Description
Perched on the 16th floor of Chesapeake House, this expansive four-bedroom, three-bath residence offers a rare combination of scale, light, and flexibility in the heart of Kips Bay — move in as is or reimagine it with the included alternate floor plan. A private foyer and gallery hall link oversized living and dining rooms to the bedroom wing. Newly refinished wide-plank oak floors underfoot, angled ceiling details overhead, and a striking run of windows on two exposures frame open, sun-filled skyline views to the north and west.
The windowed galley kitchen features cherry wood cabinetry, granite counters, a gas cooktop, double wall oven, and stainless appliances, with a butler's pantry for extra prep and storage. A gallery-like office/library with built-in shelving adds a flexible bonus room providing a configuration rarely found in Manhattan.
Four generously sized bedrooms include a corner primary suite with two exposures, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath; second bedroom with its own en-suite bath; and two additional bedrooms sharing a third full bath, each with ample closet space. Each of the three bathrooms offers a distinct finish — travertine, hexagon tile, and wood-look tile.
Built in 1964, Chesapeake House is a full-service, pet-friendly co-op with 24-hour concierge, a common roof deck, and bike room, moments from Kips Bay's restaurants, transit, and NYU Langone. A rare opportunity to secure an oversized, flexible layout in one of the neighborhood's most established buildings.
Alternate Floor Plan:
For buyers looking to enhance flow and functionality, an alternate floor plan shows the unit's potential: an expanded foyer with added closets, a reconfigured, enlarged kitchen with a dedicated breakfast room, and an enlarged fourth bedroom with its own closet — all while preserving the home's abundant storage.

Renderings/floor plans are conceptual and intended to illustrate potential layout options; any renovation would be subject to buyer's own design, contractor, and co-op board approval.
