Throughout New York, many companies projected September as the date when workers would be required to return to the office (possibly with vaccines required). However, with the delta variant on the rise, plans are changing and some New Yorkers might find themselves working remotely a little longer. Under such circumstances, private outdoor space and an in-building gym offer a welcome respite after a day of working from home. These amenities as well as a little extra space might sound unattainable, but we present a selection of two-bedroom homes offering exactly that.
