Commute with ease as the E, 4, 5, 6, and M subway lines and CitiBike docks are just around the corner. Enjoy the benefits of low maintenance and the potential to sublet after two years of residency.

This well-maintained co-op with strong financials is more than just a home; it's a lifestyle. Whether you're seeking a permanent residence or a pied-a-terre, this studio offers endless possibilities. Contact us today to schedule a viewing and experience the magic of Manhattan living for yourself.
