Listing Notes

A Rare Front Terrace Residence in the Heart of Downtown Perched within a classic elevator brownstone, this exceptional one-bedroom home offers a truly rare and coveted feature: an expansive, tree-lined terrace stretching the full width of the residence-an extraordinary extension of living space seldom found in downtown Manhattan. Soaring 11-foot beamed ceilings create a sense of volume and architectural character, while the gracious living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, rich hardwood floors, and custom built-in shelving-an inviting setting for both quiet evenings and refined entertaining. The thoughtfully designed kitchen features a gas range, elegant tilework, and an open counter that seamlessly connects to the living area, enhancing both flow and functionality. The serene bedroom offers tranquil treetop views and is outfitted with a wall-length California closet, providing generous and efficient storage. A beautifully finished bathroom, complete with a skylight, bathes the space in natural light. Ideally located just moments from Union Square, residents enjoy immediate access to world-class shopping, the renowned Greenmarket, and multiple transportation lines-including the nearby F Train just one block away. A rare offering combining timeless charm, exceptional outdoor space, and an unbeatable downtown address.
