We’re looking for someone to take over our sunny, East River–facing two-bedroom, one-bath apartment in Peter Cooper Village, starting February 1, 2026 (with some flexibility on the move-in date). The lease runs through June 30, 2026, and whoever takes over will have the option to renew for one or two years at the end of the term.

The apartment is unfurnished, spans 944 square feet, and sits on the ninth floor of 541 E 20th Street, offering beautiful morning light and unobstructed East River views from every window. It has been recently remodeled with a Platinum finish and features stainless steel appliances, an open kitchen with a breakfast bar, and an in-unit washer and dryer—a rare convenience in Peter Cooper Village. The space works wonderfully for a small family, with a bright, open feel and plenty of room for both comfort and function.

Rent is $6,304 per month, which includes heat, electricity, gas, and air-conditioning charges, and is roughly 10–15% below the current market rent for similar units in the complex. Before move-in, the apartment will be deep-cleaned and freshly repainted.

As part of the StuyTown/Peter Cooper Village community, you’ll have access to multiple playgrounds, basketball and pickleball courts, and community activities throughout the year. The building is just steps away from the East River promenade, perfect for morning walks or evening strolls. It’s also directly across from the Stuy Fitness gym, and within easy walking distance of Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Target, and other neighborhood essentials.

Transportation is extremely convenient, with the M23 and M9 buses and Stuy Cove ferry just outside, and the M14 bus and L train a short walk away. The apartment is zoned for PS 40, one of the most sought-after elementary schools in the area, and there are several daycare and Pre-K options nearby.

If you’re looking for a bright, modern apartment with all utilities included and an unbeatable location in one of Manhattan’s most family-friendly communities, this is a wonderful opportunity.
