685 1st Avenue #14G

Hi, I am posting about a lease takeover/assignment for unit 14G in 685 First Avenue starting 1/1/23 and ending 11/30/23 - 11 months. Can be made available as soon as 12/19/22.

This is NOT a sublet - any renter would take over the lease directly from the building and be a normal renter like anyone else in the building.

Rent of $3,995 if start date is 1/1/23 or earlier (will give $1,144 upfront).

You would be stepping into a "COVID deal", with a monthly rent of $4,099, including membership at the building's incredible gym/pool/club/movie theater for two people. These units (K and G line) are currently on the market for roughly $5,300+ (take a look on StreetEasy).  This rent is ~$900 per month lower than the cheapest studio being offered in the building currently.

Apartment will be delivered as is but with no furniture etc.

Please reach out quickly if interested! I am not taking any sort of fee etc. or asking any more than the stated rent of the lease, I just want to get this done asap.

Here is a description of the unit:
Enormous One Bedroom with Floor-to-Ceiling Windows, Laundry-in-Unit and First-Class Amenities!

Unit faces the city; you can see the Chrysler building out of the bedroom and living room.

Residence:
This lavish one bedroom home boasts 900 sqft of luxury with floor-to-ceiling windows, white oak flooring, and only the highest quality materials flowing from one large space to the next. The kitchen was meticulously hand-crafted with custom white Italian lacquered cabinets, complemented by a clean tile backsplash, Caesarstone quartz counters, and high-end stainless-steel appliances, including a dishwasher.

The oak flooring perfectly contrasts the light wall hues and sunlight filling the open-concept living and dining room. The dining area is large enough for a long table creating a banquette style option for larger, more formal dinner parties, as well as a lounge area, creating a comfortable and relaxing environment for guests; a perfect blend of functionality and elegance.

The perfect combination floor-to-ceiling windows, natural light, and elegant finishes create a sophisticated bedroom oasis. The marble-clad bathroom features a sweeping quartz-counter, polished silver hardware and a deep soaking tub.

Additional amenities residents can enjoy within this apartment include an in-unit washer and dryer, dedicated lighting systems that can be controlled in each room to create a different experience for all who enter, numerous storage options, and multi-zoned heating and cooling system.

This apartment's rent is 7.09% cheaper than the median rent of $4,300 for a 1-bedroom apartment in Murray Hill, New York, NY.

The median is solely based on the area and the number of bedrooms. Listing-specific characteristics such as the number of bathrooms and the amenities will also impact the price.

The apartment is a unit offered at a monthly price of $3,995. This is a luxury doorman / elevator building. The building also boasts a fitness center to help residents stay in great shape. Both cats and dogs are allowed, but as always, double check with the manager about any specific pet concerns you may have. The kitchen conveniently includes a dishwasher. This is a No Fee apartment, meaning the manager or agent should not ask you for a broker fee (there may still be deposits and other move-in fees paid to the landlord).
