This apartment boasts an address that’s hard to top – right on the doorstep of Central Park. Step outside and you’re moments from leafy walks, New Yorks' iconic sights, and Columbus Circle’s eateries. Back inside, the dining table sits right in the large bay window – a spot that’s easy to while away the hours at, just admiring the view. There’s a compact kitchen for light bites, a comfy living area for resting your feet, and plenty of storage. Keen to work out while you’re here? You have access to the on-site gym too. We couldn’t think of a more convenient base in the heart of Manhattan.

Home truths
Parking in New York can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.

You'll have access to the on-site gym here. It's shared with the building's other residents.
