Description

Modern Sophistication in Gramercy: Full-Floor 2-Bedroom with Private Elevator Entry Welcome to the 8th floor at 139 E 23rd Street—a sun-drenched, two-bedroom, two-bathroom home that seamlessly blends refined design with modern ease. Set in a boutique Gramercy condominium just steps from Gramercy Park and Madison Square Park, this full-floor residence offers privacy, elegance, and thoughtful amenities, including a virtual doorman, package room, bike storage, and a landscaped rooftop with sweeping skyline views. A private elevator opens to a light-filled living and dining space with wide-plank European oak floors, custom lighting, and curated finishes throughout—including Italian-crafted LEMA closets and Effebiquattro doors. The open kitchen is a striking showpiece with European oak cabinetry, bold Arabescato Vagli marble, integrated Miele appliances, and Fantini fixtures. Tucked away for quietude, both north-facing bedrooms offer a serene escape. The primary suite features a custom walk-in closet and a spa-inspired en-suite clad in Travertino Silver Roman marble, with a floating double vanity and rain shower. The second bath echoes the same elevated materials and detail. A flexible layout allows for the addition of a windowed home office or den. Additional features include a Miele washer/dryer, generous storage, and discreet linear air vents that preserve the home's clean architectural lines. Ideally positioned at the nexus of Gramercy, NoMad, Flatiron, and Chelsea—with effortless access to premier dining, boutique fitness, Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, and multiple subway lines—this residence is also just moments from the coveted greenery and charm of Gramercy Park. The 8th floor is where design, privacy, and location converge in perfect balance. This is a co-exclusive with Corcoran.
