Located on a quiet, unassuming Midtown block, this multi-family townhouse is a delightful live-with-income opportunity. It is configured as four apartments, including a Garden Duplex that features a unique sunken living room with a glorious wall of glass sliding doors and windows that open to a bi-level rear garden. Each apartment has been renovated with modern kitchens, bathrooms and split-system AC. There are also large windows throughout the upper floor-through apartments that provide wonderful indoor/outdoor energy as well as offering a few peek-a-boo views of iconic buildings. 222 East 32nd Street is an easy walk from all major transportation including the 6 Train and Penn Station as well as quick access to the Midtown Tunnel for airports or points on Long Island.
Garden & Parlour Floor Duplex
This lovely, three-bedroom duplex apartment can be accessed via a private entrance under the townhouse stoop, or via the parlour floor lobby. On the garden floor, it boasts a great room with an abundance of natural light streaming in from a skylight and a wall of sliding glass doors and windows that lead out to a huge private garden. The great room also features exposed brick surrounding a decorative fireplace and a gorgeous slate floor. It has an amazing vibe and layout for entertaining. Plus, a well-appointed kitchen opens to the great room with a pass-through.
A bedroom is situated at the front of the garden floor as well as a full bathroom and closet containing a stackable washer/dryer. The townhouse cellar is also accessible from within this unit.
The parlour floor of the duplex is dedicated to two bedrooms. A modest bedroom with a picture window sits at the front of the floor and a primary bedroom suite at the rear. The primary bedroom features a decorative fireplace, dual closets, and a door that leads out to a terrace. The renovated ensuite bathroom has two independent sinks as well as a cedar sauna.
Third Floor
The third floor hosts the second apartment in the townhouse. This one-bedroom, floor-through unit is tremendously spacious and sunny. An attractively renovated kitchen with copious cabinets and a dishwasher welcomes everyone home. The kitchen flows into the living room that has a decorative fireplace and view of multiple townhouse gardens.
Fourth Floor
The fourth floor is occupied by a one-bedroom apartment. It has the same footprint as the floor below.
Fifth Floor
A fifth floor apartment has the finishes of a handsome penthouse. The unit features two large skylights, a wood-burning fireplace, and a chef’s kitchen complete with granite countertops, deep Farmhouse-style sink, and a breakfast bar. The front-facing bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with a double vanity, shower stall, and stackable washer/dryer like the units below. There is also a set of elegant private stairs within the apartment that provide direct access to the roof, with structural support steel beams added in the penthouse apartment ceiling, gas/electric/water lines, and architectural plans for a deck, which was fully permitted in 2012 and awaiting the final design of the future owner.
