Asking $582K, this East Village co-op is compact, adorable, and (relatively) affordable

This one-bedroom bolthole at 327 East Third Street, in the equally charming eastern reaches of Alphabet City, is just about as sunny, bright, and quirky as you’d expect from the perfect pre-war hideaway. It’s in an HDFC building, so income restrictions apply, but if you qualify, it could be a lucky find.

Indeed “loaded with character” as the listing says, the diminutive co-op has an open if unusual eat-in kitchen, complete with a washer/dryer.

Details like exposed brick, wood paneling, high ceilings, and wide plank hardwood floors can be found in every direction.

A renovated bath offers enough room to stash the necessities, and though the current bedrooms are narrow, we’re guessing they could be combined for a larger space–or used as-needed for any kind of flexible space. A low maintenance fee of $268/month makes the deal even sweeter.
