Description

Alcove Studio in a Quiet, Garden-Facing Setting

Welcome to 4A at 240 East 55th Street, an alcove studio with a practical layout in a prime Midtown location. The dedicated sleeping alcove creates a natural separation between the living and sleeping areas, offering a practical alternative to a traditional studio layout.

The apartment features a south-facing exposure overlooking a garden, offering a pleasant outlook away from the bustle of the city. Generous closet space adds valuable storage, making this a particularly practical home for its size.

240 East 55th Street is a building of just under 100 units featuring a part-time doorman, live-in superintendent, full-time p
orter, laundry room, and common storage and bike room. The building offers a flexible board policy, allowing pied-à-terres, co-purchases, parents purchasing for children, guarantors, and gifted purchases. After one year of residency, shareholders may sublet indefinitely. There is no flip tax. Cats are welcome; sorry, no dogs.

Ideally located in Midtown East, the building is surrounded by an excellent array of shopping, dining, fitness, and transportation options. Whole Foods, Equinox, Bloomingdale's, Rockefeller Center, numerous restaurants and shops, and multiple subway lines are all nearby, with Central Park just a short distance away.

A great opportunity to own a well-laid-out alcove studio with generous storage and a convenient Midtown location.
