Description
Apartment #A at 139 Norfolk Street offers a rare investment opportunity to own a beautifully renovated one-bedroom home with private outdoor space in the heart of the Lower East Side. Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined block, this move-in-ready residence seamlessly blends pre-war character with thoughtful modern upgrades. The apartment underwent a down-to-the-studs renovation and features an open, functional layout with exposed brick, recessed lighting, upgraded electrical and plumbing systems, engineered stone waterfall countertops, stainless steel appliances, a vented hood, abundant closet storage, and a windowed bathroom. Every detail was carefully considered to create a home that feels both stylish and highly livable. The spacious bedroom is enhanced by a versatile loft area, offering valuable bonus space that can be used for storage, a home office, reading nook, or creative retreat- an uncommon feature that adds flexibility and functionality to the home. What truly sets Apartment A apart is its private garden oasis- a rare and coveted extension of the living space. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee, dining al fresco, entertaining friends, gardening, or simply unwinding outdoors, this tranquil retreat offers an exceptional lifestyle rarely found in Manhattan. The well-maintained co-op features extremely low monthly maintenance, a live-in superintendent, pet-friendly policies, and flexible ownership options including co-purchasing, guarantors, and parental purchases. Unlimited subletting is permitted after two years of ownership, making this an attractive option for both end users and long-term investors. A brand-new building boiler has also recently been installed. Located moments from Essex Market, Essex Crossing, Equinox, neighborhood parks, and some of downtown Manhattan's most iconic destinations- including Katz's Delicatessen, Russ & Daughters, and countless acclaimed restaurants, cafés, and boutiques- you'll enjoy the very best of Lower East Side living. Convenient access to the F, M, J, and Z trains makes commuting throughout the city effortless. A truly unique home that pairs renovated interiors, bonus loft space, private outdoor living, low carrying costs, and one of Manhattan's most vibrant neighborhoods. Note: Tenant/Lease in place until December 31st 2026.
