Property Description for 245 East 25th Street, 11-F

Welcome Home! This rarely available, south & west facing, sun-filled and incredibly spacious, already converted 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath home, perched high on the 11th floor, is a beautiful place to call home. With more closets than you will ever need, there is a huge living room with a wall of south facing windows and a designated dining area; a king-sized, south-facing master bedroom suite with two walk-in closets and master bath; a windowed kitchen with stainless appliances that can be opened if you choose, plus an adorable second bedroom which was converted, but has both south and western exposures and landmark views. Sunny all day this wonderful home also features HVAC units in each room for heat and A/C, plus beautiful, dark, hardwood floors throughout and plenty of living space as well as a half bath. Spruce Ridge is a pristine 24 Hr. doorman, pet friendly building, with a live-in resident manager, a bright and clean, card operated laundry room and a fantastic Roof Deck with jaw dropping city and river views. When Fourth of July is on the East River, you will have a front row view. East 25th Street is a lovely, residential block in prime Kips Bay, a lively, convenient neighborhood, just two blocks north of Gramercy, that has it all from Trader Joes, Fairway, even a D'Agostinos right at the end of the block, to a variety of shops, restaurants, pubs and The AMC Theater all right there. In just a one block radius on Third Avenue between 24th & 25th St., there is a supermarket, three pubs, a bagel shop, a pizza parlor, a diner, a wine store, a deli, a health food store, and two restaurants. Why leave the neighborhood? Also, Spruce Ridge is perfectly situated between two express bus stops on either avenue, and very close to the 6, R & W subway lines, Madison Square Park, Union Square, Grand Central and so more. Sorry, no pied-a-terres or co-purchasing permitted. Subletting is permitted after two years of residence for up to three out of every five years. Temporary assessment of $147 until commercial space is rented.

Kips Bay | Manhattan

Quick Profile

If you take a walk through Kips Bay, which is loosely defined as the area between 23rd street and 34th street and the East River to almost Lexington, you’ll quickly learn it's a hodgepodge of sorts and not as well defined as other neighborhoods in New York City. Some New Yorkers say Kips Bay has an identity crisis because 1st, 2nd, and 3rd avenues are distinctly different from one another as you traverse them. Despite the perceived lack of neighborhood vibe there are others that appreciate its affordability and convenience.  

First Avenue is dominated by hospitals and hospital buildings such as NYU Medical Center and Bellevue Hospital to name a few. Second Avenue is a mosaic of convenience stores, fast food joints and nondescript brick buildings. Third Avenue is saturated with small bars and gastropubs and the twenty somethings that patronize them. 

No judgement against Kips Bay here. It’s a great neighborhood that is just as much a part of New York City as any other neighborhood. Kips Bay It’s bordered by Murray Hill to the North, Stuyvesant Town and Gramercy Park to the South, and Rose Hill to the West. The neighborhood is partly defined by newer high-rise apartments, brick rowhouses, and former tenement buildings.
