Just around the corner from the bustle of Broadway at 49 East 12th Street, this one-bedroom duplex features dramatic 16-foot ceilings and a full-height lofted bedroom. Though it technically falls within Greenwich Village, it’s just two blocks south of Union Square and practically across the street from beloved bookstore The Strand. Best of all, its $695,000 price tag falls nicely within the “under $1 million” category, though maintenance fees will add $1,175 to your monthly expenses.
The entire apartment gets generous light from a single, nine-foot window (and a through-wall AC means you’ll be able to keep that window free year-round). The entrance opens right onto the living room which flows nicely into a small dining area and open kitchen—a great setup for entertaining, as the listing notes. A counter adds extra barstool seating while a dishwasher boosts the convenience factor. The only bathroom is on this floor, tucked behind the kitchen.
Up the spiral staircase is a large bedroom area, open to the floor below. There are two built-in closets and a little nook where you’d be able to fit a small desk. Hardwood floors run throughout and otherwise neutral finishes mean you can easily put your mark on the space.
49 East 12th Street is a pre-war co-op between Broadway and University Place. The seven-story building has an elevator, live-in super, laundry room, a common courtyard garden, and a furnished roof deck. Guarantors, pied-a-terre, and pets are welcome.
