320 E 42nd St Apt 2218
Listing Notes
320 East 42st apt 2218 is a turn-key perfect jewel box. Perched high above Manhattan, this light-filled corner unit has spectacular views with both southern and eastern exposure. The southern view is unobstructed for multiple blocks - with no other buildings reaching the height of the apartment for blocks. The eastern water views are breathtaking - and also look at the historic Tudor city buildings, the UN, the Tudor City sign, and overlook the two private Tudor City parks that the building accesses. The historic casement windows open wide to let fresh air into the apartment, and have been outfitted with $15k of one-touch electric blinds that are included with the apartment. The entire apartment was completely renovated in 2020 with brand-new hardwood floors, a sparkling marble bathroom with beautiful finishes, all new lighting, and a brand-new state-of-the-art kitchen featuring top-of-the-line appliances (like sub zero). No detail was spared. Custom glass and metal doors were fabricated to separate the family room from the bedroom - that match the windows. And the same doors are used in the bedroom as well. All window sills are covered in marble. Ample closet space also features custom built-ins in each closet, as well as custom-built ins surrounding the TV to create lots of additional pantry and storage space.
