Property Details

[One private bedroom available] Hi all, one of my roommates is moving out and I don't want to leave my amazing apartment on 48th & 2nd, so thought I'd post to see if there is interest in this room in a large 4 bedroom / 2 bathroom apartment in Midtown Manhattan (48th and 2nd Avenue) for a July 2025 (move in date can be flexible across June or July) through June 2026 12 month lease. The apartment is located on the 17th Floor of a doorman high rise in super convenient location to anyone working in midtown (a few blocks from major banks, finance, media, advertising firms etc.). The building has a gym / supermarket within a block, laundry in building, an array of great restaurants on 2nd avenue and is just a few minute walk to Lex / 53rd or Grand Central subway stop that can get you anywhere else in Manhattan, Brooklyn or New Jersey in ~30 minutes.

The apartment is kept in wonderful condition with a very large living room that has couches, coffee table, TV (to give you sense of living room from first pic, that's a large 50" flat screen that looks tiny compared to the space), dining table and an entrance/foyer. The overall feel of the apartment is "large and spacious". There are AC units and heaters in each room. Each bedroom has wall-to-wall windows that get a ton of natural sunlight. The 17th floor has awesome views of Midtown since the surrounding block is almost all 2-story townhouses so not as many tall in-your-face buildings.

Room Description:
This bedroom (around 13' x 12') easily fits a queen bed, desk, and TV/dresser has an entrance from the kitchen. It will also share a bathroom with Room #1 and potentially one other roommate. Has beautiful view of the city with tons of sunlight. See attached picture for that room (its the bottom left picture in floor plan). It also has the option to be fully furnished.

You will be living with two males working in finance and tech (not home that often). I'm very laid back and am looking for roommates who will use the apartment to relax/chill. Looking for generally relaxed people but can keep the apartment clean and enjoy a relaxed / quieter / low-key vibe in terms of roommates. No cigarette smokers or pets.

Utilities are not included in the price but have averaged ~$50-100 a month per person all-in (i.e. electricity + internet).

If you are interested - please reach out to me with a little blurb about yourself (age / job / what you like to do etc.), what you are looking for in apartment (cleaning / cooking habits etc.), and what times you are available to chat over Facetime. Happy to also send over more pics as well!
