The entryway provides a coat closet and foyer leading into the kitchen. Outfitted with maintenance-free quartz countertops and backsplash that harmonizes perfectly with sleek imported chestnut and white-lacquer cabinetry, the open kitchen is the perfect place to prep a delicious meal. State-of-the-art stainless steel appliances include a Bertazzoni gas oven and paneled dishwasher-the stackable washer and dryer is whisper-quiet and efficient. And for that dash of Nordic charm, Scandinavian-designed kitchen hardware adds a subtle yet significant touch throughout.

Wide plank engineered oak floors, recessed lighting, large framed windows, and a well-designed layout create a bright and efficient living space. The bedroom accommodates king-sized furniture with large closets and excellent natural light thanks to its dual north and east exposures-an extra window from your private balcony gives extra dimension. The private balcony spans nearly 90 square feet-the largest among the one-bedroom residences at VELA-creating a rare opportunity for generous outdoor living.

In the bathroom, luxury is redefined-imported porcelain tiles provide a sleek backdrop to the Kingston soaking tub and Moen fixtures and hardware, inviting you to indulge.

Residents at VELA enjoy an array of amenities and direct access to the maturing Astoria waterfront. Amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness center with Peloton bikes, a roof deck with Manhattan skyline views and barbecue grills, a package room, bike storage, and a ButterflyMX smart intercom system.

Touted as one of the most desirable residential areas, western Astoria offers a quick commute to Manhattan, Queens and Brooklyn via ferry, bus and subways, as well as easy access to highways, shopping, parks and local restaurants.
