While it has a very cool, New York vibe with its exposed brick and crittall windows, the real draw of this cosy apartment is its fantastic location. Located in the heart of Hell's Kitchen, not only are you immersed in the neighbourhood's kicking culinary scene brimming with fine-dining restaurants, hip bars and trendy cafés, but you're in a quieter, more residential area of NYC, away from the hustle and bustle of Midtown Manhattan. And yet, only a sixteen-minute walk from the Empire State Building and a fifteen-minute wander to the world's most visited tourist attraction – Times Square. When – full of pizza, cheesecake and skyline views from the Top of the Rock – you do eventually tick everything off your day's itinerary list and return home, you'll find a bright and colourful apartment awaiting you. Put your feet up on the L-shaped sofa or whip up a couple of lite bites to eat around the industrial-chic dining table – complete with quirky pink chairs that we really loved. Both bedrooms benefit from unique artwork and even more vibrant scatter cushions, so there's no fighting over who gets which room.

  • No time for average – We reject thousands of homes worldwide, so you don't have to.
