Escape from the bustle of the City to this cheerful, bright, and uplifting top-floor duplex with sizable roof terrace. In addition to the enticing rarity of the terrace, this unique home offers a beautiful renovation, a prime location just north of Gramercy Park, and open city views on both levels.

The spacious living room boasts high ceilings and appealing architectural views of the Lexington Avenue Armory across the street and the Empire State Building and MetLife Tower amid the skyline. Open to the living room, the renovated kitchen is thoughtfully laid out and includes stainless steel appliances and granite countertops.

Ascend the spiral staircase to the bedroom above, where a skylight provides abundant sunlight to both floors. In addition to the skylight, a window to the east and double-height glass doors to the west ensure that this room feels light and airy at any hour.

Through the glass doors, the private terrace, generously sized at 14 ft x 12 ft and able to accommodate a table, 4 chairs, and planting boxes, enjoys open sky and fascinating city views to the west.

This well-run Gramercy/ Murray Hill co-op features an elevator, intercom system, and laundry in the basement. Convenient to Union Square Park, Gramercy Park, wonderful dining, shopping, and transportation, the building is also pet-friendly.
