Full-Floor 2 Bedroom 1 Bathroom Residence in a Historic 1800s Townhome
Prime East Village Directly Across from Tompkins Square Park
Experience timeless New York charm in this beautifully furnished, full-floor residence located in a landmark 1800s townhouse.
Originally built in 1845 by architect Joseph Trench, this Queen Anne-style home was initially designed in the Greek Revival and Italianate tradition, architectural influences still visible throughout the block. The residence once featured a parlor-floor stoop on its western side-a signature element of 19th-century craftsmanship.
This two-bedroom, one-bathroom home spans an entire floor, offering historic character and modern comfort. High ceilings, original moldings, and wide-plank floors complement tastefully updated interiors. Large windows flood the space with natural light and offer direct views of Tompkins Square Park, just across the street.
Nestled in the heart of the East Village, the home is surrounded by charming cafés, acclaimed restaurants, and a vibrant arts scene-making it the perfect pied-à-terre for short-term stays or transitional living.
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.
