Description

This furnished 2 bed/1 bath apartment is a peaceful oasis perfect for quiet work or study. The unit faces west (away from the street) and sits on the 5th of 6 floors. There are windows in every room, with the sky quite visible in each and a tree visible from the living room and main bedroom. This, combined with the tall ceilings and ceiling fans, makes the apartment feel very spacious. We often hear birds when we wake up in the morning. There are 2 closets, both of which extend upward to the apartment's ceiling, providing significant storage space. There is also a very large refrigerator and full sized stove/oven. Rent includes all utilities (water, gas, WiFi) except electric. The apartment building is full of friendly, quiet neighbors, some of whom have lived here for decades. It is located on a quiet street bracketed by elementary schools and a historic cathedral. The street parking is fantastic! The building also includes the following amenities: - laundry room - elevator - Amazon locker - trash chute - roof access with an incredible view of the city - live-in super - secure bicycle storage in basement Location: Right across from City College & a 10 min walk from Columbia/Barnard. 5 min walk to west entrance to St. Nicholas Park.

Otherwise, the apartment is fully furnished, including a large couch, coffee table, 55" Samsung Frame TV, large double dresser, large storage locker, and 2 oversized mirrors. About This Lister: My husband and I have had the pleasure of living in this apartment for 4 years. I am a local middle school teacher, and my partner works from home. We are members of a local church and enjoy hosting friends and family. We have a very good relationship with the landlord, super, and neighbors. During this sublease period, we will be living out of state with family as we adjust to life as new parents!
