new listings: down-townhouse & up-townhouse
We've got a couple here for both downtowners and uptowners. I'm pleased to highlight two new townhouse listings that represent unique value, in their neighborhoods. A huge, 25' wide East Village sanctuary listed at $4,995,000; and for only $1,850,000 a special home just north of Carnegie Hill. Both have charm and original details.
the down-townhouse: 243 east 7th street
If you've been looking for that 25 foot wide townhouse, with lots of room, you'll do no better than our new East Village one. On charming, tree lined East 7th Street, it has the feeling of a true urban sanctuary, there is even a hammock in the backyard. Southern light fills almost 5300 square feet of home which includes a large terrace off the full-floor, master bedroom suite. With the recent sale of nearby Stuyvesant Town & Peter Cooper Village, this area has become much sought after in recent months, as the prospects rise for even more shops and services in this already booming area. The East Village's heritage as the bohemian center for the 1980's art scene, and it's more recent transformation into a eclectic downtown urban center, makes it a remarkable neighborhood filled with eateries of every kind, boutiques and lively nightlife.

the up-townhouse: 105 east 101 street
Our up-townhouse is a real bargain when you consider the price of similar homes just a few blocks south, in tony Carnegie Hill. This one is on 101st Street, between Park and Lexington Avenues, on a very pretty block. South light spills into 2400 square feet of nicely renovated living space. It has 4 bedrooms, 3 baths and a small yard which could be decked and used in warm weather. Plus there is an additional 700 square foot cellar that's half-above grade with bright, natural light. It is close to everything this neighborhood has to offer. A real bargain for the quality of this exceptional Manhattan home priced at $750 per square foot, not including the cellar or yard; it has everything you need in a townhouse, that won't break the bank at $1,850,000.
