**All appointments - including Sunday Open Houses - are by appointment only. If you are working with another agent, that agent needs to reach out to make the appointment and is required to be present** Beautifully renovated and filled with natural light, this spacious one-bedroom has been thoughtfully redesigned to maximize both living space and storage. The wall that once separated the well-proportioned living room from the windowed kitchen has been removed, creating an open and inviting layout. A large breakfast bar anchors the space, providing generous prep space as well as the perfect spot for casual dining and entertaining. The renovated kitchen features custom cabinetry and excellent storage, along with a Bosch dishwasher, Samsung gas range, Haier refrigerator (2023), and new range hood (2026). An LG all-in-one washer/dryer adds the convenience of in-home laundry, with the motor replaced in 2023. Throughout the apartment, smart custom details make exceptional use of every inch, including Elfa storage systems, built-in bookcases, custom radiator covers, custom window treatments with blackout shades in the bedroom, and deep windowsills ideal for plants, art, and favorite objects. Bright, stylish, and exceptionally functional, this is a thoughtfully renovated home where the improvements go well beyond the surface. Hillman Housing Corporation is one of the Lower East Side's most established co-op communities — part of the beloved Co-op Village that has anchored this neighborhood for generations. Building amenities include a fitness center, modern laundry facilities (in-unit washer/dryer permitted with management approval), bike storage, cold storage, a children's playroom, a community garden, composting, and on-site super and maintenance staff. Two private parks and playgrounds are reserved exclusively for residents, and there's an on-site parking garage (fee, waitlist). Co-op policies are notably flexible: co-purchasing, gifting, guarantors, parents buying, and pied-à-terre use are all permitted, with subletting allowed after two years of ownership. Dogs up to 35 lbs welcome. The location is exceptional — and getting better. Essex Crossing is a short walk away, bringing Target, Trader Joe's, Regal Cinemas, and Essex Market under one roof. The rebuilt East River Park has reopened at the waterfront with a reconstructed amphitheater, tennis and basketball courts, ballfields, BBQ areas, and open lawns, part of a $1.45 billion transformation still underway. The new Corlears Hook pedestrian bridge connects the park directly to Corlears Hook Park and the NYC Ferry terminal, where a boat to Williamsburg, Greenpoint, or Long Island City costs the same as a subway ride. The M14A stops at the corner, the M21 runs across the street, and the M22 and M14D are a block away, linking you to the East Village, SoHo, the West Village, and Chinatown. The J, M, F, and Z trains are at Delancey and Essex, with the F also at East Broadway.
