A pied-à-terre for two in New York City doesn’t come much chicer than this. But what would we expect - this is Upper East Side, after all. The immaculately presented apartment stands alongside the classic brownstones and upscale high-rises of the well-heeled district. Historically home to New York’s wealthy elite, UES still retains much of its grandeur and is brimming with bars, classic eateries (think old-school Italian), and fashionable foodie hotspots, all just a jaunt away. And when it’s time to cast your net wider in this captivating city, hop on the subway one block away. Despite its central location, it’s surprisingly quiet inside this stylish home, meaning you can bank a peaceful night's sleep here, away from the clamour of downtown. Exposed brickwork and boho-inspired interiors make an impressive double act, all topped off with a generous helping of natural daylight throughout. Fire up the coffee pod machine and curl up on the sofa as you hatch plans for your day ahead. Just don’t laze around too long, UES is waiting.
