518 E 11TH Street #5A

True turn-key perfection in the heart of the East Village! This beautifully laid out sun-flooded two bedroom apartment is just four short flights up in a charming boutique Prewar building. Blessed with northern, eastern, and western exposures with views of the Empire State Building and the magnificent Gramercy skyline!

Stylishly renovated in 2022 and impeccably taken care of, this bright and open residence boasts nine oversized windows, oak strip hardwood floors, more than 9-foot ceilings, exposed brick, and clever built ins throughout. The eye-catching windowed kitchen is anchored by custom hardwood cabinetry commissioned especially for the space from an Amish master craftsman. Complete with a fully vented Viking stove, Fisher-Paykel refrigerator and double-drawer dishwasher, the renovation features unlacquered brass hardware, ample countertop space (including a breakfast bar), and incredible storage. Each of the quiet and peaceful king-sized bedrooms feature large custom closets, and the windowed bathroom has a combination shower/tub and - again - more great storage.

One block from Tompkins Square Park, this pet-friendly and financially sound self-managed co-op features free washer/dryers on each floor (and only shared with one other unit), video intercom security, a garbage chute, bike storage, and a live-in super. Unlimited subletting allowed after one year of residency with board approval. The L train (with its new elevator accessible entrance on Avenue A and 14th) and all the Union Square subways are close by, as are Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Target, and all this singular neighborhood's best restaurants, nightlife and boutiques. Very special apartment that is the opposite of cookie cutter!
