631 E 9th Street #5B, New York City, NY 10009

Description

Set on a quiet, tree-lined block just off Tompkins Square Park, this loft-like two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence offers a rare combination of privacy, outdoor space, and refined modern living. A keyed private elevator opens directly into the apartment, creating a true sense of arrival and separation from the city below.

The living and dining area is expansive and naturally bright, framed by floor-to-ceiling windows and wide-plank maple flooring. With direct access to a private balcony, the main living space easily extends outdoors, whether for morning coffee, fresh air throughout the day, or relaxed evenings at home. The layout is open without feeling exposed, making it equally well suited to quiet daily living or entertaining.

Both bedrooms are positioned at opposite ends of the apartment, each with its own full bathroom, allowing for exceptional privacy and flexibility. The separation makes the home ideal for sharing, guests, or a dedicated work-from-home setup, while maintaining a calm, residential feel. Bathrooms feature thermostat-controlled radiant heated floors, reinforcing the home’s emphasis on comfort and thoughtful design.

In addition to the balcony, the apartment includes a private, enclosed rooftop cabana measuring approximately 280+/- square feet, offering open city views and a secluded outdoor retreat rarely found in the neighborhood. This space functions as a true extension of the home, providing a distinct setting for entertaining, working, or unwinding above the city.

The kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel Miele appliances, Knoll cabinetry, and high-end fixtures, designed to integrate seamlessly with the living space. A brand new Bosch washer and dryer are located within the apartment, and newly upgraded PTAC units with individual climate controls allow for customized comfort throughout. A separate large basement storage unit is included.

Property taxes shown reflect the NYC co-op and condo property tax abatement for primary residency. Nominal property taxes, without the abatement, are $942.33 per month.
