This unique, one-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom home spans three full floors plus a flexible lower level, and boasts multiple outdoor spaces that are made for entertaining.
From the street, one first enters 217 East 5th Street through the well maintained turn of the century building that houses the other 9 residences that encompass the entire cooperative. At the end of the ground floor is a private entrance which opens to a secluded bluestone courtyard surrounded by lush greenery. On the main level of the home is a large living room with one of three gas fireplaces, a wet bar fully equipped with a GE Monogram refrigerator, ice maker and built-in wine fridge, and french doors that open directly onto the private courtyard. This level is the ideal gathering spot for seamless indoor/outdoor living. Also on this level is a foyer with a large coat closet and a renovated powder room.
Up an appointed spiral staircase on the second level is an oversized, open chef’s kitchen, dining room, and lounge area with an additional fireplace. The beautifully renovated windowed kitchen features custom bamboo cabinetry, Caesarstone countertops, and is equipped with a 36-inch sub-zero refrigerator, vented Viking oven and stove top, Bosch dishwasher, built-in GE Profile microwave, and integrated Marvel wine cooler. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large formal dining area with french doors opening onto a “dining” deck, which is also accessible by a large outdoor staircase from the courtyard.
On the third level is the full-floor master suite. A spacious sitting room with a third fireplace and pocket doors lead to the bedroom that is outfitted with built-in cabinetry. A large dressing room boasts floor-to-ceiling custom shelving and storage. The serene, windowed master bathroom features a dual jet shower with Grohe hardware, a double vanity with Robern medicine cabinets, a Toto toilet, and is finished with blue ceramic subway tiled walls and basketweave marble floors.
The top level of this home is the expansive rooftop. This show stopping outdoor space provides the perfect oasis from city living. There is an outdoor kitchen with a gas grill and sink, a dining area with a covered pergola, and a large lounge area. This level (as well as the courtyard) is beautifully landscaped and includes electrical and water hookups and an automatic irrigation system.
On the lower level of the home is a large room that offers multiple opportunities to function as a den, game room, home office, or guest room. A marble clad full-bathroom that features heated floors and Kohler hardware has been newly installed. Also on this level are custom built-in oversized closets and a large laundry/storage room which features a full sized vented Whirlpool washer and dryer.
Other noteworthy features inside the home are an A/V system and full wiring throughout the house, 7-inch wide plank oak floors, newly painted exterior wrought iron stairs, and north, south, and western exposures throughout. The Carriage House underwent extensive renovations by the current owners to completely modernize the home. These renovations included replacing the roof and its decking and replacing all of the blue stone tiles in the courtyard. Additionally, the first three levels of the home were totally stripped down to the studs and rebuilt.
217 East 5th Street presents a rare opportunity to own a secluded, free-standing home with unparalleled outdoor space in downtown Manhattan. Close by is Cooper Square and Astor Place, as well as some of the East Village’s most notable restaurants in addition to the Standard Hotel.
