Live like a real New Yorker at this loft home, located in one of the best neighbourhoods in the Big Apple. Situated between peaceful Kips Bay and affluent Gramercy Park, you'll have plenty of fashionable restaurants on your doorstep, while key attractions such as Madison Square Park and the Flatiron building are around a ten-minute stroll. Or browse the shops of Waterside Plaza, next to the East River, the same distance away. Pick up some local delicacies from one of the nearby 24/7 delicatessens (this is the City That Never Sleeps, after all) to enjoy back at this studio. We love its exposed brick walls, large windows and cheery yellow sofa. It's the perfect place to rest your feet after a busy day of sightseeing or work if you're here on business (there's a desk here too). Or rustle up some New York-style cuisine in the kitchen – everything you need is here.

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...
