RARE ALCOVE STUDIO WITH CORNER TERRACE

Coveted oversized alcove studio, one of three apartments in the building with private outdoor space, enjoys sunny open exposures West and North across tree-lined 38th Street. The large, square living room 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. Closets have been reimagined with Elfa shelving and storage, including an expansive dressing room and a home office with desk at the entrance. 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.

Ideally situated 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.
