351 West 47th Street in Midtown West, Manhattan. A rare, turnkey value-add opportunity with all major capital improvements already complete. Strong in-place NOI delivers an immediate return on investment, with one vacant unit poised to increase income by almost a third upon lease-up. The coveted Tax Class 2B designation further positions this asset for meaningful long-term appreciation as Manhattan’s rental market continues its upward trajectory.

Classic New York architecture meets modernized interiors, creating an appealing product with strong long-term lessee retention. The vacant unit also presents an owner-occupancy option, with the remaining units generating income sufficient to support carrying costs.

This is a clean, well-capitalized asset in a supply-constrained submarket – condition, location, and upside in a one offering.
