The Upper East Side is known for its glitz and glam – from luxury shopping to its exclusive private schools – this is where the crème de la crème of NYC reside. It doesn't hurt that Central Park runs along this upscale neighbourhood either (under a twenty-minute stroll away), offering a leafy escape in hot summers and a romantic haven in the depth of winter. The fact that some of the world's most famous museums, such as The Guggenheim, call this part of Manhattan home is just the cherry on top. Back home, this stylish studio is a picture of modern chic and Scandi design. Whip up a couple of lite bites in the marble kitchen, before settling down on gold-accented chairs around the swanky breakfast bar for a couple of evening cocktails. Work from home at the sleek white and light wood desk, or sink into the striking mango-coloured sofa after a long soak in the rainfall shower. Whatever you do when the day's out, this trendy spot has you more than covered – it’s an innovative and brilliant use of compact space.

Home truths
At just over three-hundred feet, this home is very small – although the space has been really well-thought-out to make the most of the compact size
As its a studio apartment, the bedroom is part of the living space
This home is housed in a building with no lift access, and being on the third floor, you'll have to climb fifty-one steps to get to the front door – not suitable for those with limited mobility and remember to pack light
You won't have keys - instead, there is a lock controlled by an app
