Description Cocktail Chameleon: New York

Forget Greenpoint and Astoria. It’s all about the East Village right now. Packed with vintage stores, dive bars and extraordinary eateries, you could spend a lifetime here and never get bored. You’ll find this stylish apartment slap-bang in the middle of it all, as well as just an eight-minute walk from all major subway lines. Yes, it’s compact (expected given its location), but its stylish interior is decked out with 60s kinetic art and hand-picked furniture. The icing on the cake is the private outdoor space – rarer than a unicorn in Manhattan. Enjoy sundown cocktails at your own alfresco tiki bar before heading out for the night. You’re in for a treat – the East Village keeps the excitement going long after other neighbourhoods have hit the pillow.

Home truths:
*There’s no living room but there’s a generous dining room and a sofa and TV in the second bedroom
*There’s a sofa bed in the guest bedroom to provide maximum flexibility of sleeping arrangements
