Perched on the 12th floor of 170 Second Avenue (at the corner of 11th street), this lovely two-bedroom cooperative residence provides a quiet, spacious retreat and exudes prewar charm. City views to the east and protected views of the historic, landmarked St. Mark's Church to the west complete this charming home. A grand entry foyer outfitted with a double-deep coat closet opens to a large, open living room with full size dining area. The large, windowed eat-in kitchen boasts abundant cabinet space and is equipped with stainless steel GE stove, refrigerator and dishwasher. Both the kitchen and living room windows face south and offer oblique views over the East Village. The large, quiet east facing bedroom features two windows, offering bright exposures with views over the East Village and the tree tops of Tompkins Square Park. The west-facing bedroom has outstanding views over the historic, landmarked St. Mark's Church and Stuyvesant Street. The large, windowed renovated bathroom also faces the church, and features porcelain tile, Kohler 5' soaking tub, pedestal sink and medicine cabinet, a separate glass-enclosed shower, and Grohe fixtures. The hallway outside the bedrooms is lined with two large closets, one of which is an original cedar-lined closet, and the other is the perfect location for a washer/dryer (which have been installed in numerous other A lines). Beamed, nine-foot ceilings, refinished, original parquet and plank oak flooring, and base and crown moldings throughout serve to highlight the charm and character of this charming prewar residence. This perfect two bedroom home is in the heart of one of Manhattan's most vibrant neighborhoods and close to fantastic restaurants, Union Square, Astor Place, Tompkins Square Park and public transportation. 170 Second Avenue is a majestic prewar jewel in the East Village with an extraordinary lobby featuring original terrazzo floors, brass chandeliers, Art Deco murals and a mahogany-paneled elevator. The building is impeccably maintained by a wonderful full-time staff including porters, a live-in superintendent and a 24-hour elevator attendant. Features include central laundry, storage and bike rooms.
