About This Property

There's something especially appealing about having room to spread out in New York City, particularly when that space comes with beautiful Manhattan skyline and East River views. 555 Main Street, Apartment 1514 at Island House is a fully renovated, move-in ready, three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom duplex with a washer & dryer and external storage space - offering generous proportions, abundant natural light, and a thoughtful two-level layout that makes everyday living remarkably comfortable.

The main level features a bright living room with sweeping city and river views, an open, windowed kitchen with stone countertops, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a generous breakfast bar. A separate dining area, equally suited as a den or additional sitting room, adds flexibility. Downstairs, all three bedrooms are comfortably separated from the main living spaces, including a spacious primary bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. Beautifully renovated bathrooms, hardwood floors, excellent closet space, and an in-unit washer/dryer complete this move-in-ready home.

Island House, an established Roosevelt Island co-op at 555 Main Street, offers 24-hour doorman service, a fitness center, landscaped courtyard, bike storage, laundry facilities, and additional resident amenities. Residents also have the option of accessing the neighboring Westview indoor pool for a modest annual fee.

Roosevelt Island waterfront living offers something genuinely different: beautiful parks, waterfront walking and biking paths, neighborhood conveniences, and a wonderful sense of community, all remarkably close to Manhattan. With the subway, iconic Roosevelt Island Tram, NYC Ferry, and free island Red Bus, getting around is easy. It's a little more room to live, with the city right at your doorstep.

Agent's Note

From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Corcoran Group.

Stone countertops, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar make up the kitchen, and it's open and windowed, so cooking doesn't close you off from the rest of the home. A dishwasher is part of the setup too, and I think that's one of the everyday conveniences that earns its place in a home like this.

The main level has a bright living room with sweeping city and river views. The breakfast bar gives you a place to eat or work beside the cooking. The separate dining area can serve as a den or an extra sitting room, which makes the layout easy to adapt.

Downstairs, all three bedrooms are set apart from the living spaces, and the primary bedroom has an en-suite bathroom. The bathrooms have been renovated, the floors are hardwood, and the closet space is excellent. External storage gives you room for things that don't need to live in the apartment.

Island House has an elevator, on-site management, a gym, a sauna, a resident lounge, a children's playroom, a courtyard, outdoor grills and a bike room. A washer and dryer are inside the unit, so laundry doesn't depend on the building's shared room. Roosevelt Island station on the M is about 7 minutes on foot, East River Walk is about 5 minutes away, and Foodtown is about 6 minutes, so the everyday errands are close by.
