135 East 54th Street #5B

Set in a prime Midtown location, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom condo spans a generous 1,130 square feet, boasting oversized windows providing a tremendous amount of natural light. This spacious open floor plan can accommodate an additional bedroom or half bath.

The Lex 54 condominium is a modern, 16-story building erected in 1949, and its 141 units were converted from rentals in 1985. It was designed by noted architect Rosario Candela, famous for more than a dozen New York residential buildings, including 720 Park Avenue, 740 Park Avenue, and 1 Sutton Place. Amenities at the Lex 54 include a 24-hour doorman, elevator, common storage, and central laundry room.

The grand foyer leads into the vast living room, adjacent to a large walk-in closet and separate dining room, which in turn leads into the windowed kitchen. The master bedroom wing contains an en-suite bath, two grand closets and two large exposures. As currently constructed, there are three more closets, an additional bathroom and a second bedroom with fantastic exposures. This expansive home is ripe for a high-minded and creative buyer to craft the New York apartment of their dreams.

Live in the center of a historic Manhattan neighborhood, where everything is just a stroll away, including world-class boutiques, Central Park, and innumerable restaurants, bars, cafes, and culture destinations. The neighborhood also boasts some of the citys highest performing schools. A Whole Foods market is nearby as well, while the E, M and 6 trains all stop within three blocks, ushering residents around the city with ease.
