Welcome to 408 8th Avenue, Unit 5C — a sun-drenched Flex 2-Bedroom condo with a private terrace at the crossroads of Midtown Manhattan and the Hudson Yards Corridor.
Rarely does an opportunity like this surface in one of Manhattan's most coveted and rapidly evolving neighborhoods. Originally a generous one-bedroom, this unit has been thoughtfully converted into a true Flex 2-Bedroom layout — two distinct, private rooms that work beautifully as a primary residence or as a high-yield investment property. The versatility here is genuine.
The expansive living room spills effortlessly onto your private terrace, where golden-hour sunsets over the Hudson Palisades and the gleaming towers of Hudson Yards paint a nightly scene that never gets old. On the opposite end of the home, the bedroom wing offers a surprisingly peaceful escape from the pulse of the city — generous, quiet, and flooded with morning light. Multiple closets throughout ensure storage is never an afterthought.
The kitchen features marble finishes and premium stainless steel appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator. A full bathroom and rich hardwood floors complete a home that is as livable as it is investable.
Step outside and you are two blocks from Penn Station and Madison Square Garden, moments from the High Line, and surrounded by the best of New York's dining, culture, and transit. Every major West Side subway line — A, C, E, 1, 2, 3, N, Q, R, W — is at your doorstep.
This doorman, pet-friendly building offers a live/work policy, making it one of the most flexible condos in the neighborhood for professionals and investors alike.
