A corner alcove studio at The Hamilton with the combination that matters most here: south and east exposures, a complete renovation, a walk-in closet, and a windowed sleeping alcove that gives the home a more defined 2.5-room layout. Residence 515 brings all four into one efficient Village apartment. The functional layout uses every foot with intention. The main living area holds south light through the day. The windowed sleeping alcove creates a division between living and sleeping that most studios at this size do not have. The walk-in closet gives the home storage depth that changes how a small apartment functions day to day. Original hardwood floors run throughout. The open kitchen has stone countertops, a breakfast bar, and Bertazzoni and Bosch appliances. The windowed bath includes a tub/shower combination and pedestal sink. The Hamilton is a full-service co-op built in 1954, with 6 stories and 214 residences. The building offers a full-time doorman, live-in resident manager, fitness center, and common garden. Pets are allowed. On East 9th Street between Broadway and University Place, The Hamilton sits in one of downtown Manhattan's most connected pockets, positioned between Greenwich Village, the East Village, NoHo, SoHo, and Union Square. The 8 St-NYU and Astor Place subway stations are nearby, with access to the Broadway and Lexington Avenue lines. Washington Square Park, Wegmans at Astor Place, Claudette, Ippudo, and Joe's Pizza are all within easy reach, with Union Square a short walk north. Guarantors, co-purchasing, and gifting are considered case by case. Pieds-a-terre are not permitted. The flip tax is equal to 4 months of maintenance and is paid by the purchaser.
