This Beekman apartment may be small, but it’s nothing if not charming. Located at the prestigious Southgate co-op at 434 East 52nd Street, the studio has plenty of pre-war details like beamed ceilings, oak floors, classic moldings, and an exposed brick wood-burning fireplace. It also has a foyer, two generous closets, a separate full kitchen, and a dressing nook outside the bathroom. And it’s asking just $349,000.
The first closet is conveniently right off the entrance; the other larger one is off the main living space, which measures just about 250 square feet and accommodates both living and sleeping areas. The home has been modernized with Artemide fixtures by Ernesto Gismondi, monorail tech track lighting, a sleek Ron Rezek ceiling fan, and Dornbracht fittings.
To keep things private (and not smelling like last night’s dinner!), there’s a door to the kitchen, which has custom cabinets, basketweave marble tile floors, a chrome rail organizing system, a half fridge, a four-burner gas cooktop, and a dishwasher.
Outside the windowed bathroom, there’s a private dressing nook with a built-in bureau.
The building is pet-friendly and allows pied-a-terre ownership and sublets. It is part of a five-building Art Deco complex developed by Bing and Bing and designed by Emery Roth. It’s also where John Lennon famously lived in the penthouse.
