About this home
This apartment is almost an urban myth: a bright Downtown 1BR with its own large private backyard—but without the usual ground-floor tradeoff of losing natural light. This one actually exists—but it comes up for sale about as often as the Mets win the World Series. This 1BR offers an exceptionally large private outdoor space for a ONE-bedroom condo in a historic building. Imagine morning cappuccinos on your south-facing deck, then dinner, cocktails and friends in your own cozy backyard. And you get all of that without sacrificing sunlight: the home sits on an elevated parlor level, seven steps above grade, with sun pouring through oversized windows. Don’t let the stated 534 SF fool you—this home lives and functions much larger. The bright, airy layout includes a king-size bedroom with room for a corner office and two large closets; an expansive modern kitchen with breakfast bar; a laundry nook; and more storage than you’ll find in many TWO-bedroom apartments. How? A remarkably efficient layout where virtually every inch is usable, soaring 11' ceilings, with mechanicals cleverly tucked away overhead rather than competing for valuable closet space—and, best of all, your own approximately 10' x 7' PRIVATE storage room directly below the apartment. Impeccably maintained and located in a gut-renovated historic building, the home also features central AC and heat, an in-unit washer/d.
