    What's special

    A Most Desirable Murray Hill House This extremely handsome brick townhouse consists, presently, of two 1 Bedroom, absolutely charming, terraced residential units and a 1400 ft2 office space located on the garden and first floors of the house. Each of the residential units, which occupy the top two floors, offer well proportioned rooms with abundant natural light, wood burning fireplaces, and gracious terraces. 120 East 38th Street is situated on the south side of 38th Street, between Lexington Avenue and Park Avenue. In 2002 the Landmarks Preservation Commission Designated 120 East 38th Street as part of the Murray Hill Historic District. Beautiful Murray Hill townhouses and the iconic spire of the Chrysler Building grace the northern exposures of the house. The terraces of both residential units overlook a quiet private garden to the south. The garden may be accessed directly from the lower floor office space. To say that this house is one of the best buys in town is not an overstatement. Envision yourself either working and living in this space, yourself, or, potentially, converting the entire house to a single-family dwelling with space for working, entertaining, studying, sleeping and exercising. 120 East 38th Street, in its current configuration, is also a compelling investment opportunity. In short, the house can be put to all the uses necessary for living in New York City in the 21st-century. Please email or call any time with inquiries or requests to see this exceptional property.
