Oftentimes when we gush about views, we’re talking about those overlooking the skyline or water. But there’s something to be said for these clear-as-day views of the Lower East Side street life. At this two-bedroom loft at 115 Allen Street, massive floor-to-ceiling windows look east along Delancey Street and south down Allen Street, capturing all the neighborhood’s vibrancy. In addition, the 1,800-square-foot home has huge swaths of exposed brick walls and a super charming outdoor terrace.
This boutique condominium has just five units, and a keyed elevator opens directly onto this third-floor home. The eastern end of the apartment is devoted to the living spaces, where you’re first greeted by the cool, contemporary kitchen. It’s flanked by an entire wall of built-in shelving and has stainless steel appliances and counters, red lacquered cabinets, and enough space for a small dining table.
The kitchen is open to the living space, which feels like it’s floating above the street thanks to those enormous windows. There’s also a gas fireplace with a stone surround.
At the other end of the apartment, past a hallway with a laundry room and full bathroom, is the bedroom wing. Both bedrooms open to the terrace; seen above is the smaller bedroom, which has tons of exposed brick, is super bright, and has a sizable closet.
The master suite comes complete with an en-suite bathroom and adjacent sitting area that overlooks the terrace and has two large, double-door closets.
The terrace is 200 square feet and features lovely trellis detailing and plenty of space to relax.
The building is just a couple blocks from Sara D. Roosevelt Park and smack in the middle of all the bars, restaurants, and shops of the Lower East Side. The F, M, J, and Z trains are three short blocks away at Delancey Street.
