Property Description for 217 Second Ave, PH
Rare full floor PH condo flies just under the radar and way above the competition. This one of a kind pad is rich with the patina of old New York with original rustic wide plank pine floors, two marble framed wood burning fireplaces, etched glass pocket doors and vintage oak medicine cabinets with a lovingly worn marble sink. Its old world character is perfectly complemented by the industrial edge of a commercial grade chef's kitchen, crowned brilliantly by a luminous skylight. The stamped steel spiral staircase leads to a beautifully planted rooftop sanctuary resplendent with mature plantings and a curated vegetable garden. Apartment features include two modern baths, in unit washer/dryer, central air and a large private storage unit. This intimate well run townhouse condo is in the heart of the vibrant East Village with easy access to transportation, parks, restaurants and entertainment.

East Village | Manhattan
Quick Profile
The East Village has two distinct moods. By day, it is quiet and peaceful. Everyone is out and about, either working or relaxing at Tompkins Square Park, strolling or jogging along the East River, or hanging out in one of the subsets of cultural activity, such as St. Mark’s Place.
But then night falls, and the East Village comes to life, keeping the entertainment and nightlife going long after the other neighborhoods have called it quits for the night. People from all five boroughs flock to the dive bars and speakeasies, head for their favorite cafes and restaurants, or drop in to a music venue to listen to hot tunes or cool jazz and dance the night away. Don’t worry, you don’t have to “know somebody” to gain admittance to even the most popular venues. You won’t find velvet ropes, bouncers, or and a waiting list at the door of most places. Just walk right in and enjoy yourself.
Be prepared for the increased population during fall through spring, when NYU is in session. College students will be everywhere, contributing to the youthful essense of the neighborhood.
