157 East 32nd Street, 18-D

THE APARTMENT: Welcome to apartment 18-D, a lovely alcove studio complete with private balcony, at L’Isola Condominium. This bright and cheery home sits high above the action on the 18th floor and faces north, allowing plentiful light to fill the space throughout the day. Captivating views are the perfect backdrop whether in the home or on the balcony, and the Chrysler Building, which is visible in all its glory, is all the art you’d ever need. Back inside, the space proves to be as functional as it is beautiful, with a tucked away pass-through kitchen, and a deep sleeping alcove. This configuration, along with the positioning of the large wall of windows, offers ease of separation of space to create a one-bedroom feel. This home has no shortage of storage, with three large closets for maximum organization. 18-D is just one of four apartments on the 18th floor, offering a private intimate feel, and the perfect place to call home. THE BUILDING: The L’Isola features a full-time doorman, resident-only gym and sauna, and a charming rear patio garden. The building is very well maintained, with covered entry, grand lobby, upgraded hallways, and laundry facilities within the building. THE LOCATION: The building is Ideally located at the crossroads of Kips Bay and Murray Hill and offers very easy access to the subway on Park Ave, the Midtown Tunnel and Grand Central. Tons of great restaurants and shops are just outside the front door, including a Trader Joe’s just around the corner.
