Historic glam in Gramercy.

Set in a 25-foot wide Greek Revival row house built in 1846, this sophisticated one bedroom coop apartment was recently redesigned using luxe materials. Up just one flight from the stoop, enter the apartment to find high ceilings (11 feet!), a wood-burning fireplace with gorgeous marble mantelpiece, wide plank hardwood floors and huge bright windows with built-in shutters. There is also a sizeable entryway foyer offering a storage closet for coats, shoes and household items. The chef's kitchen has loads of storage, a suite of stainless steel appliances and a large island that can double as a dining area when not in use as counter-space. The living/dining room is massive, inviting and includes access to a rare back balcony with flat steel floor overlooking the peaceful, quiet backyards of neighboring townhouses. The spacious bedroom also faces the back of the building with its large window and a customized closet spanning the length of an entire wall. The unit also boasts through-wall air conditioning in the living room.

The location could not be more convenient with its proximity to Union Square - find Trader Joe's, Whole Foods and an array of eateries and shops all within a few blocks. This well-run coop has 6 units, low maintenance fees and free common storage in the basement. Co-purchasers, guarantors and pied-a-terres allowed. Small pets other than dogs may be considered with board approval. Please be in touch any time for a viewing.
