Property Description for 320 East 42nd Street, 701

This luminous and spacious renovated corner studio (convertible one bedroom) is located in the heart of Tudor City at Woodstock Tower, an esteemed landmarked full-service cooperative within a secluded enclave of historic pre-war structures and serene parks. A true sanctuary on the seventh floor hovering just above the lush trees, this beautiful residence showcases five timeless wrought iron windows that frame enchanting vistas of a landmark park, plentiful sky, and offering glimpses of the East River.

This lovely home features a large welcoming foyer and spacious living and dining areas. Here, meticulously restored original hardwood floors and gracefully beamed ceilings radiate the charm of a bygone era, while the restored original windows look out over the park's verdant surroundings. The separate windowed kitchen is graced with herringbone hardwood floors and a full suite of LG stainless steel appliances. Among them, a 30” French door refrigerator with a pull-drawer freezer, a 30” electric range and oven, and a dishwasher. A herringbone marble backsplash and quartz countertops provide a touch of opulence, while integrated recessed lighting lends a contemporary allure.

The bright and airy corner bedroom sleeping area is thoughtfully separated by custom (and movable) floor-to-ceiling Vitsoe shelving. A classic bathroom showcases meticulous tilework, a shower-tub combination, and a medicine cabinet. Storage solutions abound with the built-out walk-in closet and coat closet, each adorned with Vitsoe shelving that allow for substantial storage.

The Woodstock Tower is a pre-war, landmarked full service building that was built in 1929 by Fred F. French. The 459 residence building was originally constructed for pied-a-terre rentals and a hotel but was later converted to cooperative apartments in 1980. Amenities include newly renovated hallways & elevators, central laundry, live-in super, fitness center, and a beautiful private courtyard garden. The building welcomes pets and gifting to income producing buyers however, pied-à-terre, co-purchasing, and guarantors will require board approval. The Woodstock Tower is located above 42nd Street, between 1st and 2nd Avenues, and is close to a transportation hub with numerous bus services, Grand Central Station, and easy access to FDR highway, bridges, and tunnels.

Tudor City | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Compared to other New York City neighborhoods Tudor City is a bit different. For starters, it's not very big. And technically it's not a neighborhood, it's more along the lines of a residential enclave of Tudor style buildings and parks. Even with the large neon sign boldly exclaiming the enclave's name, Tudor CIty is still a little tricky to find. 

Located on the southern edge of Turtle Bay, Tudor City borders Murray Hill and lies on a low cliff which is just east of Second Avenue between 40th and 43rd Street. It overlooks the grounds of the United Nations along First Avenue and the East River beyond.

Tudor City is considered one of the world’s first skyscraper apartment complexes. This was considered a remarkable feat in 1929. Early marketing material, aimed at the middle class, described the development as well-planned, well-built, and well-priced housing. Developer Fred F. Finch designed Tudor City to keep middle class residents in Manhattan as many were fleeing the city for the suburbs.
