Overview of Hearth House at 50 Avenue A

Hearth House is a boutique condop at 50 Avenue A in the East Village, situated between East 3rd and 4th Streets near Tompkins Square Park and the F train at Second Avenue. The elevator building contains approximately 16 to 17 residences and offers flexible ownership policies including subletting, pied-Ă -terre use, and 90% financing.

The apartments share several distinctive features, most notably wood burning fireplaces and generous private outdoor spaces. Multiple units feature terraces ranging from 880 to 950 square feet, with east facing exposures overlooking a limestone Baroque Romanesque cathedral and surrounding gardens. Solariums appear in several layouts, providing additional light filled living space. Renovated kitchens typically include high end appliances from brands like Sub-Zero, Wolf, Miele, Liebherr, and Thermador, while in-unit washer/dryers are standard throughout.

The building's penthouse units are particularly notable, including a triplex with a top floor greenhouse and multi-tiered roof deck, and another penthouse with a 900 square foot private roof deck and views of midtown Manhattan. Typical layouts offer two bedrooms and two to two and a half bathrooms, with some combination units reaching 1,950 square feet. Common interior features include hardwood floors, renovated bathrooms with luxury fixtures from Waterworks and Herbeau, and ample closet space with built in systems.

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "prime East Village" gem, housed in a "turn-of-the-century conversion," offers "incredibly flexible" living arrangements in a "laid-back" atmosphere. The "professionally evolving" condop sits "just steps from Tompkins Square Park" and neighborhood hot spots, while maintaining a "notably relaxed" approach to ownership rules. Though maintenance runs "on the higher side," the building's "prime location" and "condo-like flexibility" make it an attractive option for various living arrangements. "Easy access" to Houston Street transportation adds to the appeal of this "historically charming" residence.
