Top Floor With Elevator East Village Pre-War Charmer with Modern Comforts

This one-bedroom home, perched atop a boutique, elevator, pre-war cooperative building is the epitome of timeless elegance, thoughtful layout and modern design. Bathed in light and elevated by soaring 9’6” ceilings, graceful arched doorways, inlaid hardwood floors, central air conditioning, and extensive storage, this space is move-in ready, with every detail considered.

The spacious living and dining area strikes the perfect balance of elegance and ease; ideal for entertaining yet equally inviting for quiet evenings at home. The modern, windowed, walk through kitchen is a standout, with tall white cabinetry, stainless steel countertops, a dedicated coffee bar, and premium appliances including a Bosch dishwasher and counter-depth Liebherr refrigerator.

The king-sized bedroom offers both scale and function, with a custom wall-to-wall system of walnut closets and sleek built-ins for maximum shoe and clothing storage. Discreetly integrated into the cabinetry for ultimate convenience are a Bosch washer/dryer and a separate office with desk space. Double-paned windows throughout, and an additional layer of “Cityproof” bedroom windows ensure extra peace and quiet, while the skylit bathroom feels spa-like with its glass-enclosed walk-in shower, custom vanity, and smart storage cabinets.

This well-maintained 21-unit co-op includes an elevator, live-in superintendent, storage lockers, bike room, and flexible ownership policies. Pieds-à-terre, co-purchasing, parents buying for children, gifting, and subletting after two years are all permitted. Pets are welcome.

At the center of the East Village, 87 East 2nd Street is one block from the F train and Whole Foods, with Tompkins Square Park, Union Market, and the neighborhood’s best restaurants, cafés, and galleries just steps away. With multiple subway lines nearby, the city is yours to explore.
