All showings and open houses are by appointment. Please contact to schedule. Tucked inside a handsome prewar walk-up on one of Hell's Kitchen's quieter residential blocks, this charming one-bedroom is a home with soul, history and warmth. Step inside and the ceilings lift your gaze first, soaring past ten feet and crossed by handsome beams that give the rooms a loft-like sense of air. Exposed brick holds more than a century of the city's story, and a decorative fireplace anchors the living room, the kind of focal point that turns a sofa and a good lamp into an evening ritual. Hardwood floors run throughout. The windowed kitchen brings in daylight and fresh air, a small luxury anyone who has cooked in a windowless galley will appreciate. The bedroom can accommodate a queen-sized bed. Dishwashers are permitted, and laundry is in the building. Then there is the neighborhood. Close proximity to Ninth Avenue's restaurants and cafés, wine bars that become your regular spot by the second visit, and the lights of the Theater District. Central Park and Columbus Circle are a few blocks north, the Hudson River waterfront is a short walk west, and the A, B, C, D, E and 1 trains are nearby. It is a location that puts all of Manhattan within easy reach and still feels, at the end of the day, like coming home. The co-op is a well-maintained, 20-unit building, Part time super. It offers flexible policies: gifting is allowed, pets are welcome with board approval, financing up to 80% is permitted, and pied-à-terre and co-purchase arrangements are considered case by case. Monthly maintenance includes heat and water. Soaring beamed ceilings, exposed brick, and timeless prewar character in the heart of Hell's Kitchen make this a home that is hard to replicate at any price.
