Property Description

Once home to Miguel Algarín, founder of the legendary Nuyorican Poets Café, this enchanting apartment is rich with history and quintessential East Village character. Soaring 10-foot original tin ceilings crown the space, while two glorious oversized arched windows flood the home with natural light. The living room and bedroom area feature original parquet floors, and heavy custom wood shutters add warmth and authenticity.

A long, thoughtfully laid-out hallway offers exceptional storage, including a massive walk-in closet designed to satisfy all your organizational needs. Currently configured as a junior one-bedroom, the alcove provides a cozy cocoon for restful nights and features a charming home office nook or the perfect spot for a statement piece.

The kitchen is generously sized, and the bathroom-positioned at the rear of the apartment-enjoys incredible southern light all day long, with serene views overlooking the coops private lush, English-style garden. The home is move-in ready in its fantastical, artist-inspired state, or ripe for reimagining into your dream East Village retreat.

524 East 6th Street is a small, intimate boutique HDFC co-op with low monthly maintenance of $832. Income restrictions apply: $232,000 maximum for a single occupant, and the apartment must be used as a primary residence. Shared laundry is in basement. Perfectly located next to multiple Community Gardens on a special East Village block, just moments from Tompkins Square Park, Citi Bike docking stations, and all the neighborhood’s beloved culture and cuisine.
