50 DEY ST

There's a version of apartment hunting where you walk in and immediately stop doing the mental math. This is that apartment. Fourteen-foot ceilings paired with 11-foot north and east-facing windows don't need much of a sales pitch, the light does the talking. The 1,258 square feet have been well cared for, with updated flooring and an extended master bathroom that earns its square footage. Blackout shades in the bedroom mean the sunrise is entirely optional. What makes this unit particularly smart as a purchase, not just a home, is the roughly 14 years still remaining on the Tax Abatement, a built in advantage every home owner wishes for. The building's 10,000 square feet of amenities read like someone actually thought about how residents spend their time: a common lounge and screening room for when you want company, a basketball court, a gym with Pelotons and a separate yoga room for when you don't, plus a sundeck, dog park, and children's playroom. And on top of all that, a complimentary weekday shuttle runs to the PATH during rush hour, turning the commute into a non-issue before the day even starts. Add 24-hour doorman service, a building that's clearly taken care of, and available parking for an additional fee, and the picture fills in quickly. With opportunities like this, settling on your next place should be out of the question!
