This is a beautiful apartment (seriously, people say "wow" when they first visit) in a great and very accessible location. It’s in great shape: all appliances are working well as we were the first to live here when we bought and moved in (14 years ago).
We are looking to rent our home for a year or more, starting in September. We are somewhat flexible on move-in dates depending on the furniture arrangement. We can remove remaining furniture if you wish, or leave the items that are there (these include: a queen bed frame and bedside tables, dining table and chairs, bar stools, small sofa in the library, trees).
We have lived here as a couple working from home for several years. We built mezzanines where we meditate. Note that the mezzanines and stairs may not make the place entirely secure for small children (the rail is not weight bearing).
Rent is $6200/m (inc. bike storage, water, gas, gym, heat) + electric and wifi are separate.

Hi folks! We are two meditation teachers who live in Chicago, as one of us is in a PhD program there. We love our home in New York, and hope to find tenants who will love it and care for it as much as we have. Longer term, we are considering selling the condo, so there is an option for a rent to buy lease, if there is interest.
Ideally 3 X the rent in income.
Security deposit.

The application process is run by the Management Company of the condo, and there are some associated application fees, but there is no broker fee.
