Location good, building meh
Former Tenant
Pros:
Classic Manhattan walk-up, renovated only when necessary but with the old charm of living between SoHo and Greenwich Village. Functional, clean-ish and well situated.
Cons:
Old kitchen appliances and bathroom, lack of light in living room and one of the bedrooms. Not all appartements are renovated the same so make sure you don’t overpay for an old one! Plumbing noises when heating is on can be loud, but that’s inevitable in old NY buildings.
Advice to owner:
Renovate the bathrooms in priority and kitchens too.
