New price! The one you've been waiting for! Located on the border of the East Village and the Lower East Side, this lofted one bedroom in a 28-unit elevator building has not been seen on the market in decades and now awaits your creative touch.

Located on the border of the East Village and the Lower East Side, this lofted one bedroom in a 28-unit elevator building has not been seen on the market in decades and now awaits your creative touch. As you turn from the long entry foyer, you are greeted by a wall of six south-facing windows and sky-high ceilings in the living room. There is plenty of wall space for art and you could grow almost any plant in the endlessly sunny space. Ascend the industrial stairway to the bedroom loft and you have ample room for a bed, work area and even some storage. There is a full kitchen, a working fireplace and, best of all, a designated outdoor space on the roof that goes with the apartment. While the space requires some TLC, it won't take much for you and a contractor to make it your own. Still the most cutting edge neighborhood of Manhattan, this coveted location puts you close to NYU, near both chic and historic restaurants and bars like director Baz Luhrmann's new bar Monsieur, Bradley Cooper's Philly Cheesesteak shop, Danny and Coop's on Avenue A, Katz's Delicatessen, and Ballato's classic Italian cuisine), numerous art galleries featuring artists both established and on their way up, the lively buzz of Chinatown restaurants, shops, and Sunday Dim Sum, the ability to walk across more than one bridge to Brooklyn, small verdant parks and community gardens galore (ever a hallmark of the East Village) not to mention a variety of subway and bus lines. You will spend many afternoons lounging on the roof, surveying the downtown city panorama with your favorite drink in hand, thinking how lucky you are to be there! Ownership is flexible: this can be a pied-a-terre, parents can buy for children, or it can become your dream primary residence. There is an assessment in force of approximately $161/month - more information forthcoming.
