Description Rockefeller Hearth: New York

Experience NYC living at its utmost authentic at this rustically charming townhouse in Hell's Kitchen. Sitting right in the core of the Big Apple, walk nine minutes and be amongst the neon-lit excitement of Times Square, grab a pizza slice at a surplus of traditional Italian-New York diners, and ensure you take to the Top of the Rock – a thirteen-minute stroll through the concrete jungle – for skyline views over the city. And after a day wandering Manhattan, tread back to your old-school brown house and sink into the soft suede sofa in a calming living space that benefits from plenty of sunlight, pops of colour and dark wooden flooring. Enjoy a nightcap together in the elegant dining area, before heading upstairs to hit the hay. The city that never sleeps? We'll see about that. The cosy bedrooms will soon have you feeling all homely and settled, with exposed brick walls, tasteful artwork, ornamental fireplaces and an array of books to gently drift you off to the land of nod.

Home truths:
*Do note that one of the bedrooms does not have air-conditioning
*Due to the excellent location, it can get a little noisy throughout the day, with frequent construction and traffic
*While there's no parking here, you won't need a car to get around – the nearest subway station is three minutes walk
