Listing Notes
Located at 143 East 34th Street, an intimate condominium building, this sprawling 950 square foot 1 bedroom / 1.5 bathroom home is modern and sophisticated. Oversized soundproof south and west facing windows offer day long sunlight and direct Empire State Building views. This newly appointed home features soaring ceilings and hardwood floors throughout. The open planned kitchen, equipped with stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and a breakfast bar, is the ideal place to start the day. This apartment offers a bright and versatile corner living room, the perfect place for entertaining and relaxing. The king-size bedroom has room enough for additional furniture, and features an expansive walk-in closet, and an en suite windowed bathroom. Equipped with the convenience of a stackable washer/dryer that vents out, a separate powder room for guests, and storage options punctuated throughout, this home is both thoughtful and functional. The Benson is a boutique Condominium built in 2002 with only 23 residences sharing only two apartments per floor. The building is pet friendly and offers a part-time doorman, an outdoor garden with a grill, a live-in superintendent, and parking next door. Located a stone's throw from Grand Central Station, major subway lines (4, 5, 6, 7, S), the cross town bus (M34), and a myriad of restaurants, bars, and cafes, this is Murray Hill living at its finest! There is currently a reliable tenant in place who would love to extend with the new owner, or the home can be delivered vacant. The home is eligible for 17.5% condo tax abatement if your primary residence.
