Incredible value in a full-service building just off of Park Avenue, blocks from Central Park. HUGE converted 2 bedroom that is ready for move-in.
You will be awe-struck by the sheer amount of space that apartment 3D offers. The living room is massive, offering an excellent layout for both living and dining. You can cook to your heart's delight with a kitchen that has been outfitted with abundant crisp white cabinetry and expansive countertop space. Your master bedroom is most definitely fit for a king, spanning nearly 19 feet! It affords plenty of furnishing options, including room for a home office. The second, windowed bedroom could also be used as the same, or perhaps a lovely guest room or nursery. All rooms have HVAC unit temperature controls. A marble bath with glass shower stall and excellent vanity storage completes the picture here. The apartment is pin-drop quiet and also offers FIVE phenomenal closets. Should you need a washer/dryer, the building allows for their installation.

Quick Profile
Midtown West and Midtown East have a lot in common. They’re bustling, iconic, and full of people. But just like siblings, their personalities can be vastly different. Midtown East is a bit more sophisticated and doesn’t quite have the vivacity and unruliness that its westerly counterpart exudes.
Midtown East is bordered by 42nd to the south, 59th Street to the north, 5th Avenue to the west, and 3rd Avenue to the east.
The neighborhood is famous for its high-end stores, tourist attractions, posh hotels (budget ones too), and iconic architecture. Midtown East is also one of the largest financial and business hubs in Manhattan. During normal business hours the sidewalks are full of commuters and people moving from point A to point B. In the early evening, when the masses have left for the day, things suddenly get a little quieter and the sidewalks have a lot less foot traffic.
Although largely a commercial neighborhood, residential areas of Midtown East do exist on the eastern section of the neighborhood.
Grand Central Station is located in Midtown East and like Midtown West, it’s an extremely commutable neighborhood. The 4, 5, 6, 7 and S trains whisk people in and out of the neighborhood 24 hours a day. Grand Central Station also serves as a hub for New York State and Connecticut commuter rails. These trains can take you anywhere along the Hudson River or up into Connecticut. It’s perfect for day tripping.
