From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Sun-Splashed Corner Prewar MINT One-Bedroom - High Floor, Big Light Eleven floors up, this quiet one-bedroom catches something most Murray Hill apartments simply don't: natural, all-day light. South and east exposures pour in with day-long skyline views over rooftops and water towers. Prewar details include original hardwood floors, 9' ceilings, and a layout with the generous proportions only a 1920s building delivers. A gracious entry foyer sets the tone for an expansive living room. The eat-in kitchen is windowed and bright, a rarity on its own. The bedroom wraps around a corner and can hold a king bed. The windowed bathroom features open shelving beneath the sink for towels and a mirrored floor-to-ceiling storage cabinet for additional convenience. 136 East 36th Street is a full-service, white-glove building with 24-hour doorman, resident super, laundry, bike storage, and a beautifully landscaped roof deck with towering views including the Empire State building. Conveniently located, it's steps to Grand Central, the 6 train, Bryant Park, and Murray Hill's restaurant row. There is a $6.6990/share assessment beginning October 1, 2026 through September 1, 2027. Now offered at $515,000 - it's one of the best values in Murray Hill today. Reasonable co-op policies allow pied-a-terre ownership, co-purchasing, gifting, guarantors, and subletting.
