Just steps from Murray Park in Long Island City, Townhouse on The Park is a brand new, tech forward, luxury rental development offering 75 3-bedroom triplex apartments. Modern Spaces agent Andres Emilio Soto is exclusively handling marketing and leasing. Renter interest stems from the development’s proximity to the park and its other suburb-worthy amenities, such as private outdoor space for almost every unit via a private garden or rooftop balcony, wellness amenities like in-unit MIRROR home gym systems, “bonus” rooms (home office, nursery or gym), and ample space. Apartments range from 1,583-2,288 square feet, more than twice the size of the average NYC apartment.
A Sloan Kettering Registered Nurse, who currently lives in Astoria, purchased at 567 Ocean sight unseen due to her hectic schedule. The proximity to the iconic Prospect Park (less than half a mile away) was what heavily influenced her to move forward – she also plans to have a dog once she moves in, who she’ll be able to share the enjoyment of living by the park with. This represents an overall increase in activity in the mid-range condo market (specifically within the $500k to $1M range), as first-time homebuyers take advantage of low interest rates. MNS is the exclusive sales team for 567 Ocean.
