Welcome to Apartment 4G at 649 Second Avenue, a bright and thoughtfully laid-out home in the heart of Murray Hill.
A gracious entry hallway welcomes you into the apartment, with a spacious coat closet conveniently positioned just off the entrance.

Down the hallway, the well-appointed bathroom includes a dedicated dressing area and an additional closet, providing exceptional storage throughout the home.
