If its your time to be a Manhattan homeowner rather than a wannabe, this cozy studio is the ticket to achieving your goal! Bathed in light by three oversized windows and enhanced by 9 ceilings and warm hardwood floors, the space feels airy and comfortable, providing the backdrop for your own slice of life in Carnegie Hill.

Built in 1903 as the Highlands Hotel, this charming and impeccably maintained, 8-story building is located on a beautiful tree lined block between Lexington and Park Avenues. It was converted in 1987 to a highly sought-after co-op. 160 East 91st Street boasts a live-in super and part-time door staff. Bike and storage rooms are also available as well as a new laundry room on the first floor. Pets, except for dogs, are welcome. Unlimited subletting is permitted after 2.5 years of ownership. Co-purchasing, pied-a-terre ownership, and guarantors are allowed. Super low maintenance makes this home cheaper to own than rent.

Just minutes from Central Park, 92nd Street Y, Whole Foods, and Asphalt Green, 160 East 91st is also convenient to Upper East Side restaurants, shopping, and the famed Museum Mile. Easy transportation is provided by the 4/5/6 and Q trains at 86th Street.
