East 40th Street

Bring your vision. Apartment 9C is a high-floor studio in a boutique prewar Art Deco cooperative just two blocks from Grand Central, offering the opportunity to update a home while preserving the timeless character that makes prewar residences so desirable. The apartment retains the classic details buyers seek, including beamed ceilings, an entry foyer, original parquet floors, casement windows, and generous closet space rarely found in today's new construction. While the interior would benefit from updating, the apartment provides an excellent canvas to create a home that reflects your own style. The building is a well-maintained prewar cooperative featuring an original Art Deco lobby with terrazzo floors, an attended lobby, two elevators, a secure package room, central laundry, bike storage, and private storage (waitlist may apply). The landscaped roof deck offers direct views of the Empire State Building. Ideally located in Murray Hill, you're just two blocks from Grand Central Terminal with easy access to the 4, 5, 6, and 7 trains, multiple bus lines, Bryant Park, Trader Joe's, the Hampton Jitney, and an outstanding selection of restaurants. Co-purchasing, parents purchasing for children, and pied-à-terre ownership are permitted. A 1.5% flip tax is payable by the buyer. Cats are welcome; dogs are not permitted. All offers will be considered.
