Badge Building at 10-55 47th Ave. #5C

No Broker’s fee.

Rarely does the term, “unicorn” apply to rentals in Long Island City but this apartment has it all- great space, amazing light, open views, 11-foot ceilings, and more closet space and storage than you will know what to do with. This apartment was just refreshed with refinished floors and paint and is on the coveted, original side of The Badge Building with, what are by today’s standards, overly generous floorplans. Both bedrooms will easily fit king-sized beds plus desks, dressers, Pelotons or whatever else you might want. The primary suite includes dual closets with another closet’s worth of storage above and a spacious ensuite bathroom with an over-sized, walk-in, glass shower.

The kitchen enjoys an abundance of clean, white stone countertops and the rest of the space is outfitted by custom Pedini cabinets and stainless appliances. Soaring, arched columns help define the living, dining and entryway spaces and hint at The Badge Building’s pre-war origins as an industrial loft space. Finally, adding to the storage convenience of the apartment is the walk-in coat closet and in-unit full size washer and dryer.

Sorry No Pets.
