DESCRIPTION

Nestled between three parks in greenwich village, this jewel-box studio apartment at 290 sixth avenue is prewar perfection.  No detail has been overlooked.  Kitchen and bath have been artfully renovated; even the plaster crown moldings in the gracefully curved living area have been fully restored.  The windows look south over tree-lined and quiet minetta street.  What is truly remarkable about this home-a separate eat-in kitchen, storage, and charm.  The pet friendly building features an elevator, a live-in resident manager, bike storage, and extra storage bins.  Priced-to-sell, this opportunity won't last.  

storage galore.  The entrance foyer features a generous coat closet and fully-restored original recessed bookcase.  You will find a full pantry closet in the kitchen, a large dressing room/walk-in closet off of the living/sleeping room, and an additional closet through the dressing room; plus, the bathroom has built-in custom recessed shelving, medicine cabinet storage, and extra space for more storage furniture if needed.  In short, closets, closets, closets!

renovated.  The current owner has been meticulous in their care and renovation of this pristine home.  The large, eat-in kitchen has been fully redone with quartz countertops, a liebherr refrigerator, and a dishwasher.  The bathroom has been fully refurbished with penny tile flooring and art deco-style fixtures that pay homage to the pre-war history of this building and home.  

quiet and bright.  From the windows, you look south onto treelined minetta street.  The windows are also set back from any noise, as the unit is positioned within a setback alcove in the building architecture.  So, you get both an open view of trees and a setback that makes for pin-drop quiet living - perfect.  

charm.  This graceful home oozes with prewar detail, from the fully restored plaster crown moldings to the gentle curves of the walls in the living/sleeping space to the separate dressing room and an entrance foyer with built-in bookcase detail.  

the building is pristine, with a lovely lobby and updated hallways.  The pet friendly co-op features an elevator, a live-in resident manager, bike storage, and extra storage bins.  Purchase approval policies are mostly case-by-case, but the co-op is known for being reasonable.  The home must be designated as a primary residence at purchase, and subleases are permitted after two years of residency, with board approval.  Feel free to ask the listing agent about your individual situation.  

the location could not be better.  For those who know this part of greenwich village, no explanation is necessary.  But if you are unfamiliar, this location has the best of all worlds.  This specific building, between minetta lane and minetta street, has a park on either side and another across the street with a beautiful stone fountain.  Washington square park is steps away for more greenery.  The best of new york in restaurants, bars, and entertainment surround.  Minetta tavern, dante, via carotta, carbone, and greenwich village comedy club, to name a few.  A few blocks, walk and you can cross into soho for more of new york's best.  Not to mention, this part of greenwich village also has easy access to the entire city, with acebdfm trains all at west 4th stop a couple blocks away.
