314 West 56th Street #2A

Welcome to Apartment 2A at 314 West 56th Street, a spacious and beautifully updated alcove studio offering the best of both worlds: an incredibly convenient Midtown location paired with a quiet, serene setting overlooking the gardens behind the building. Enter through a long, elegant entry hallway lined with three oversized closets, providing an impressive amount of storage from the moment you walk in. Updated hardwood floors and overhead lighting continue throughout the apartment. The updated kitchen offers a full suite of appliances, including a and brand-new Liebherr refrigeration, Miele dishwasher, and Bertazzoni stovetop and oven. Abundant cabinetry extends all the way to the ceiling, providing excellent storage, while generous counter space makes the kitchen both attractive and highly functional. Just outside the kitchen is a dedicated dining area that flows naturally into the large living room, which also features additional built-in storage. The oversized sleeping alcove is large enough to comfortably accommodate either a king- or queen-size bed with plenty of room to spare, allowing the apartment to feel much more like a true home than a typical studio. The beautifully updated bathroom offers additional storage, an oversized medicine cabinet, and a glass-enclosed shower with sliding doors. Perhaps most appealing is the apartment's peaceful south-facing exposure via brand new windows installed by the building just last year. The windows face the rear of the building toward a beautiful garden setting, allowing for excellent natural light while remaining remarkably quiet and removed from the energy of Midtown. 314 West 56th Street is a very well-managed building with laundry conveniently located in the basement. The building also boasts a beautiful private rooftop for residents! Located between Eighth and Ninth Avenues, the building puts you just minutes from Central Park, Columbus Circle, the Theater District, shopping, restaurants, multiple subway lines, and virtually everything Manhattan has to offer. It is a rare combination: all the convenience of being in the center of the city, while inside the apartment it feels bright, calm, and surprisingly serene.
