Description

First offering of a rare, sun-flooded and spacious 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom 1,030 square foot apartment. The full-service postwar cooperative is found in the heart of the Gramercy Park Historic District, a unique enclave of 19th century buildings surrounding Manhattan's only remaining private park. In 1831 Samuel B. Ruggles, a developer and advocate of open space, proposed the idea for the park. Tenant-shareholders at 32 Gramercy Park South may purchase a much-coveted key to this bucolic sanctuary annually.

Ideally suited for use as either a primary residence or spacious pied-à-terre, the thoughtfully designed layout of Apartment 10A affords great versatility. A large, well-proportioned corner Living Room boasts dual southern and eastern exposures and adjoins an open-plan Kitchen. The Kitchen features a dining island anchored by bookshelves, granite countertops, a GE Profile range and oven, a GE microwave, a Frigidaire refrigerator, a Miele dishwasher and excellent storage. Facing west, the light-flooded Bedrooms are distinguished by 42 feet of protected views over the historic townhouses, lush gardens and the park. The Primary Bedroom enjoys two exposures and an en-suite Bathroom with a shower. The Second Bedroom features a Murphy bed. Both Bathrooms have been recently updated. Attractive wide plank hardwood floors, an abundance of closet space, custom-designed built-ins, and through-the-wall air conditioning have been installed throughout.

Building amenities include an expansive Roof Garden with captivating views of Gramercy Park and the city skyline and the availability of a Package Room and a recently updated central Laundry Room. Impeccable service and seamless security are provided by a dedicated staff, including a Resident Manager, 24-hour Doorman, and Porters and Handymen. 32 Gramercy Park South was built in 1956 with the simple lines and large windows typical of the Mid-Century Modern period. An extensive capital improvement program included an update of elevators, a refurbished Lobby and public hallways, energy conversion, and an attractively landscaped Roof Garden. The building features the option of an on-site parking garage, the only garage directly on Gramercy Park, which is owned by the building. Pets, pied-a-terres, co-purchases and financing of up to 80% of the purchase price may be permitted with board approval.
