Helix Partners expects its handsome condominium apartment building at 331 East 8th Street to be ready for occupancy in March.
According to Rob Gross of Prudential Douglas Elliman, the building has five units and has recently sold out at prices ranging from about $1,275,000 to a little more than $2 million.
Designed by Kutnicki Bernstein Architects, the property is adjacent of one of the wonderful large community gardens in the East Village. It is distinguished by its brightly colored facade that is composed of Trespa, a material that can be treated to look like wood or metal.
The building has a duplex garden apartment and a duplex penthouse and three full-floor units. The apartments on the second and third floors have balconies. The building has key lock elevator access and a video intercom system. The kitchens have Pietra Cardoza countertops, Sub-Zero refrigerators, Bosch dishwashers and Dacor microwaves.
The mid-block building is between Avenues B and C. The quiet, tree-lined street has an interesting mix of buildings. The gray-stucco building at 325 has large inset balconies while the red-brick building at 327 has blue fire escapes. The five-story red-brick buildings at 337 and 337B have very attractive deep blue tile entrance surrounds and handsome stainless steel first floor window grills.
One of the city's nicest police facilities, Police Service Area 4, a two-tone gray-brick structure in the banded stripe style of Mario Botta, is on the northeast corner of Avenue D and 8th Street and the southwest corner at that intersection is the very handsome Art Deco-style yellow and red brick 7-story Eastville Gardens apartment building.
There is good cross-town bus transportation two blocks to the north on Tenth Street and this East Village location is convenient to Tompkins Square Park.
