I am a licensed real estate broker and specialize in placing tenants in high-quality apartments that match their needs, budget, and timeline including both on-market and off-market opportunities. This spacious 5-bedroom, 2-bath apartment offers approximately 1,700 sq. ft. of living space on the 2nd floor, featuring a bright, open layout with excellent natural light throughout.
