Description

Open house on Sunday, August 13 from 3:00 until 4:30pm. Nestled between Gramercy Park and Murray Hill and just a stone's throw from Madison Square Park, this handsome 2-bedroom 2-bathroom prewar home, in a beautiful and established Bing & Bing co-op, is now for sale. The elegant entry hall with two walk-in closets leads to a large living/dining room that can easily accommodate dinner parties as well as entertaining around the beautiful wood-burning fireplace. The two split bedrooms, perfect for maximum privacy, are both enormous and each enjoys its own ensuite, windowed bathroom. Each bedroom also has abundant closet space. The enlarged, fully renovated windowed kitchen features stainless steel appliances and ample counter space. The master bedroom and living room both face north onto East 28th Street, a pretty, tree-lined block, opposite historical and architecturally significant buildings. Each enjoys an oblique view of the Empire State Building in all its iconic glory. The apartment has abundant closets throughout (including four walk-in closets!), as well as high, beamed ceilings, hardwood floors and pre-war architectural details. 140 East 28th Street was built in 1931 and converted to a co-op in 1983. It was designed by famed NYC architect Emery Roth and built by Bing & Bing, boasting all the best pre-war architecture and construction exemplary of the era. This pet-friendly building has full-time doormen, a live-in building manager, a laundry room, private storage, bike storage, and a beautiful planted rooftop deck. Pied-à-terre ownership is allowed. Co-purchasing and guarantors are also permitted. The building is extremely convenient to the 6-train subway and amenities along Lexington and Third Avenues, as well as close to all of the trendy and chic restaurants and boutiques in the Nomad and Flatiron districts.
