For $1.25 million, one lucky buyer can avoid Midtown’s notorious Christmas crowds and see the neighborhood’s most glittering attraction from the comfort of their own home.
A one-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom apartment on the 14th floor of the Centria at 18 W. 48th St. has just been listed for that amount, according to a StreetEasy listing update — and it boasts a view immutable Rockefeller Center Christmas tree from his living room.
At just under 1,000 square feet, the residence has floor-to-ceiling windows and 10-foot ceilings that help provide a beautiful panorama of the festive display right on the square below.
Each day, a prospective owner can sip cocoa from inside while watching the 750,000 daily visitors brave the elements to see the dazzling tree, which this year came from West Stockbridge, Massachusetts.
“It’s extremely rare to have a look like this,” agent Nicole Palermo of Serhant, who shares the listing with colleague John Shaughnessy, told The Post. “It provides such a special moment, obviously in New York during the holidays.”
This year’s tree was lit in December. 4 and will remain in place until mid-January. The spectacle attracts around 125 million visitors a year.
The home, which also includes a coveted washer and dryer, also comes packed with luxury finishes. Think a sleek Italian Driade stainless steel kitchen and a marble bathroom with Plumbing fixtures.
Building amenities include a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a resident manager, a professional hotel kitchen with a bar, and a business center.
Beyond the Christmas tree, the overall 34-story building also boasts enviable views across Rockefeller Plaza. Landmarks like St. Patrick’s Cathedral, the Empire State Building, and even the Hudson and East Rivers are part of the landscape.
But these days, it’s the sight of the tree that makes the most of the fun.
“We are extremely excited to list this home, especially during this time of year,” Palermo said.
