rate rents.

Don't miss this very special opportunity! Think you cannot afford to purchase? This is an HDFC building designed for first time buyers, especially those who think they do not make enough money to buy. The income restriction at the point of purchase is $64,872 for a single individual, $70,884 for two buyers combined. If this is you, come check out this high-ceilinged one bedroom in the heart of the Lower East Side. This bright & quiet recently renovated apartment has a flexible layout and can be opened up as a live/work loft space if so desired. Boasting six windows, French doors plus a large transom, abundant storage space and a comfortable Murphy Bed, in addition to beautiful exposed brick and gorgeous wide plank hardwood floors. Facing the back of the building, this quiet apartment is completely insulated from the hustle and bustle of busy Delancey Street. The windowed kitchen is in mint condition, with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and amazing storage space, and the windowed bathroom with a combo shower/tub also was lovingly upgraded.

Building features include a fantastic on-site super, and it is a flexible board, with unlimited subletting allowed after first year. Pets welcome! Conveniently located just three blocks from the Delancey Street F and J/M/Z trains, as well as all of this wonderful area's best restaurants, unique shops, and exciting nightlife, with the Essex Market, as well as the new Trader Joe's, Target and multiple Citibike docks just a couple of blocks away! And just across the street from the multi-billion dollar Essex Crossing complex, which includes a 14 screen movie theater, NYU school of medicine, the Market Line, and international center of photography. Classic Lower East Side living at its best!
