Property Description for 242 East 25th Street, 3-B

Welcome to 242 East 25th Street #3B in Kips Bay! This property is a pristine 1 bedroom/1 bathroom home, with a pin-drop quiet view of the back garden. Located between Second and Third Avenues, this apartment has it all! 242 East 25th Street is a well-run condop - a coop with condo rules - and permits investors, co-purchasing, guarantors, pied-a-terre use, pets, immediate subletting, and no board interview is required!

We know you're looking for that perfect apartment: one that mixes privacy, comfort, and useability, and that's exactly what you'll find in this apartment. As you enter, the foyer welcomes you with a large walk-in closet and the beautiful plank hardwood flooring which runs throughout the space. The modern chef's kitchen features a large breakfast bar that overlooks the living area and is handsomely outfitted with granite countertops, a Frigidaire dishwasher, glass mosaic tile backsplash, and stainless-steel appliances from LG and Frigidaire. Next to the kitchen is your washer/dryer closet, with a full-sized stacked Bosch unit. The apartment's bathroom has Barre gray marble countertops and is accented with honed Indian grey porcelain tile. It is equipped with luxurious Hansgrohe and Watermark fixtures.

The living room, stretching 19 feet long, has enough useable space for a full-size living room and separate home office! Overlooking the treetops, you'll get sun-blasted by southern light. The custom built-in shades provide relief during the day and privacy at night. The through-the-wall unit provides efficient heat and air conditioning and is controlled by the smart Nest thermostats, separated into 2 zones.

The large bedroom, stretching 15 feet, can easily accommodate a queen- or king-sized bed, and has the same treetop southern exposure as the living room. Custom black-out shades in this room make it the perfect place to lay your head down at night. The spacious bedroom closet has enough room for your complete wardrobe and more!

The building includes a state of the art fitness center, laundry room, bike storage, common storage, and a gorgeous roof deck with spectacular views!

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.
