Description

**Elegant Condominium in the Heart of Murray Hill** Nestled in the prestigious Bentley Condominium, this commodious 1-bedroom apartment boasts an additional home office space, which seamlessly doubles as a junior second bedroom and brand new wood floors. From the moment you step inside, your senses will be captivated by the abundant natural light that cascades through the grand wrap-around windows, enhanced further by its dual exposure, ensuring the interior remains bathed in sunlight throughout the day. The primary bedroom, spacious enough to accommodate a king-sized bed, complements the well-thought-out storage solutions seen in the ample closet space dispersed across the unit. The versatile home office or secondary bedroom, constructed with a pressurized wall, easily houses a queen bed, offering additional flexibility to residents or potential tenants. An expansive living area stands as a testament to impeccable design, with ample space for both entertainment and relaxation, achieving a harmonious balance and separation between the two. Located on the 3rd floor of a Doorman building with Elevator and Laundry services, this unit's location is unparalleled. You're at the epicenter of Murray Hill's prime attractions, surrounded by an eclectic mix of top-tier restaurants, entertainment venues, and easy transportation links. The Bentley's positioning is truly exceptional, sitting at the crossroads where Madison Square, Rose Hill, Kips Bay, and Murray Hill converge. It's just a leisurely stroll away from the verdant Madison Square Park, gourmet destinations like Trader Joes, Eataly, and Whole Foods, and the niche boutiques that give this area its distinct charm. And for those with vehicles, parking is conveniently situated just a block away. Though you are in the heart of a vibrant neighborhood, the city-quiet windows and Eastern light exposure ensures you can retreat into a peaceful and quiet sanctuary whenever you desire. An investor's dream or an ideal primary residence, this unit promises both comfort and elegance. Kindly note, however, that pets are not permitted. This is not just an apartment, but a lifestyle. An opportunity not to be overlooked. NO PETS Some pics are virtually staged
