About this home

Apartment for sale in Midtown South-Flatiron-Union Square, Manhattan: studio, 1 bathroom. Asking price $650,000. Built in 1961.

From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Residence 17H is the largest studio line in the building, a bright and airy home with sweeping south-facing views over downtown from the 17th floor. Designed for both daily comfort and easy entertaining, the expansive main room stretches nearly 27 feet and incorporates a generous sleeping alcove that functions beautifully as a separate bedroom zone. The alcove can be enclosed to create a junior one-bedroom or left open for a loft-like, hotel-suite feel. A separate, efficiently planned kitchen keeps cooking out of the main living space while offering ample storage and work surface. Multiple closets, including great entry storage, make it easy to live neatly in style. Perched in a full-service postwar cooperative at the sweet spot where Union Square meets Greenwich Village, the building offers a 24-hour attended lobby, on-site staff, and a superb roof deck just a short few steps upstairs with dramatic skyline and sunset views. Pied-a-terres are permitted, making this an ideal downtown base, first purchase, or long-term investment in one of Fifth Avenue's most coveted locations.
