About This Property

TBD

Agent's Note

From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Douglas Elliman Real Estate.

A roof deck, a screening room, a bike room and an elevator are the shared amenities listed for 181 East 28th Street, and the apartment inside is a two-bedroom, two-bathroom condominium of 1,129 square feet in Kips Bay.

In-unit laundry is the point I'd put first for everyday use. The washer and dryer are in the apartment, so you won't need to leave the unit for a load. The home also has central air, which is worth having for a Manhattan summer.

The apartment has a city view and a skyline view. Pets are allowed under the building's policy, which is a plain fact worth knowing if you have animals.

For daily errands, Little India Market is about 1 minute away on foot, Kalustyan's about 2 minutes and D'Agostino about 4 minutes. The 28 St stop on the 6 train is about 4 minutes on foot, and Madison Square Park is about 8 minutes.

The elevator is the detail I'd note for anyone moving furniture or carrying groceries up regularly.
