Description

With sunny Southern exposures spanning the entire apartment, 305 East 40th Street, 8M is a true diamond in Midtown, with low monthly maintenance. This generously sized alcove studio features beautiful design elements such as white lacquered closet doors with brushed gold handles and complementary fixtures throughout. The foyer features three oversized closets maximized with excellent storage solutions, as well as ample room for a home office. A gracious kitchen is perfectly outfitted with ample cabinetry and provides easy access to the expansive and bright living and dining areas. The oversized alcove can be converted into a true bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and pass-through closet, though keeping the space open allows for sunlight to flood the entire home. Meticulously kept and warmly designed, 8M is an absolute must-see. The Hamilton at 305 East 40th Street is a 21 story, 359 unit luxury full service building with strong financials. Built in 1962 and converted to a cooperative in 1983, The Hamilton features wonderful staff including a 24 hour doorman and concierge, landscaped roof deck, garage, bicycle room, laundry room, central heating and AC, and resident manager. Guarantors, co-purchasing, pied-a-terres, and subletting are all permitted with board approval. Financing up to 75% is allowed. Sorry, pets are not permitted.
