Description
Renovated by world-renowned architects at LOT-EK, Residence #5 at 533 East 6th Street presents a thoughtfully reimagined home distinguished by its architectural pedigree and scale within a classic East Village HDFC cooperative.
Originally configured as a two-bedroom, this approximately 1,100 square foot residence has been transformed into a singular, design-driven one-bedroom with one and a half baths with laundry room. The layout prioritizes flow and openness, with expansive living and kitchen areas positioned at either end of the home, allowing for a sense of volume rarely found at this price point. Ceiling heights feel generous throughout, complemented by clean lines, exposed brick, and a working fireplace that anchors the living space.
At the center of the residence, a pair of sculptural corridors--constructed from reclaimed steel--organize the home's core functions while preserving openness at both the front and rear. One corridor discreetly integrates the primary bath, storage, and laundry, while the other introduces a dramatic dining area with built-in seating and custom detailing. The result is a home that balances utility with architectural intent, offering distinct zones without sacrificing continuity.
The open kitchen is configured for both daily use and entertaining, featuring stainless steel cabinetry, a service island, gas range, dishwasher, and in-unit washer/dryer. Storage has been carefully considered and integrated throughout.
The primary bedroom is extra large with exposed brick, 5 large windows with excellent soft northern light, access to a planters balcony, and a beautiful treetop view.
This HDFC cooperative offers low monthly carrying costs and permits up to 80% financing. Pets are allowed. A 1% flip tax is paid by the purchaser. Income restrictions apply for incoming buyers. The building has 6 units, includes a common garden, shared laundry, and private basement storage cages. The building has good financials and engaged shareholders that actively maintain the property allowing for consistently low maintenance.
Positioned on a great street with two gardens, the building is just minutes from Tompkins Square Park. The location offers immediate access to open green space alongside the East Village's established dining and cultural landscape. Residence 5 presents a rare opportunity for a design-oriented buyer seeking scale, intention, and long-term value within a well-located cooperative.
