244 East 5th Street, 1

Unique loft-like 1-bed + 1-bath parlor floor apartment with a private South facing terrace in a townhouse on a desirable tree lined block in the East Village . As soon as you step into the living room, you are taken away with the special atmosphere of this apartment with the grand black iron spiral staircase leading nowhere, the black marble decorative fireplace, the high ceilings, the warm light wooden floor throughout the apartment and the unique kitchen with wall to ceiling windows opening on your private deck where you can barbecue, sunbath or just relax. The large tiled chef's kitchen is simply fantastic to cook all day with all the light and sun coming in, a gas stove, gas oven, dishwasher, large refrigerator, freezer and so many cabinets! There is also plenty of room to install a table for 6 people in the kitchen so you can enjoy the changing landscape of your terrace while you eat. The living room is spacious and graceful and is definitively a great place to live your life at the fullest. And if you work from home, there is plenty of room to install a desk. There are pocket doors separating the living room and the bedroom that is facing the quiet street and comes with a complete wall of white Ikea closets and another identical black marble decorative fireplace adding more texture to this unique place. The green slate tiled bathroom comes with a shower and a large sink. Last but not least: you get you own washer and dryer in the basement (2 flights down). Cats are fine and dogs are welcome on a case-by-case basis. Heat is included in the rent but tenants pay for their electric, gas and cable. AC split unit is installed in the kitchen/dining room and is cooling down the entire place. The apartment is available now and won't last. Deal requirements: First month rent + 1 month security deposit + broker's fee.
