201 East 28th Street Kips Bay Apartment For Sale

Perched on the 16th floor of Chesapeake House, this expansive residence offers a rare combination of scale, light, and flexibility in the heart of Kips Bay. Newly refinished wide-plank oak floors run throughout, catching the light beneath striking angled ceiling details. Multiple exposures — including a striking run of windows on two walls — flood the living space with light and frame open, sweeping Manhattan skyline views over rooftops and towers to the north and west. \n\nThe layout — a thoughtfully combined 16AB unit — lives like few others on the market. Enter through a private foyer with a coat closet, where an arched passageway and a sculptural brass track light set a stylish tone for the gallery hall beyond, its warm oak floors leading past the bedroom wing. From the entry, the home opens into an oversized living and dining space, with a separate dedicated dining area, where sleek modern pendant fixtures and finished radiator covers add a polished, move-in-ready feel. Just beyond, the windowed galley kitchen offers warm cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, a gas cooktop, double wall oven, and stainless steel refrigerator and dishwasher — a full, functional kitchen with excellent storage and city views of its own. Down the hall, a versatile office/library — a long, gallery-like room fitted with built-in wood shelving and elegant brass swing-arm sconces — sits alongside a butler\'s pantry offering additional prep space and storage, together creating a configuration that\'s genuinely hard to find in Manhattan.\n\nFour generously scaled bedrooms anchor the home. The corner primary bedroom is generously sized, with two exposures of windows framing open skyline views, a large multi-panel closet, direct access to its own adjacent bath, and a dedicated walk-in closet. Bedroom Two enjoys its own private, en-suite bath and an oversized double-door closet, along with its own window exposure. Bedroom Three offers an abundance of closet space, with multiple bi-fold closets and easy access to a nearby bath. Bedroom Four, currently carpeted, comes complete with a large closet and custom built-in shelving flanking its window — a bonus for anyone in need of extra storage or display space. Each of the three full bathrooms has been finished with its own distinct, updated look — from travertine walls and a separate glass shower stall, to a hexagon-tiled tub/shower with a marble accent wall, to a sleek wood-look tiled bath with a frameless glass shower — and abundant closets throughout round out the floor plan.\n**Some photos are Virtually Staged** \n\nBuilt in 1964 and home to 252 units across 20 stories, Chesapeake House is a full-service, pet-friendly co-op offering a 24-hour concierge, common roof deck, and bike room, all just moments from Kips Bay\'s restaurants, transit, and NYU Langone. This is an exceptional opportunity to secure a rarely available, oversized layout in one of Kips Bay\'s most established full-service buildings.\n\nFor buyers with a vision, an alternate floor plan reimagines the layout into an even more functional, move-in-ready home: an expanded foyer with additional closet space for a more gracious entry, a reconfigured and enlarged kitchen with improved flow, a dedicated breakfast room off the kitchen for casual dining, and an enlarged fourth bedroom with its own closet — all while preserving the home\'s abundant closet space throughout.\n\nAt a Glance\n\n4 Bedrooms | 3 Bathrooms\n16th floor — bright, sunny, open skyline views\nNewly refinished wide-plank oak floors, striking angled ceiling details\nCombined 16AB layout with butler\'s pantry, office/library, and full kitchen\nPrimary suite with walk-in closet\nFull-service, pet-friendly co-op: concierge, roof deck, bike room\nBuilt 1964 | 20 stories | 252 units\nKips Bay, Manhattan\n\nRenovation Potential (Alternate Floor Plan)\n\nExpanded foyer with additional closet\nEnlarged, reconfigured kitchen with improved functionality\nNew dedicated breakfast room\nBedroom Four enlarged, with its own c
