New York Apartment - Studio in Midtown East (NY-14551)

Become part of the Midtown scene by renting this studio apartment on East 52nd Street & 2nd Avenue, just blocks from NYC icons like the Rockefeller Center and Grand Central Station! This fully furnished apartment is located on the third floor of a walk-up building (considered the 2nd by Europeans). This is an older pre-war building in New York City, and the age is evident in some of the characteristics of the floors and windows, but it is well maintained and constant improvements are being made.

The apartment's entrance is secured by a key code combination rather than a key. Upon entering you will find yourself in the kitchen area with a small dining table, which can be separated from the main living area by curtains. Basic kitchen appliances are provided, including a stovetop with oven, a small fridge with a freezer compartment and a microwave.

If you follow the hardwood floors to the windows, you will find a main room with a king size bed and a sofa facing a wall-mounted flat screen TV. The room also includes a table that can be used for dining or as a workspace. The two windows of this room have southern exposure, overlooking the street below.

Two closets, one off of the kitchen and one off of the living room, provide additional storage space in the apartment.
