Up first on our list of NYC homes with central air is this Kensington, Brooklyn cutie. Convenient built-ins span one wall of the bright and airy living room, making decor and storage a breeze. There’s also a Murphy bed tucked into the corner so you can invite guests to stay over with peace of mind. A private terrace off the expansive living/dining area provides a little slice of paradise: It’s the ideal place for starting and/or ending your days. Listed at $499K, this 1-bedroom home not only boasts central AC, but the air, heat, hot water, and gas are all included in the monthly maintenance fee.
This Flatiron studio has all the makings of a perfect starter home. The $650K unit benefits from an entire wall of exposures that look down onto the bustling street below. The home’s abundance of natural light illuminates its thoughtful layout, which includes a dedicated bedroom nook tucked behind a privacy wall. And, of course, central air keeps you comfortable and cool throughout the dog days of summer, but if you decide to step out of your unit, the building features amenities like a 24-hour doorman, laundry, storage, a bike room, and a garage.
Next up we have a 2-bedroom retreat in Forest Hills, Queens. New hardwood floors cover every surface of the space, and well-placed pops of colorful paint add dimension to the different rooms. In addition to central air, the larger building offers convenient amenities such as a 24-hour doorman and close proximity to Flushing Meadows Corona Park. Asking $419K, this home is the lowest priced on this list. Sweet!
Another 2-bedroom Queens offering awaits us, this time in Bay Terrace. $675K gets you an extra-large kitchen with expansive countertops for meal prep. The kitchen flows directly into a dedicated and intimate breakfast space, but if you’re hosting a larger group don’t worry: The condo’s main living area is big enough for a full sized dining table that won’t crowd your TV set-up. Besides central air, there are so many perks to living at The Bay Club: An indoor/outdoor pool, racquetball courts, a full gym, and an on-site restaurant are just the start! Not to mention the proximity to the beautiful and historically significant Fort Totten Park.
Last up on our tour of NYC homes with central air is this sun-dappled Astoria 1-bedroom. Priced at $789K, this stunning home features a kitchen with chic gray backsplash tile and king-size bedroom big enough for multiple furnishings. You’ll get central AC, of course, plus an in-unit washer/dryer and expansive balcony.
