Residence 2D is a large, pre-war two bedroom, one bathroom home located at 170 Second Avenue, a striking Art Deco full-service co-op building at the corner of Eleventh Street in the East Village. This spacious north and east facing corner residence contains many of the original details of the historic building that have been lovingly restored, along with many modern upgrades. A grand entry foyer/gallery with multiple closets leads to an expansive living room, which is the centerpiece of this majestic, comfortable home. This light-filled 25'x13' great room looks out over the lovely tree lined block of Eleventh street and boasts plenty of room for a large dining table on one end and a wall of beautiful built-in floor-to-ceiling cabinetry at the other. Both the living room and the foyer open into the large windowed eat-in kitchen, which features original full-height kitchen cabinetry with crown molding, crema marfil marble countertops, copper backsplashes, oak flooring and a large eat-in breakfast area overlooking Eleventh Street. A French door separates the bedroom wing from the living area. The spacious corner bedroom overlooks the treetops of Eleventh Street and is outfitted with a deep closet. The equally sized second bedroom features two large two closets (including one original cedar lined closet) and built in floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. This bedroom faces the back and provides a quiet, peaceful retreat. Conveniently located between the two bedrooms is a windowed, black and white tiled bathroom with the original reglazed 5.5'cast iron soaking tub, pedestal sink, and a large separate shower. High beamed ceilings, hardwood oak flooring, exquisite moldings, french doors, solid original doors with glass door knobs throughout are emblematic of the original details from the historic 1929 building that have been thoughtfully maintained in this home. A brand new Bosch 500 Series washer and dryer are located in a closet in the foyer. 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 mahogany-paneled elevators. The lobby recently underwent a full restoration, and the building is impeccably maintained by a wonderful staff including 24 hour doorman, porters, and a live-in superintendent. Features include central laundry, storage and bike rooms. It is located across the street from historic St. Mark's Church, and is near fantastic restaurants, Union Square, Astor Place, Tompkins Square Park and plentiful public transportation.
