If lugging dirty laundry to the nearest laundromat in the middle of a polar vortex has got you down—or maybe you dread tackling that bottomless sink of dirty dishes after a holiday party—perhaps it’s time for an apartment upgrade. Just in time for the holidays, the team at StreetEasy rounded up Manhattan’s best neighborhoods for the most sought-after amenities.
StreetEasy looked at for-sale listings with elevators, doormen, washer/dryers, pet-friendliness, and dishwashers to find the most amenity-rich neighborhoods. If all you want this holiday season is to rush upstairs in your elevator, snuggle up with Fido, and let the dishwasher do its thing, be sure to check out our list to find a new apartment with your top priority amenity.
Methodology: StreetEasy looked at all available for-sale listings in each neighborhood in Manhattan from September 2013 through August 2014 to determine the share that included one of these five sought-after amenities: elevators, doormen, pet-friendliness, dishwashers, and washer/dryers. Results are ranked by the Manhattan neighborhoods with the largest percentage of listings with each amenity.
