132 East 19th Street, 1-W

Once in a generation a special apartment like this becomes available. Rare garden unit in a classic, stylish co-op, situated in the heart of Gramercy Park on Manhattan’s coveted tree-lined "block beautiful.” This charming prewar 1-bedroom, with its own private outdoor patio and garden, is a rare find. The peaceful living space offers a real break from the city with an open living room and kitchen and adjacent outdoor space. The kitchen is compact but functional with an electric cooktop, refrigerator/freezer with ice maker and a convection oven/microwave. A renovated marble bathroom, quiet bedroom, decorative fireplace and hallway entry complete the comfortable layout. With its elegant lobby, the quaint and well-maintained co-op also provides a virtual doorman, designated private storage unit, bike storage, and laundry facilities. Gramercy Park is an oasis within the city and one of New York's best neighborhoods. Close to Union Square, the Farmer’s Market, the East Village and many of the city's finest shops and restaurants. Built by the famed architect, Frederick Sterner in 1911, the landmarked building has been home to a roster of luminaries and is surrounded by historic townhouses and notable Gothic and Greek Revival homes.
