Friday boredom alert! We’re launching a new occasional feature, The Six Digit Club , in which we take a look at a newish-to-market listing priced under $1 million, because nice things sometimes come in small packages. Price: $499,000 Address: 230 East 71st Street, #3A Size: 700 square feet Maintenance/CC: $959 This 1BR, 1BA co-op last sold for $547,000 in 2006, and the current asking price is chopped from a $575,000 starting point this time around. Given its proximity to Second Avenue, those savings might be worth investing in a few years’ worth of earplugs. But there’s also a bike room, so you won’t be trapped transportationless while waiting for the subway to come in. · Listing: 230 East 71st Street #3A [Corcoran] · 230 East 71st Street [StreetEasy]
