MANHATTAN — Are you looking for an apartment building that comes with a little extra help? These three apartments, two in Manhattan and one in Brooklyn, are all located in buildings that offer doormen and concierge service.
Lowdown: This junior one-bedroom apartment has been converted from an alcove studio. “For a one bedroom, it's better in price,” said Spire Group broker Bianka Yankov, who said she received 40 inquiries about the unit the first 48 hours it went on the market.
Entering the front door, there's an arched entryway to the bedroom. The current owners separate the bedroom from the foyer by a curtain. Inside the bedroom and the rest of the apartment, the owners installed soundproof windows to keep out noise, according to Yankov.
“The apartment is on the second floor so the windows have treetop views,” she said.
A galley kitchen has granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. It was upgraded about three years ago, said Yankov.
The open living and dining room have enough space for both a couch and dining room table.
The co-op building, where Yankov is a shareholder, has 24-hour doorman and concierge services.
“It's one person who does both jobs,” she said. There's also a furnished roof deck, recently upgraded fitness center, laundry room, garage and storage room.
Location: “The building is squeezed between Nomad, Murray Hill and Gramercy,” noted Yankov. It's about five blocks north from Gramercy Park and three blocks east of Madison Square Park. The closest subway line is the 6 train at either 23rd Street or 28th Street.
Why put it on your open house calendar? “It's pindrop quiet and there are very low monthlies,” said Yankov.
