Property Description
Pre-war one-bedroom corner unit in the back of the building with a windowed home office and a 300+ SF private and serene landscaped patio/garden that has been thoughtfully upgraded and renovated into a rare outdoor retreat more commonly associated with townhouse living than apartment living in Manhattan. Perfect for alfresco, cooking, dining, relaxing and entertaining.
This stately building also features one of the most beautifully landscaped roof decks in Manhattan featuring private seating areas with spectacular views of both the iconic Chrysler and Empire State Buildings. Plus it provides a BBQ grill for barbecuing.
Tucked away in the back of the building, surrounded by other private gardens, Residence 1D offers remarkable peace and quiet while showcasing the timeless character that makes pre-war homes so sought after, including soaring 9'5” beamed ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, elegant moldings, and a gracious entry foyer.
Upon entering, you are welcomed by a proper entry foyer with a large coat closet on one side and a windowed home office on the other side, which could even function as a nursery. The spacious living room easily accommodates both living and dining areas and is filled with natural light from two windows. Off the living room is a hallway leading to the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom, that has been enhanced with a wall of floor-to-ceiling bookshelves.
The windowed galley kitchen features plentiful cabinetry, including the installation of additional cabinetry, and countertop prep space, a full-sized gas range and refrigerator, and the ability to install a full-sized dishwasher. There is also a breakfast bar, a perfect place for having your morning coffee to get your day started.
The bedroom is both comfortable and pin-drop quiet, features two windows, and easily accommodates a queen-sized bed. A floor-to-ceiling wall of custom built-in closets has been installed to accommodate all your seasonal clothing. The windowed bathroom retains its classic pre-war charm with original-style subway tile, black border detailing, and a traditional soaking tub.
Directly off the bedroom is the crown jewel of this home — a 300+ square foot private patio/garden that has been renovated and beautifully landscaped to create a true outdoor oasis in the heart of Midtown Manhattan.
Designed for entertaining, relaxing, dining, and gardening, the space is large enough to offer several dining and seating area arrangements and space for additional planter boxes for more gardening. It provides a level of private outdoor living that is extraordinarily rare in Manhattan. It includes a portable waterproof canopy that can be latched into place to cover the main portion of the patio to enable using it on a rainy day. It also includes two storage bins that convey with the apartment that can be used to store outdoor cushions, gardening equipment and other outdoor living necessities.
264 Lexington Avenue is an intimate and beautifully maintained pre-war brick co-op built in 1924, comprised of just 35 residences across 11 floors. Building amenities include a part-time doorman, ButterflyMX video intercom system, laundry and storage, and a stunning recently renovated lobby. Residents also enjoy an incredible landscaped rooftop terrace complete with BBQ grill, separate dining and lounge areas, and sweeping skyline views including the Chrysler Building and Empire State Building.
Ideally located in the heart of Murray Hill, surrounded by the Murray Hill Historic District, the building is just moments from Grand Central Terminal, the 6 train, multiple subway and bus lines, across the street from a Citi-Bike station, and close to excellent shopping, grocery stores including Whole Foods, restaurants, the New York Public Library, The Morgan Library and Bryant Park.
Pied-à-terres, pets, including dogs, and subletting are permitted with board approval.
