This incredible penthouse apartment in the NoMad area of Manhattan is in a prime location to see all the sights and attractions on offer in the city that never sleeps. Plus, it offers space that you will rarely see in this city. A large indoor living area offers an ample kitchen with a breakfast bar, plenty of comfortable sofa seating, an office space with a fireplace to catch up on your work, and even a walk-in wardrobe to store all your shopping from Macy’s and Time’s Square – a twenty-three-minute walk away. Plenty of Manhattan’s bucket list attractions are also nearby, with the East River reachable in twenty minutes on foot. The Empire State Building is only a short ten-minute walk away, or for a different view from above the city, the Rockefeller Center is reachable in twenty-seven minutes on foot. The home’s crowning glory, however, is the private rooftop terrace where you can enjoy your morning bagel with stunning views of the cityscape, including catching a glimpse of the top of the Empire State Building – which is a short fifteen-minute walk from here. The rooftop terrace also has comfortable seating under a shaded awning surrounded by plants, perfect for... relaxing with a good book when you need a break from exploring the city. Plus, why not take a dip in the plunge pool on warmer days, and then dry off in front of the roaring fire? We would also love to return to the rooftop at night to cook on the barbecue and enjoy our meals alfresco accompanied by the fantastic panoramas and the sounds of the bustling city below.

About Murray Hill
Murray Hill's streets are filled with a mix of historic townhouses, modern apartment buildings and businesses. It's a down to earth and conveniently located part of town, popular with Midtown workers and recent college graduates. This is definitely not Manhattan at its most glamorous - it's decidedly no-frills, but has plenty of congenial, cheap and cheerful dining options, including the many Indian restaurants on what has become known as "Curry...
