140 Eighth Ave. #5P

NEW ON THE MARKET: A rarely available 3 bedroom 1 bath corner apartment on the fifth floor of 140 Eighth Avenue – a full-service, iconic Art Deco building. Apartment 5P was renovated by the current owner to include an updated chef’s kitchen, a gut-renovated bathroom, additional closet space and, most importantly, the creation of a third bedroom.

Quiet and private, the apartment is filled with light from three exposures. Perfect for entertaining, you’ll be welcomed into the generous open living and dining. Walk through a sweeping arch into the extra-large sunny living room which can easily accommodate double sofas as well as a home office or a large play space for the kids. The dining room is open to the kitchen and is ideal for hosting a large dinner party. The renovated kitchen has room to spare with granite counters, solid wood cabinets, stainless appliances and is filled with light from the double windows. Follow the arches past the lovely built-in bookcase and you’ll find 3 well-apportioned bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms have tree-lined views of Fiske Place and are serene sanctuaries. The gut-renovated windowed black and white bathroom has a Toto toilet, medicine cabinet, in-wall shower shelf and mounted storage cabinet. The apartment is newly painted and has 9’ ceilings, honey blond parquet hardwood floors and seven generous closets to make this the perfect place to call home.
