"The penthouse paradise you've been waiting for"

Last Friday, we featured a seemingly swank penthouse on 50 Avenue A for $1.3 million... Well, hope that you didn't quickly squander your money on that dump... the REAL Avenue A penthouse is, apparently, at 107 Avenue A on the west side near Seventh Street ...

Per the new listing at Trulia (Halstead is peddling the space):

This East Village loft is the penthouse paradise you've been waiting for. Situated just off Tompkins Square Park in the red hot East Village, this rare apartment features three terraces, including one of the best outdoor decks in all of the East Village with a hot tub and breathtaking views of the park and city. The entire apartment has been gut renovated with an unparalleled attention to detail, including a chef's kitchen with high-end appliances and two bathrooms, one with a soaking tub and the second with a steam shower. The elevator opens directly onto the first floor of the loft, which features a laundry room, two bathrooms, a large living room / dining gallery, east and west terraces, and a spacious master bedroom with walk in closet. The second floor doubles as a gorgeous sunroom, guest bedroom, or den/office. Situated on Avenue A, across the street from Tompkins Square Park, this is the one of the trendiest downtown locations with the best restaurants and bars, nightlife, and more literally around the corner. This rare home will not last.

Hoo-boy.








The first open house is Sunday. Price tag: $1.995 million.
