A tasteful and thorough renovation has transformed this classic two bedroom pre-war home into a contemporary gem. Exposed beams throughout, restored parquet floors, and a stylishly remodeled arched entryway are on full display at first glance. Newly installed track and recessed lighting all on dimmers, as well as a brand new kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, quartz composite countertops, and stainless appliances add to the impressive design. The home receives good light and feels extra spacious with three exposures and windows in every room. The split bedrooms are generously sized. The dining and living rooms invite both intimate settings and larger gatherings. The newly renovated bathroom has marble countertops and a full sized tub. There are ample closets in both bedrooms and hallways. Thru the wall air-conditioners are below eye level and discreet. Located on a tree lined block between Second and Third Avenues, with easy access to Union Square and East Village amenities, this distinctive home is in an especially well managed mid-rise co-op with two elevators, a live in super, basement laundry, bicycle storage, and select storage lockers. Pied-a-terres, co-purchases, gifting and other purchasing options are possible. Sublets are allowed with common limitations. The co-op is pet friendly too!
