330 E 38th Street 36-OP

Agent's Note

From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by R New York.

The living room is the center of the apartment, with oversized rounded bay windows that frame southern city views and Empire State views from the 36th floor. The renovated kitchen's breakfast bar looks out over that same southern light and those views.

The apartment faces south, west and east, so its windows take light from several directions. On an open horizon, a south-facing window can get about 8.5 hours of direct sun on the winter solstice and about 6.1 hours on the summer solstice. Nearby buildings can block it, so think of those figures as the open-sky maximum.

The primary bedroom is 520 square feet, big enough for a king bed, and it has a Maurice Villency wall unit plus a generous walk-in closet. The living room has its own Maurice Villency unit, so storage is spread across two rooms. A second bedroom could also serve as a home office or study, which gives the layout room to change with your routine.

The kitchen has Snaidero cabinetry, and a Bosch washer and dryer sit in the unit, so there's no trip to a shared laundry room. Both bathrooms have walk-in showers and a jacuzzi soaking tub.

The building is a 57-story condominium completed in 1987, with 830 units, a full-time doorman, a concierge and an elevator. Its shared spaces include an indoor pool, spa, sauna, golf simulator, screening room, courtyard and roof deck, and pets are allowed. Grand Central-42 St is about 10 minutes on foot for the 4, 5, 6 and 7 trains, and St. Vartan Park is about 2 minutes away.
