This calming home-from-home is close enough to nip into the city on the subway, yet sits in a quiet and friendly neighbourhood in Astoria, Queens. Surrounded by leafy green parks, independent coffee shops, and a host of world cuisine eateries, it's the perfect spot for those looking to see the sights of NYC with a comforting place to call home outside of the concrete jungle. Inside, from the moment you enter the home, there's a real sense of space, with an open concept floor plan and clever design. Natural light floods into the living room through the windows and neutral tones of grey, white and moody blue create a soothing space to relax in after a day wandering the city. The sleek white kitchen comes with an equally elegant dining room that's perfect for big American breakfasts while the dedicated work desk accommodates those in town on business. Whether you're strolling through the local green spots, living it up in the city, or in-and-out with work, this charming apartment is a rare pocket of calm withdrawn from the hustle and bustle.

Local guide
About Astoria
Come to Astoria, in the northern part of Queens, to taste some delicious Greek food, see great art, and enjoy the lovely waterfront with its stunning views across to Manhattan's skyline. It's a pretty large neighbourhood so it varies a fair amount depending on where exactly you end up - it might not be the most glamorous or fancy part of the city, but it's got a loveable, laid-back charm,...
