This sunny studio co-op is hiding a secret! The double-doored, oversized walk-in closet is large enough to accommodate a Murphy bed  essentially functioning as an alcove studio. It's also situated in the wide hallway that's separate from the grand living space boasting stunning city views of lush tree-lined streets. Talk about more bang for your buck!

Upon entrance you'll be greeted by the northern and eastern light exposure this corner unit pours into the open area, which is large enough to accommodate a home workstation. The windowed kitchen has been updated with glass shelving, an under-sink water filter and other solutions to maximize space. This prewar home also comes with hardwood floors, beamed ceilings, an original windowed bathroom and more details that evoke that old New York charm.
