About This Property

Amid the gleaming boxes of Manhattan where condos sell for north of $20 million dollars and a shoebox studio in a fifth floor walkup commands $500,000--lies this undiscovered architectural gem! In a 14-story Art Deco building, designed by the same team that built the Carlyle Hotel, lies a masterpiece of old-world charm. The building rivals its neighbors including the Chrysler and Empire State Buildings, amid other Art Deco masterpieces. Hidden inside is a pristine, original-condition junior one bedroom. The alcove is large enough for sleeping. A large picture casement window graces the living room. Peek to the right and see the East River; peek to the left and see the Hudson. Approximately 450 square feet of space makes this an ideal pied-a-terre for a Greenwich commuter who wishes to be near Grand Central, which is just around the corner. While 42nd and Lexington is regarded as the crossroads of the world, just two blocks away is this charming oasis. Ideal for an upwardly mobile executive or an occasional pied-a-terre. The building also features a beautiful roof deck with 36- degree views of Manhattan including the United Nations and some of the world's most iconic structures. Ideally located next to all subway and rail lines including just down the street the private bus to Southampton. NOTE OF CAUTION: If you are a cordon bleu chef, this is not your cup of tea. Kitchen is ideal for those who love take-out or a bottle of Courvoisier for dinner.
