Listing Notes

This beautifully renovated 2-bedroom, 1-bath SPONSOR unit offers a rare opportunity to own in Manhattan with exceptionally low monthly maintenance of only $1,000. As a sponsor unit, the purchase process is significantly simpler since no traditional board approval is required, allowing for a faster and more straightforward closing. The apartment has been fully updated and is move-in ready, featuring a brand-new kitchen with white cabinetry, quartz countertops, and modern finishes. The bathroom blends classic charm with a timeless claw-foot soaking tub, while refinished hardwood floors run throughout the home, adding warmth and character. The spacious layout offers bright, comfortable living areas with excellent natural light. Pets are welcome with board approval. As part of the building's standard procedure, the purchaser will submit a simple disclosure form and criminal background check, followed by a courtesy meet-and-greet with the board. Opportunities to purchase a renovated Manhattan 2-bedroom with such low maintenance and the flexibility of a SPONSOR unit are extremely rare. Square footage is approximate.
