It appears that Miraval Living has become the go-to building for people looking for a pied-a-terre in the city. It actually makes sense given the name affiliation, spa, services and east river location.

The building is also packed with amenities including an on-site state-of-the-art fitness facility, complete with a competition-sized pool, indoor rock-climbing wall and half-court for basketball and racquetball.  Miraval Living also offers a private yoga and pilates studio and separate locker rooms for men and women with sauna, steam and individual stall showers stocked with Miraval luxury bath products.  The Creative Arts Studio allows residents to take advantage of music and dance lessons, poetry readings and guest lectures, with an Activity Space that is perfect for kid-friendly arts and crafts.  This spring, Miraval Living will unveil the “Miraval Park,” which will be one of the features of the largest on-premise private lawn in Manhattan.

Pricing:

There are a variety of one-bedroom layouts, ranging in size from 611 to 826 square feet, still available in the 41-story condominium. They have also lowered their prices in response to the demands of today’s marketplace and one bedrooms are now starting at $724,500 going up to about $914,000.

Elaine Diratz, Managing Director of Corcoran Sunshine Marketing Group says, “Not only does every home at Miraval Living offer ideal spaces to take refuge from day-to-day stress, but every resident, from the one-bedroom buyer to our premier penthouse buyer, has exclusive access to the full suite of treatments, programs and services that has made the Miraval spa world renowned. The unbelievable offering of holistic services and amenities certainly helps to create a hotel-like quality about the building and the one-bedroom homes in particular have been attracting interest from pied-a-terre and first-time homebuyers.”

Finishes:

With immediate occupancy available, one-bedroom buyers can instantly enjoy their homes with kitchens outfitted with sculpted Corian countertops, deep basin skins, Basaltina lava stone backsplashes and commercial-grade appliances by Miele, Thearmador and Liebherr.  Bathrooms feature walls of custom-designed crema d’orcia bamboo-textured tiles, floors of honed Piombo tile and Zuma soaking tubs.

Investment Potential:

As previously stated, we feel that Miraval Living is a good investment, especially for a pied-a-terre buyer looking for a place in Manhattan. This building is definitely for people who want it all – services, amenities and nice finishes.
