Description
This rarely available high floor 1 Bedroom residence offers breathtaking views of the surrounding cityscape with your own private 83 sq ft balcony that allows you to have a full view of the Macy's July 4th fireworks. The 726 sq ft interior features sleek oak pearl hardwood flooring, extra high ceilings, central air (Honeywell WiFi thermostat that can be controlled by your phone), spacious walk-in closet, and Bosch washer/dryer. The open kitchen is outfitted with Italian SMEG oven and dishwasher; and the Liebherr refrigerator seamlessly integrates into a modern backdrop of white pine cabinetry and Corian tiles and countertops. The bathroom is cast in a subdued color palette of gray, light wood, and crisp white, featuring Darius Design fixtures and custom-mounted teak cabinetry. Pebbled tiling, Himarchal stone wall, and a deep, freestanding tub round out the luxurious offering.
A computerized system lights the lobby walls and exterior of Murano in a different hue every hour transforming the all-glass building into a glowing, sculptural wonder. Surrounded by a serene "urban lake", residents will enjoy a wealth of amenities including a full time concierge, gym, on-site garage, bike storage, lounge, landscaped garden with grills, and a common terrace that spans the width of the building. Additionally, this building has 421a tax abatement until 2026, which is a rare find these days.

About Long Island City
View All Long Island City ListingsLong Island City sits directly across the East River from Midtown Manhattan, reachable in one stop on the 7 train. LIC has added more than 12,000 residential units since 2015, transforming former industrial blocks into a corridor of glass-tower condos, converted loft co-ops, and rental high-rises along the waterfront. Gantry Plaza State Park, MoMA PS1, and the Hunters Point Library anchor the neighborhood’s cultural identity. Median condo prices run roughly 30-40% below comparable Manhattan waterfront units, drawing both first-time buyers and investors looking for appreciation in one of the city’s highest-growth zip codes.
