Property Summary
Description
Step back into a time when homes were crafted with spacious living areas and thoughtful architectural details, like charming wall niches and elegant picture and floor moldings that blend function and style. Welcome to Unit 5H—a legal one-bedroom, one-bath home that is used as two large queen bedrooms. This recently renovated residence seamlessly combines the timeless elegance of pre-war architecture with modern conveniences in a pet-friendly, amenity-rich building. For those who love cooking, the windowed, eat-in kitchen has been beautifully updated with sleek stainless steel appliances, expansive countertops, and space for a large breakfast table. The western exposure ensures the home is bathed in warm afternoon and evening sunlight. Upon entering, you’re welcomed by a spacious foyer that can easily double as a home office. To the left, an elegant archway opens into the expansive living and formal dining area, where two large windows invite the beautiful late-day light inside. The two large bedrooms offer a different light-filled atmosphere—one enjoys Western exposure, while the other benefits from Northern exposure. Both rooms are generously sized to accommodate queen-sized beds and additional furniture. The recently renovated bathroom exudes classic charm with white subway tiles, sleek black flooring, and tasteful fixtures, all set within a bright windowed space. 140 East 2nd Street is a well-maintained pre-war elevator building, highly sought-after in the bucolic neighborhood of Windsor Terrace. Residents enjoy the convenience of a live-in superintendent, music recording studio, bike storage, laundry facility, stroller parking, a children’s playroom, common outdoor space, and a storage room. Low maintenance fees include internet and cable. It’s ideally situated near the F and G subway lines, Prospect Park, as well as local shops and restaurants.
