40 East 10th Street #2I

Positioned across the front of the distinguished 40-50 East 10th Street, a 1929 full service co- operative, Apartment 2I provides the perfect opportunity to create a substantial home in an ideal location in the heart of the Village.

Known for its casement windows, wood burning fireplaces and graciously proportioned apartments, 40-50 East 10th Street is one of the most loved pre-war, full-service buildings Downtown- and the "I" line rarely comes on the market. Each of the ten windows faces onto 10th Street's historic architecture and scenery providing the perfect backdrop of this classically handsome home.

A proper entry foyer welcomes you upon arrival and leads to a vast, 25 foot long living room with wood burning fireplace and original stone mantel, and three substantial casement windows centered with a charming Juliet planting balcony. The eat-in kitchen offers two windows and remarkable space to create the kitchen and dining lounge of one's dreams. The bedroom hall leads to a guest bath- accessible from the hall- and 15 foot long guest bedroom. The master suite offers a dressing area, and windowed bath within a very sizable room.

The essence of 1929 pure architecture pervades- the original floors have been beautifully restored, the ceilings are high, and every space is well conceived for gracious living then- and today.

40-50 East 10th Street, built by Helme and Corbett Architects- the firm responsible for One Fifth Avenue and the Metropolitan Life North Building on Madison Square Park is a New York treasure. This well-run co-operative provides the comfort and security of full time doormen, a resident building manager and numerous staff, and offers such amenities to its residents as a laundry room, fitness room, children's playroom, storage and bike room, and a beautifully landscaped roof garden.
