About the Listing 7222 - 42331,36034

Nestled just two flights up in a prime East Village location, this bright, spacious and thoughtfully laid out alcove studio blends pre-war charm with contemporary design. Overlooking a quiet rear garden, the open-concept layout features exposed brick walls, high ceilings, hardwood flooring, enough room for a dining area, and a beautiful decorative fireplace. In addition, no detail has been overlooked to maximize storage throughout the home. A dedicated entryway supports a custom built-in shoe-rack, key holder and coat closet. Moving into the spacious living area, you will enjoy the natural light streaming in from the back of the building that overlooks a quiet common garden. The bedroom area is raised on a platform which clearly divides the space and can accomodate a Queens size bed. Underneath the platform are four storage drawers, one of which is spacious enough to house a mattress that is perfect for guests. There is also the added benefit of a 3-panel, sliding frosted glass wall that makes the sleeping area a true sanctuary--letting in light when desired and providing privacy when required. The windowed kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher, built-in microwave, and combination LG washer/dryer. There are also wood and glass cabinets including a tall pantry closet for those who love to cook. Two large clothing closets follow behind the galley kitchen and lead you into the bright, windowed bathroom, where you will find a glass enclosed shower and custom tile work. There are also overhead storage cabinets in the living space, making this the absolutely perfect studio space! 186 East 2nd Street is a beautiful prewar walkup condop located on the tree lined block between Avenues A and B. Residents enjoy the peace and quiet of the neighborhood while still being in close proximity to all of the shopping, dining, and entertainment that the East Village is so well known for. Dining options include Katz's Delicatessen, Momofuku Noodle Bar, Veselka, Soothr, Lucien, Estela, Le French Bristro, Cafe Mogador, Ruffian, Takahachi, Rosella, Nowon, Lavagna and Wildair. There are also multiple music venues such as Bowery Ballroom, Webster Hall, Bitter End, Arlene's Grocery, Bowery Electric and Nublu. You've also got Il Posto Accanto and Plado Wine Tasting Bar right on the block! Transportation is easily accessible via the F train at 2nd Avenue on East Houston Street, and the J, M, Z trains at Essex Street. There is even a CiitBike dock on the block!
