Renowned interior designer Robert Passal is listing his Murray Hill residence in New York City for $1.65 million. The two-bedroom, one-bathroom pre-war apartment at 264 Lexington Avenue is described as "move-in ready" and reflects Passal's distinctive design approach.

The sixth-floor property is filled with natural light, architectural mouldings, and a wood burning fireplace. It features a windowed chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry, an upholstered main bedroom with built-in closets, and a flexible second bedroom that can serve multiple functions. The bathroom is finished to a "spa-like" standard, with a glass shower.
Passal stated that the home has been his "design lab", evolving over the years as he refined his creative skills. He has also contributed to the building's common areas, designing the lobby, rooftop deck, and several shared spaces. He plans to remain in the building but is seeking a "fresh start in a new environment".
The apartment, which can be sold furnished, includes modern amenities such as double-paned windows, surround sound, and gallery lighting. The 11-storey building, dating to 1923, has 33 units, a communal rooftop deck with city views, a part-time doorman, a superintendent, and basement storage.
Listing broker Emily Beare of Core Real Estate stated that the home has "so much texture, colour, and attention to detail", adding that Passal is open to assisting the buyer in achieving a similar aesthetic.
