This one bed, one bath East Village home delivers pre-war warmth and charm with significant updates. A stunning, recently renovated open kitchen offers smart design, abundant storage, new appliances, a gas stove, and high-end finishes. The apartment's features include hardwood floors, painted exposed brick, and through-wall air conditioning. A washer/dryer and/or dishwasher can be added with board approval. If you're searching for a quiet respite from busy city life, yet still want to be in the middle of it all, you're in luck. This home is situated on the top floor of a fourth floor walk up building (no upstairs neighbors) and overlooks the block's rear courtyards, not the street. 227 East 12th Street is an intimate and well-maintained co-op building with sixteen residences on four floors. There is a common laundry room, common storage room, and voice intercom security system. An assessment of $483/mo. is in place through Aug. 2024, and there is no Flip Tax. The pet policy does not allow dogs. Subletting permitted after two years of ownership with board approval for up to two out of four years. The location is close to Union Square Park and its famous Greenmarket, numerous subway and bus lines and CitiBike stations, and all of the restaurants, shopping, and nightlife the East Village is known for (including the new Wegmans supermarket on Astor Place, a few blocks away).
