Building: 136 Suffolk Street

Built in 2001, Suffolk Homes Condominium is a 48 unit townhome style condominium located in a prime location just 3 blocks away from the FM/JZ subway stop and right in the middle of everything the Lower East Side has to offer. However, because it is situated on a quiet tree lined street with minimal traffic it is an oasis away from the nightlife scene.

Suffolk Homes offers a beautiful secure, private tree-lined garden available for barbecues, playtime with children or pets, or just plain lounging outdoors.

There are two buildings, one on Stanton Street with 3BR / 2BA units and one on Suffolk St with 2BR / 1BA units. There are four unique layouts. A unit apartment homes feature private entrances, backdoors that open up to the garden, and private outdoor space. B unit apartment homes are on the second floor have private entrances and feature single floor layouts with the living area in front and bedrooms looking out into the garden. C and D units are duplex apartment homes on the top two floors with just two unit owners sharing an entryway. The living areas are downstairs, with bedrooms above, and a full staircase connecting the two areas. All C and D units feature a small outdoor terrace.

The building offers some of the lowest common charges in Manhattan and low taxes due to an abatement that, although expired in 2011, has not yet reached market rates.
