LOFT-LIKE ALCOVE STUDIO WITH CORNER TERRACE
Coveted oversized alcove studio, one of only three apartments in the building with private outdoor space, enjoys sunny open exposures West and North across tree-lined 38th Street. The large square-shaped living room easily accommodates multiple living arrangements and is adjacent to a king-sized sleeping alcove. Both the kitchen and marble and subway tile bath are windowed. The kitchen is outfitted with a mirrored backsplash, stainless appliances and plentiful storage, including a pantry. A dishwasher may be added with board approval.
Closets have been reimagined with Elfa shelving and storage, including a home office with desk off the entrance gallery and an expansive open dressing room. The twenty foot corner terrace with charming brick facade is the perfect spot for al fresco dining. Additional niceties include high ceilings, white oak hardwood floors and blackout window treatments.
Located in the heart of Midtown, in the historic Murray Hill district, this intimate mid-century modern cooperative of 40 apartments has an elegant terrazzo stone lobby, dual entry video intercom security, live-in superintendent who accepts packages, central laundry, bicycle and private cage storage (fee). The building has completed major capital improvement projects including a new elevator and laundry room and is now wired for FiOS.
