Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Centrally located in Gramercy Park, this stylish studio apartment makes a great base for those who want to live like a true NYC local. Here, you're just a short stroll away from the Empire State Building and the Flatiron for days spent sightseeing, as well as plenty of vibrant restaurants and fun-filled bars for nights out on the town. Inside, the apartment is cosy and compact, but we love the city-style decor, with exposed brickwork and large windows that add to its authentic feel. Sure, there's not a load of space – but with the whole of NYC on your doorstep, you might find you won't need it.

Local guide
About Kips Bay
Kips Bay is a mainly residential neighbourhood, moments away from the rush of Midtown, which has lovely waterfront views across to Brooklyn and Queens. The neighbourhood combines historic brick townhouses with new high-rise apartments, and is home to some of the country's best hospitals - a good neighbourhood for the hypochondriacs amongst you perhaps? Some people accuse it of being non-descript and, it's true, it's definitely not going to win...
