Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Nest Seekers LLC.
Apartment 56-A joins a two-bedroom with an adjoining studio, and the listing says it's convertible back to three bedrooms. That gives you room to decide how the space divides, whether that means a guest room, a home office or a separate bedroom for someone else.
The living room has oversized windows, and the home has three exposures. The listing describes city and partial river views, along with an unobstructed view of the Empire State Building, and you'll want to see that for yourself on a visit.
The windowed kitchen has Miele and Bosch appliances, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, granite countertops and plenty of cabinetry. Brazilian hardwood floors and cherry cabinetry run through the home. The bathroom has white tile, a walk-in shower, a separate soaking tub and an illuminated vanity mirror.
The building has a concierge, an elevator, laundry in the building, storage space, an indoor pool, a steam room, a garden and a roof deck. Bryant Park is about 2 minutes away on foot, and the 5 Av station is about 5 minutes away, with the 7, B, D, F and M lines. It's an 18-month minimum lease, so it suits a longer stay.
