Property Details

Lease assignment: Chelsea 1BR at $5,495/mo through August 2027 (landlord-approved)

Take over my lease on a bright 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment with a balcony on a quiet Chelsea block, in an elevator building with gym and laundry.

Rent: $5,495/month
Lease term: 1 year
Available: February 1, 2027 (move-in date is flexible)
I'm ending my lease early (moving internationally) for work, and the landlord is wiling to start a new lease when I leave at the end of Jan. No broker, no broker fee.
Application through the management company: $20 credit/background check fee, standard income requirements (40x monthly) apply

The apartment
This is a large 1-bed on the third floor with exceptional storage space (4 closets!) and a separate kitchen. The unit gets great light and has its own balcony.

Location
Highly convenient to transit: the F/M and L are less than a block away, the 1/2/3 is one avenue away, and Union Square (4/5/6/N/Q/R/W) is a five-minute walk.

Building
Well-managed, with an attentive superintendent, plus laundry and a gym in the basement.

Furnished and move-in ready
The apartment comes fully furnished with large furniture (bed, couch, dresser, dining room table, etc.), lamps, and kitchenware (plates, blender, silverware, etc.) for a truly turnkey arrival. I’d love to sell everything as a package at an attractive price, but an unfurnished handover is also possible. Can also include plants!

Incentives

Willing to offer all furniture at a steep discount (less than 20% of total original price!) - prefer to lease the apartment furnished.

Additional fees

Application fee of $20. Application requires standard paperwork (e.g. letter of employment verification, income 40x monthly rent (though guarantors are permitted), 2 recent paystubs, 2 most recent tax returns).
