Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Corcoran Group.
Floor-to-ceiling French doors open onto Juliet balconies on the west side of this 806-square-foot one-bedroom at 400 East 51st Street. A Juliet balcony won't give you a place to sit outside, but the doors let air and light into the rooms when they're open. The listing describes the home as filled with natural light and offering an unobstructed city view.
Because the rooms face west, the sun reaches them in the afternoon and evening. An open-horizon west window gets direct sun from about 12:34 PM to 4:07 PM at the winter solstice, roughly 3.6 hours, and from about 1:11 PM to 8:07 PM at the summer solstice, roughly 7 hours. Nearby buildings can block some or all of it, so treat these as open-horizon figures.
Pets are allowed, and the building has a 24-hour doorman and concierge.
The kitchen is modern, with stainless steel appliances that include a Viking refrigerator and range and a brand-new Bosch dishwasher. The listing also mentions custom cabinetry and an abundance of closet space, which matters in a one-bedroom where storage has to work hard. The washer and dryer are in the unit.
The building also has an elevator, a bike room, a children's playroom, a sauna, a courtyard and a roof deck, and the listing credits the 2003 design to architect Costas Kondylis. Nearby, the East River Walk is about 5 minutes away on foot, the Morton Williams supermarket is about 5 minutes away, and Grand Central Terminal is about 16 minutes away. The Lexington Av/53 St station, served by the 6, E and F, is about 8 minutes away.
