Property Description for 201 East 28th Street, 2-D

BETTER THAN A 2 BEDROOM Bathed in beautiful morning light, this serenely quiet corner home has been brilliantly designed to maximize space and function without sacrificing style. Taking center stage is the renovated open kitchen with ample cabinetry including pantry storage, stainless appliances, quartz countertops and a breakfast bar. The living/dining room is grounded by bamboo floors and custom built-ins providing storage plus an additional computer-work station. Beyond pocket doors rests a corner bedroom with double closet and pretty natural light. There is an additional bedroom suite that provides 2 separate sleep areas (see both Current and Alternate floor plans) separated by a pocket door and transom allowing light and cross breeze to flow. There are 2 nicely renovated bathrooms; one full bath and the half bath with a huge linen closet. Throughout are generous closets, including a walk-in; all are outfitted with Elfa interiors. One of the remarkable qualities of this home, aside from peace and quiet, is that you have absolute privacy from neighbors. It’s a true oasis in the heart of downtown Manhattan. The Chesapeake House is a well-run Co-operative with a caring staff, including full-time doorman and resident Superintendent. This pet-friendly building also offers central laundry, parking garage and a planted roof deck with stunning iconic Manhattan views and plenty of seating and entertaining areas. A/C and heat are included in the maintenance. Kip’s Bay offers endless quality dining, shopping, marketing options making this a neighborhood to comfortably plant roots for years to come.

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.
