Property Description for 5-19 Borden Ave, 2-F

Welcome home to Apt #2F, a one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment at the Murano, one of the premier luxury buildings in Long Island City. An airy and bright atmosphere, private balcony, and low carrying costs—including a 421A property tax exemption through June 30, 2026—are just a few things that make this unique 689 sq ft condo an amazing place to call home. The front door opens to a large, loft-like living and dining space, lined with south-facing floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the apartment with natural light. The space is easily designed into separate eating and lounging areas while maintaining an open, conversational atmosphere. An LG washer and dryer is tucked away into its own laundry closet. Top of the line stainless steel appliances—like a Liebherr refrigerator and SMEG wall oven and gas stove—make the kitchen fit for even the most demanding home chefs, with a breakfast bar countertop that's perfect for meal prep and service. The living room has plenty of space to relax and leads right to your private balcony—the perfect place to dine alfresco, kick back with a drink at the end of the day, or just step outside for a breath of fresh air. Premium floor boards were recently installed throughout the apartment and are in pristine shape. The bedroom is big enough for a king bed, with more than enough space left for nightstands and dressers (though with these large dual closets, you may not need much more). The Murano is a 12 floor, 76 unit condominium building in Long Island City, one of the most exciting neighborhoods in NYC. Enjoy all the services and amenities you'd expect from a modern luxury building—a shared outdoor space, a fitness center, and a 24 hour doorman among them. The 7 train is just two blocks away at Vernon Blvd/Jackson Ave, with Manhattan just one stop away. Nearby Hunter's Point South Park is ideal for a picnic, exercising along the water, or taking in the most breathtaking views of the Midtown skyline. And when it comes to dining or nightlife, some of the city's best restaurants, bars, and breweries are just moments from your front door.

Quick Profile

Long Island City, the name does sound a little far away, like it requires a lengthy drive to get to. Think, again. Long Island City, also known as LIC, is nestled in the western corner of Queens along the East River. Midtown Manhattan is closer to Long Island City than it is to downtown Manhattan.

 LIC is bordered by Sunnyside to the east, the East River to the west, Astoria to the north, and Newton Creek which separates Queens from Greenpoint Brooklyn to the south. 

 A once-shabby manufacturing epicenter, the neighborhood is a mix of industrial, commercial and residential. In recent years it’s seen a rise in some seriously cool factors. Populated by young professionals, multi-ethnic immigrants, and hipsters, LIC has a happening nightlife scene, fantastic restaurants (some of them Michelin starred), art museums and galleries. Much of the waterfront access has been redeveloped into sustainable public green spaces with modern design.  

 Although much of the industrial / manufacturing companies have since left LIC, many still reside there. They tend to co-exist with new residential building development the same way they do in other neighborhoods like Williamsburg and Greenpoint.

 Office building developers and business tenants play a vital role in LIC too. It’s considered New York City’s fourth central business district next to Midtown, downtown Manhattan and downtown Brooklyn.

 As you traverse the streets of LIC, you’ll notice the change from block to block. Industrial warehouses on one block, a bustling Main Street, followed by a park block with sleek luxury high-rise buildings. It’s all part of the LIC vibe.

 For a small neighborhood, the transportation links are excellent. For starters, you just can’t beat living one subway stop from Manhattan (7 train). Other train lines include E, M, R, N, Q, and the G lines. There are also less conventional methods of transportation like the NYC Ferry, which offers three ferry landings. There is no shortage of CitiBike’s in LIC either. Many folks commute to work by way of cycling over the Queensboro Bridge.
