Property Details

Whole unfurnished 2BR/2BA sublet in Midtown East, November 1, 2026–May 31, 2027. Seeking the full remaining term. We remain on the lease; you have the entire apartment.

East 53rd Street near Third Avenue, close to the E/M at Lexington Avenue–53rd Street and the 6 at 51st Street. Hardwood floors, open living/dining area, dishwasher, built-in closet storage, and two full bathrooms.

Condition note: The apartment is offered as-is. There has been a mouse sighting, there may be bathroom mold/mildew, and there are cosmetic wall/paint issues, including marked-up paint and small holes from previously hung items.

• Rent: $5,107/month, what we currently pay with no markup: $5,122 base rent minus a $15 monthly concession, confirmed by management for the full sublet.
• Refundable security deposit: $5,107 (one month's rent).
• No sublet administration fee, confirmed with management.
• Gas, heat and water included; electricity and internet paid separately by the subtenant.

Management's application and written approval are required. Applicants submit photo ID, an employment letter, paystubs, bank statements, and tax returns or W-2s through management's secure portal; we'll share instructions. A new lease after May 31 may be possible at management's offered terms and approval, but isn't guaranteed. Coordinate move-in arrangements with the building.

Tours: weekdays after 5 p.m. by appointment; weekends may be possible depending on availability. Video tours available.

DM your preferred move-in date, length of stay, number of occupants, a few weekday evening tour times, and whether you prefer an in-person or video tour. Exact address shared privately when arranging a tour.
