228 East 13th Street, 16

Located 2.5 flights up, Apartment 16 is a one-bedroom (1BR) featuring sunny South and East exposures. Storage options abound as three closets (one cedar-lined!) and functional built-ins are included throughout the home. Located between Second and Third Avenues in PRIME East Village, the location is unsurpassed - Gramercy Park, Union Square, Astor Place and NoHo are just beyond your door.

The home opens onto a sunny kitchen space dramatically lit by two large windows and extends into the dining nook which comfortably seats four. Newly renovated, the kitchen boasts quartzite counters and brand new stainless appliances including a gas oven / range and dishwasher. There is also plenty of storage in the crisp white cabinets that line the space.

Note: The co-op board's policy as it relates to washer/dryers is that shareholders can have either a dishwasher OR a washer/dryer (but not both), so there is the opportunity to add a washer/dryer if this is your preference.

The kitchen / dining area gives way to the living room, which features two South-facing windows overlooking the mid-lot gardens. The design features white-painted exposed brick (maximizing the natural sunlight), two large closets, and built-in shelves spanning an entire wall. Additionally, the wood floors throughout the apartment have been recently refinished in a lovely matte.

En route to the bedroom is the windowed bath, replete with a recently updated medicine cabinet and lighting fixtures. The neutral tiles and fresh grouting provide an attractive contrast to the exposed brick accent wall. Just before the bedroom is the large cedar-lined closet - providing a pleasant scent and natural moth-repellent. The bedroom is sizable and comfortably fits numerous configurations. A Full-sized bed / nightstand combo or a Queen-sized bed are all options.

228 East 13th Street is a boutique walk-up cooperative which allows for pied-a-terres, gifting, and co-purchasing. Subletting is allowed for a period of up to four years, after two years of ownership. Pets are permitted with board approval and there is a full-time super. The building has been fastidious in ensuring practical updates over the years including a new boiler and roof. Rest assured, future shareholders will not be weighed down by unforeseen "building work." Local subway options include the L, N, Q, W, 4, 5, and 6, all within .25 miles of the building.
