New York apartments are notoriously small by nature. People are living in a coveted real estate market, so they'll pretty much settle for anything. Ha, ha!
But there's one particular studio apartment that has caught the eye of the interwebs for a good reason. It has a shower in the kitchen. Say what? You heard that right. Isn't that bizarre?
Not only that but its rent is also $1,650 a month. That's quite reasonable when it comes to New York City.
I can honestly say I've never encountered anything like that in my search for an apartment before. Ha, ha! Why would they do that? I have no idea. Any guesses?
You can just slip into the shower while your coffee is getting made. Or take that protein powder right in there with you. LOL!
How about hanging up some drapes and making the shower into extra storage space? I think I could work with that idea.
And for the size of it, it's definitely a very good price indeed. After all, this area is pretty popular. In comparison to some other shoebox apartments, this is pure luxury.
There's also a sectioned off sleeping area. This sounds like a dream come true to anyone who's like a Carrie Bradshaw indeed.
A little small by my standards but what can you do. You can't always have it all. Am I right? For a place in New York, this is pretty much what you would get.
You can do a whole runway show here if you really wanted to. I can see the girls from Sex and the City strutting their stuff over here.
Many thought that the apartment's affordable rent was probably due to the unique shower situation. There's always a catch.
It just goes to show that if you want to live in New York, prepare to pay a lot more for fewer amenities.
Lots of older apartments have showers or bathroom features in the kitchen... personally, I am not a fan of this layout.
You can take snacks in the shower with you, which is always a win. I just can't shake the feeling that this layout wouldn't work if you had roommates.
I guess it didn't matter in the end because the place ended up renting out in just a mere two weeks after the listing went live.
