Oversized East Village Coop – Convertible 3BR with Unlimited Subletting from Day One!

Nestled in the heart of the East Village, this generously sized 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers the perfect combination of flexibility, space and location—with the added bonus of being easily convertible to a 3-bedroom. Whether you're looking to create a dedicated home office, nursery, or guest room, the oversized living space gives you the layout options rarely found in this price point.

Situated on the top floor of a well-kept, investor-friendly coop, the apartment is pin-drop quiet and shares no walls with neighboring units. From the moment you enter, you’re greeted with an expansive living/dining area, ideal for entertaining or simply spreading out. A flexible bonus space easily accommodates a third bedroom or private workspace without sacrificing the open feel.

The windowed kitchen features black marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a new in-unit washer/dryer. Both bedrooms easily fit king-sized beds and face east for fantastic natural light all day long. The two bathrooms (one en-suite) offer Kohler fixtures, Toto toilets and are windowed.

The building welcomes pets, allows co-purchasing, gifting, and parents buying for children, and is overseen by a full-time superintendent.

Location, Location, Location:
Two blocks from Tompkins Square Park and moments from Astor Place and NYU, this home is surrounded by some of downtown’s best dining and culture. Start your morning with coffee and pastries at La Cabra, brunch at Cafe Mogador, or a cozy catch-up at Cafe Maud. For evenings out, enjoy exceptional Japanese cuisine at Kimura, just around the corner.

You're also just minutes from the 6, R, W, L, and F trains, making city access effortless.

Whether you're seeking a smart investment, a flexible layout, or the vibrancy of downtown living, this East Village gem checks every box..
