Property Details

We are listing this unit as we are moving to a two-bedroom apartment after welcoming a baby. We have lived here since 2022, when we first moved to Manhattan, and have happily stayed for three years. If we did not need the extra bedroom, we would absolutely continue living here.

Here are some of the highlights of this unit:

1. The building staff are exceptionally friendly, and the leasing office responds quickly to all maintenance requests. For example, when we had an issue with the dishwasher and microwave, they replaced them the very next day. The building also hosts monthly resident events, such as morning coffee and pastries in the lobby or catered gatherings in the lounge featuring well-known local restaurants. These events create a warm and welcoming community atmosphere. The lobby and hallways are beautifully designed with warm, upscale interiors — anyone who visits will immediately notice the quality of the building.

2. The unit receives excellent natural light. Ours faces west with a direct view of Broadway, offering open city views and large windows that create a bright and airy living space. The bathroom features high-end finishes and maintains a clean, cozy atmosphere.

3. As newlyweds, we have taken very good care of the apartment. Aside from very minor everyday wear, the unit is in excellent condition. Anyone who visits will immediately notice how well maintained it is.

4. The layout is very classic and practical, with square and rectangular proportions that make furniture placement easy. The primary bedroom is square-shaped and comfortably fits a king-sized bed, TV, and dressers. The living room is slightly rectangular and easily accommodates a four-person sofa and a work desk while still feeling spacious. Currently, we have a four-seat sofa, two work desks, and a dining table in the living area, and it still feels open and comfortable.

5. From a pricing perspective, this is a strong opportunity. The building is in a desirable neighborhood and is relatively new, and comparable units are currently listed around $7,100. Because we have lived here for three years, our rent is significantly below current market rates. This takeover allows you to secure the apartment at approximately $600 below market, and future renewals are likely to remain more favorable than current listing prices.

Incentives

If the move-in date aligns well with our timeline, we may be open to offering a modest rent concession.

Additional fees

An application fee is required, and a guarantor is required depending on the applicant’s financial qualifications.

Other info

The building is pet-friendly. By taking over the remaining two months of the lease, the incoming tenant will also retain the right to renew directly with the landlord. The move-in date is flexible. As we are currently searching for a new home within Manhattan, we can coordinate timelines to achieve the most optimal transition. We are flexible with move-in dates between March and May.
