Rarely available elegant mid-Victorian townhouse one bedroom in a self-managed seven-unit cooperative built in 1857, said to have been the private home of Commodore Perry, and located just off Park Avenue in the Murray Hill Historic District.  Two flights up from the lobby, this superbly restored apartment with high ceilings is entered through its private foyer (off of which is a washer-dryer) leading into a beautiful living room with working fireplace and a bay window through which the iconic Chrysler Building looms.  An open-style modern kitchen with dining area has wood finishes that aesthetically meld with the ajoining living room.  A sunny and serene large bedroom with floor-to-ceiling bookcases and decorative fireplace makes for sleeping in style!  The large windowed marble bathroom would not be out of place in a four-star hotel.  All owners in the building sit on the Board so, as primary residents, all can particiipate fully in its management.  Sub-leasing is not allowed, nor are dogs.  Basement storage is available.  A house man attends to common area cleaning.
