Move right in and enjoy this bright, sparkling, partially furnished studio apartment that has been recently converted to a junior 1 bedroom with contemporary finishes and tons of prewar charm! Enter the gracious foyer of this serene home and notice the beamed high ceilings, large casement windows, and hardwood floors artfully blended with the creature comforts of a modern renovation with custom cabinetry, new appliances, updated electrical including USB outlets, and induction-heat cook top. The furnishings include a lovely built-in queen bed with custom built-in closets/storage and a dining table with seating. The apartment is flooded with beautiful northern light and wide open city views and a windowed bath.

140 East 40th is a charming, boutique prewar coop nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in a great location where Murray Hill meets midtown, just 2 blocks from Grand Central and near all transportation, great restaurants, shopping, Hampton Jitney stop, airport shuttle bus, Trader Joe’s, and lots of great food shopping options. This art deco masterpiece was designed in 1930 by Bien & Prince, the same architects who designed the Carlyle Hotel. The building features handsomely renovated elevators, central laundry, bike storage, a live-in super who takes packages, an attended lobby 7 days a week, and a wonderful roof deck with breathtaking views of the Empire State Building. Please note: 1-year minimum lease term, renewable, and sorry, no pets or shares. Also note this is a coop and requires a board application and interview. E-mail listing agent to schedule a showing. This is a rare opportunity that will not last!
