Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined block just west of Eighth Avenue, Apartment 6K at 310 West 55th Street offers a rare sense of tranquility in the heart of one of Manhattan’s most dynamic neighborhoods.
Located on the top floor of a prewar elevator building, this spacious studio has been thoughtfully updated while maintaining its original character. The generously sized living area comfortably accommodates both a seating area and dining table, with large south-facing windows overlooking the building’s courtyard and filling the space with soft, natural light throughout the day.
The apartment features a queen-sized Murphy bed and a second Murphy bed tucked just off the expansive entry hall, making it an ideal space for both everyday living and hosting guests. A separate, windowed kitchen is outfitted with updated appliances and includes a convenient pass-through for easy entertaining. The windowed bathroom has been refreshed while preserving its vintage charm, including original tilework and a classic tub.
Built in 1941, the building is part of a well-maintained, pet-friendly cooperative that offers a live-in superintendent, full-time doormen, central laundry, and bike storage. The 55th Street block between Eighth and Ninth Avenues is beloved during the winter months for its festive, artful holiday decorations that welcome all who celebrate.
Ideally situated near Lincoln Center, Whole Foods, the shops at Columbus Circle, the Museum of Arts & Design, and MoMA—and just minutes from Central Park, the Theater District, and multiple subway lines—this apartment offers easy access to the best of Midtown without being in the middle of the hustle.
Maintenance is reasonable, and the co-op permits pieds-à-terre, co-purchasing, and subletting with board approval.
Maintenance is $1,761/month. The owner is offering a $500/month concession for 1 year, bringing the effective monthly cost to $1,261.
