Description

Welcome home to 264 Lexington Avenue, Residence 1D—a charming pre-war, ultra-quiet one-bedroom apartment with a windowed home office/nursery and a massive private backyard, a rare luxury typically reserved for townhouse owners. Residence 1D features all the coveted details that make pre-war homes so desirable: soaring 9’5” beamed ceilings, elegant moldings, a separate foyer, and beautiful hardwood floors throughout. As you enter, you’re greeted by a gracious foyer adorned with a designer light fixture overhead and a coat closet to the left. The spacious living room comfortably accommodates both lounging and dining areas and features two oversized windows that bathe the space in natural light throughout the day. The all-white, windowed galley kitchen includes a gas range, ample storage, and a breakfast bar—perfect for your morning coffee or tea. The primary bedroom features two windows, designer lighting, and easily accommodates various furniture layouts. An additional room with a large window offers the perfect space for a home office or nursery. The windowed bathroom retains many original pre-war details, including the classic tub and subway tiles with black borders. From the primary bedroom, step out to your own private oasis: a south-facing, enormous backyard—an entertainer’s dream with multiple areas for dining, lounging, and gardening. A coveted and rare luxury to have in the heart of the city. Residence 1D is exceptionally peaceful and quiet, located at the rear and side of the building, completely removed from street traffic. 264 Lexington Avenue is a beautiful and intimate pre-war brick co-op built in 1923, consisting of 35 apartments across 11 floors. Amenities include a live-in super, part-time doorman, ButterflyMX video intercom system, a stunning newly renovated lobby, and an incredible rooftop outfitted with a BBQ grill, sofas, loungers, dining tables, landscaping, and panoramic views of the Chrysler Building, Empire State Building, and beyond. Additional building amenities include storage and laundry facilities in the basement. Perfectly situated just two blocks from the 6 train, the building offers convenient access to multiple subway lines, buses, and Citi Bike stations. Located in the heart of Murray Hill, it’s close to fantastic shopping, grocery stores, the New York Public Library, The Morgan Library, and Grand Central Station.
