Located at 48 Allen Street in the Lower East Side, this seven story prewar building has been converted into a boutique condominium with 17 residential units spanning floors 2 through 7, plus two retail spaces on the ground floor. The building maintains an intimate scale with a maximum of four apartments per floor, ensuring privacy for residents while offering a mix of studios, one bedrooms, two bedrooms, and penthouse homes.
The residences range significantly in size from 430 to 1,345 square feet, with studios like units 2A and 4C occupying 435 square feet each. The standout unit is 6A Penthouse, a 1,345 square foot duplex with two bedrooms and two bathrooms that claims the distinction of being both the largest unit and situated on the highest floor of the building. Unit 5A offers a middle ground at 883 square feet with one bedroom and two full bathrooms.
All units feature European kitchens equipped with Bosch stainless steel appliances, Alta Cucina cabinetry, and Porcelanosa hardwood flooring throughout. The comprehensive appliance package includes refrigerator, electric range, dishwasher, ventilation hood, and microwave oven in every residence. However, in unit washer and dryer hookups are limited to just three units: 5A, 6A, and 6B, with all dryers being electric and ventless models.
The building incorporates modern conveniences including a virtual doorman system and maintains several shared amenities on the seventh floor. Residents have access to two common roof terraces, a communal laundry room with complimentary washers and dryers, and bicycle storage in the cellar. A package room on the ground floor handles deliveries, while penthouse owners receive the added benefit of exclusive cellar storage space.
Positioned in the heart of the Lower East Side, the building represents a conversion that balances prewar character with contemporary living. The marketing emphasizes its appeal to first time buyers, though the range of unit sizes and the inclusion of duplex penthouses suggests it caters to various lifestyle needs and budgets within the neighborhood's evolving residential landscape.
