BRIGHT MINT ALCOVE STUDIO

Newly renovated oversized alcove studio enjoys a 21 foot expanse and sunny corner exposures, with serene rear garden views to the South and open views North and West across tree-lined 38th Street. The living room has a square layout that easily accommodates multiple living arrangements and has a king-sized sleeping alcove. The windowed kitchen is outfitted with ceiling-height lacquered cabinetry and stainless appliances including a counter depth refrigerator, gas range and dishwasher. The subway tile bathroom with adjacent dressing room is also windowed. Additional niceties include high ceilings, designer light fixtures and wonderful storage from a pantry and three double wide closets with interior lighting, including one in the living room that can be repurposed as a home office or entertainment nook (see image with television).

Perfectly located in the heart of Midtown, in the historic Murray Hill district, this intimate mid-century modern cooperative of 40 apartments has dual entry video intercom security, a live-in superintendent who accepts packages, central laundry, bicycle and private cage storage (fee). In addition to recently completing a comprehensive exterior capital improvements project including roof replacement, pointing and siding, the building has a new elevator and is now wired for FiOS.

Shareholders covet their proximity to Grand Central Station and the Midtown Tunnel, the East River Walk and St. Vartan Park’s playground, tennis, handball and basketball courts, as well as Loews Kips Bay IMAX, and many of the city’s finest restaurants, boutiques and grocers, including Fairway Market and Trader Joe’s. Guarantors, co-purchasing, pied-a-terre ownership and pets permitted.
