Description

Directly overlooking Tompkins Square Park in the premier East Village doorman condominium, the famed Christodora House located on the most historical block of Avenue B. This approximately 1,150-square-foot modernist loft offers an exceptional sense of openness, light, and sweeping panoramic views visible from nearly every vantage point. Rarely available in a prewar, full-service condominium, the residence was created by combining a studio and one-bedroom into a true open loft, impeccably designed by Joel Sanders Architects.

Every element of the home has been custom designed, with integrated architectural details and modular built-ins that both define and elevate the living experience. Oversized casement windows frame unobstructed park and skyline views stretching from the Empire State Building through Union Square and down to Lower Manhattan. Matte lacquered millwork provides extensive concealed storage, while built-in sofas are seamlessly integrated into the architecture, maximizing both seating and floor space. This refined, clean-lined aesthetic continues into the bedroom area, allowing the interiors to flow effortlessly throughout.

The kitchen and bath are finished in honed charcoal-gray granite, establishing a restrained, sculptural material palette. A floating island anchors the open kitchen, which remains connected to the living space and is equipped with high-end European appliances discreetly concealed within custom millwork. The oversized granite bathroom features a deep Japanese soaking tub, offering a serene, spa-like retreat. Split-zone air conditioning ensures comfort year-round.

While currently configured as an open loft, the layout was intentionally designed to be easily adaptable, with the option to add a millwork partition with pocket doors to create a separate sleeping or work area-without sacrificing light, views, or circulation.

The Christodora House offers a full-time doorman, laundry on every floor, and a newly renovated bike room, all easily accessible from the spacious lobby. This pet-friendly prewar condominium blends historic character with modern convenience in one of Manhattan's most dynamic neighborhoods. Just outside your door, Tompkins Square Park features a beloved dog run, and some of the most lush plantings and ancient trees in NYC.

Surrounded by an unparalleled array of cultural and culinary destinations-including top-rated restaurants, cafés, bars, theaters, and boutique shopping-this residence delivers seamless living at the heart of the East Village. A rare opportunity to experience design-forward loft living with iconic park views in a truly special building.
