This full-sized two-bedroom co-op on Manhattan’s east side at 144 East 36th Street is a classic pre-war home, with high, beamed ceilings and generous proportions. Asking $850,000, the cozy, colorful apartment’s decor surrounds graceful arches and molding, hardwood floors–and Chrysler Building views–with pretty prints and floral chintz, bringing the cheerfulness of a country meadow to the historic Deco residence.
Starting with a foyer that can work as a dining space, considered details include marble-topped storage beneath the windows and ornate ceiling medallions. Conveniences include through-the-wall A/C units and an in-unit washer/dryer. Landmark city views are a covetable bonus.
The compact galley kitchen could use a refresh, but details like a patterned, papered ceiling and dark-teal stained wood flooring give the space plenty of charm. A combined washer/dryer is tucked into a convenient kitchen corner, as is a compact dining table.
Though spacious enough for standard furniture, the primary bedroom boasts a Murphy bed, built-in marble-topped storage, and two closets. A second bedroom has a built-in desk.
Colorful florals in delphinium blue frame the home’s full bath, and a powder room completes the pretty picture. Built in 1916, the pet- and pied-a-terre-friendly co-op has a live-in super, basement storage, laundry facilities, and a bike room.
