347 W 57th St APT 6B, New York, NY 10019

THE APARTMENT & BUILDING: If location is key, then apartment 6-B would make a perfect first-time purchase or city pied-et-terre, considering it's within arm's reach of Central Park, Columbus Circle, and other enticing neighborhood amenities. This 620 square-foot, one-bedroom apartment faces north, overlooking West 58th Street through oversized, double-paned windows in the living room and bedroom. The images and floor plan reveal a desirable layout: a separate kitchen equipped with stainless steel appliances, ample cabinet storage, and a sufficient-sized countertop. Two noteworthy features are the entry closet being an unexpectedly generous size and the semi-new flooring in excellent condition. Please note that the parquet flooring that is pictured has been replaced.
