In addition, enjoy ample storage with two large closets.


237 East 54th Street is a 16 unit and four-story boutique pre-war co-op built in 1900 that maintains many of the original features. The intimate building offers a live-in superintendent, intercom, and has an inviting entrance with captivating hallways and stairwell with Victorian style wallpaper that is naturally lit up by a huge skylight.


This well-maintained co-op has excellent financials allowing for the incredibly low monthly maintenance fees which make this apartment a great opportunity for first time buyers. The very competitive price accommodates customized updating by the next owner.


The flexible co-op rules allow for pied-a-terre, gifting, parents buying, guarantors, and even subletting after two years of ownership. Pets are welcome!


The location is incredibly convenient, with transportation around the corner from the 6, E, M subway lines and the 4, 5, N, R, W subway lines nearby, and is not far from Grand Central Station. For bike lovers, bring your helmets, as there are two Citi Bike stations around the corner as well as several Green Bike Lanes, which are protected from traffic, headed in every direction.
