This West Village apartment is polished in every sense of the word. Not only is the colour scheme bright whites and neutrals greys, but the gleaming kitchen, stylish bathrooms and plush lounge area are effortlessly chic. Generously sized windows let the light stream into the living space and bedrooms, and the extra perks like the wine fridge and walk-in closet really make this place shine. Kick-off the day with a morning coffee at the marble-topped breakfast bar, then head out and explore this lively area. In the evenings, put your feet up and chill on the sofa before enjoying a night on the town, or if you're in the mood to cook, enjoy a delicious at-home dinner instead. The West Village locale is a dream for creative types – it's where artists, poets and designers have been creating for decades, and that bohemian spirit is alive and well in the jazz clubs, trendy bars and boutique shops dotted along the tree-lined streets. You'll be wonderfully close to the Hudson River, the High Line and The Whitney Museum of American Art in a quiet and serene nook of the city - but never too far from the action, with the subway just a ten-minute stroll away.
