3-bedroom condo for sale in Lower East Side

165 Chrystie is a boutique 10-story condominium set at the crossroads of the Lower East Side and downtown Manhattan. Directly across from Sara D. Roosevelt Park, the building offers a rare sense of openness in the city, with park greenery and the surrounding skyline in view.

The Penthouse unit offers a unique opportunity to own over 3300 square feet of interior space across two floors plus a private 550 square foot roof terrace. The possibilities are endless.

The main living level unfolds around two distinct wings. The west wing offers an expansive great room, with generous space to settle in, gather with friends or host game night. It is framed by floor to ceiling windows and opens onto a private balcony with open views to the north and south.

The east wing offers an open Cesar kitchen which connects naturally to a formal dining area with comfortable seating for 10 or more, while a separate seating enclave creates a more intimate place for conversation or a quiet moment away from the main gathering.

The kitchen combines rich smoked oak cabinetry with an oversized island, white-veined crystal quartzite countertops and matching backsplashes. Dornbracht fixtures and a suite of integrated Miele appliances-including a 36-inch refrigerator, five-burner gas cooktop, speed oven, dishwasher and wine cooler-complete the space. A full bathroom adds convenience to the entertaining floor.

At the center of main level, an architectural glass encased staircase leads up to the private roof terrace and down to the sleeeping quarters. The private 550-square-foot roof terrace, offers an exceptional outdoor retreat perched above the city. With sweeping views east and downtown, the terrace takes in the Brooklyn Bridge and One World Trade Center, along with the surrounding skyline. There is ample room to create separate areas for dining, lounging and entertaining, with the open sky and city views as a remarkable backdrop.

Set apart from the entertaining spaces the bedroom level offers a more private, restful setting. The primary suite is especially spacious, with an eastern wall of glass, room for a sitting area and an oversized walk-in closet. Its ensuite bath is wrapped in Bianco Dolomite marble, with radiant-heated floors and a wet room that brings together an oversized shower and deep soaking tub. A double vanity, Robern medicine cabinets, Waterworks fixtures and a wall-hung Toto toilet complete the spa-like space.

Two additional bedrooms sit on the opposite side of the floor each with generous closet space; one opens to its own balcony. A full bathroom with doube sinks and extra deep soaking tub nearby serves the secondary bedrooms. The floor also includes a vented washer-dryer and separate utility room. Multi-zone heating and cooling allows each area of the home to be adjusted for comfort. The apartment also comes with an approx 30 ft private storage room.

Beyond the building, the neighborhood brings together everyday essentials and downtown destinations.
