It’s a challenge to find a nice apartment of any size for under $1 million–save perhaps a studio–in prime downtown neighborhoods like the Lower East Side. This two-bedroom co-op at 85 Stanton Street is a classic tenement walk-up with a small second bedroom; but in addition to location, it has a sparkling renovation on its side plus lots of brick and pre-war charm, and it’s only asking $875,000.
Buckets of white paint, walnut-stained hardwood flooring, some odd-looking “exposed steel beams” and the aforementioned brick frame an open layout, with the living and dining areas combined. Recessed lighting keeps things looking current.
A shiny new windowed kitchen has a classic subway tile backsplash. There’s plenty of counter space, lots of storage, a jumbo six-burner range, and a Miele dishwasher. A breakfast bar works for casual dining and separating the space.
A chic marble bathroom with brass fixtures fits in with the rest of the space with its clean, functional good looks. The large master bedroom has two big windows, and one wall is lined with closets. A second bedroom is a bit small and has no closet, but it’s closer to the bathroom.
The pet-friendly pre-war co-op has newly renovated hallways and lobby and a virtual doorman system. We’re guessing that since laundry isn’t mentioned, the local laundromat will become a familiar place to visit.
