Charming Studio with Fireplace, High Ceilings & In-Unit Laundry on a Premier East Village Block
Situated on one of the most desirable tree-lined streets in the East Village, this thoughtfully designed studio offers the perfect blend of pre-war charm and modern convenience. Located on East 12th Street between 2nd and 3rd Avenues, the apartment features two oversized windows overlooking the picturesque block and floods the space with natural light.
As you enter, you're welcomed by soaring 10'3" ceilings, a striking exposed brick wall, and a working wood-burning fireplace that adds warmth and character. The spacious living area includes a custom-built queen-size Murphy bed, sleek storage solutions, and integrated cabinetry-ideal for maximizing functionality in a stylish way.
