Condo, 253 E 7TH Street #TH, Lower East Side - Real Estate New York

Description

253 East 7th Street is a modern architectural statement by acclaimed NYC firm Isaac & Stern. This boutique condominium is nestled in the East Village's Alphabet City, directly beside a serene community garden.

At its heart lies an expansive 550 sq. ft. private garden, professionally designed by Amber Freda. Once bare earth, the space has been transformed into a lush retreat that seamlessly extends into the neighboring community garden. Shade-tolerant plantings thrive here, complemented by a custom powder-coated pergola with integrated fan, a bluestone dining area, and a separate lounge anchored by a clean-burning fire pit. High-end outdoor furnishings-including a concrete dining table for six, bench seating, and a full suite of lounge furniture-are all included in the sale. For year-round enjoyment, the garden is outfitted with irrigation, uplighting, mosquito control, and retractable glass wall screens for seamless indoor-outdoor living.

Inside, custom millwork elevates the main living spaces. A bespoke workstation blends into the design with a polished Vanilla Onyx marble desk surface, suede backsplash, and a balance of open shelving and closed cabinetry in warm espresso tones. Nearby, a striking white oak bar and bookcase with fluted detailing, brass hardware, and a dramatic Leather White Mountain Quartzite backsplash adds sophistication and functionality.

The custom oak staircase, detailed with vertical slats and a sculptural light fixture, leads to the upper level. Here, you will find both bedrooms. The second bedroom which is currently configured as a lounge - office showcases bold green-and-gold graphic wallpaper and a fully custom white oak desk and shelving system with integrated lighting and hidden wiring.This space can easily function as a second bedroom, studio, or retreat.

With its cohesive design language, intentional craftsmanship, and rare indoor-outdoor lifestyle, this residence offers a highly curated living experience in one of downtown's most vibrant neighborhoods.
