a little new one this week at 808 Broadway
nice things in small loft packages
There are 700 well-used square feet in Unit 3N at The Renwick, 808 Broadway, being offered for sale at $895k (and $1,201/mo). They must be seen for their engineering efficiency, if for no other reason. For people looking for the one-bedroom-plus, or the one-bedroom+nursery may find their answer here.
The space has 11 ft ceilings and even the pictures are narrow. But it appears to have been designed “by architect/owner” with ship-like economy and utility. It has enough room for a ‘state of the art’ kitchen, an ‘unusual amount of storage and closet space’ (with only 700 feet to use, any amount could be unusual), and two bedrooms with moving walls (i.e., probably not the set-up for you and your teenager).
architect/owner is proud of her/his work
This is priced with a healthy premium for the architect/owner’s work and vision. I can’t find any closed sale prices in this building, but most units that have traded here in the last two years have traded off of asking prices at or under $1,000/ft; the closest asking price per foot to this one was PH-C, which sold in December 2005 off an ask of $1.75mm for 1,400 sq ft ($1,250/ft); the other highs for the building were penthouses with asking prices of $1.142 and $1,071/ft last April and in May 2005.
lovely, okay, but “spacious”?
Did I mention that Abigail Agranat at PruDE says it ‘exudes calm and tranquility’ (again, no teenager), is ‘triple mint’ and has been ‘published’? I just don’t know if I would call it “spacious”…. But then, I haven’t seen it yet. But it is New This Week.
