Discover the ultimate expression of urban living in the heart of the East Village—this trophy penthouse at 536 E 13th St sits atop a sleek, boutique six-story condominium (11 units, built 2016). The two-bedroom, one-bath layout unfolds with a luminous living room punctuated by oversized casement windows that draw in daylight and frame the city beyond. Slide into your chef’s kitchen featuring Italian cabinetry, a massive marble island, and pro-grade appliances from Liebherr, Bosch and Bertazzoni. Refined doesn’t even begin to describe it: 9-foot ceilings, wide-plank oak floors, custom doorways, and an ambiance that blends comfort with high design. The primary bedroom is a quiet retreat; the spa-style bath is clad in Bianco Dolomiti, Sivec and grey-velvet tiles, paired with premium fixtures by Toto and Zuma. Imagine stepping out to your 600+ sq ft private rooftop terrace—a rare outdoor space in Manhattan that becomes your elevated sanctuary, perfect for quiet mornings or vibrant evenings in the skyline. In-unit washer/dryer, central A/C, vented cooktop and a dedicated 70 sq ft storage room round out the practical luxuries. Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, Target, and subway lines are all within reach. Building amenities include elevator access, video intercom, pet-friendly policy and flexibility for rentals or pied-à-terre usage. Whether you’re an owner-occupier seeking a stylish downtown sanctuary with outdoor space, an investor hunting high-rent potential with smart use flexibility, or a savvy pied-à-terre buyer looking to claim your spot in Manhattan—this is that rare find.
