Our first stop in Chelsea might be the last for savvy buyers. This downtown apartment deal is set in The Thomas Eddy, a co-op with generous purchasing rules. (Not to mention a doorman, parking, and laundry on every floor!) The apartment feels bright and open, partially thanks to the bedroom area that sits behind a pony wall, up a few steps. Plus, there’s a dishwasher in the kitchen and a cute little balcony for coveted outdoor space.

We stick around prime Chelsea for our next great downtown apartment deal. This 1-bedroom is set in an elegant, historic brick building on a lovely tree-lined block. Tall ceilings, new windows, and a freshly tiled bathroom make it even more compelling. Peekaboo views of the Empire State Building don’t hurt, either! Plus, it’s all just a block away from the High Line.

There’s a lot to love about this oversized studio, starting with the price. What an incredible downtown apartment deal! In addition, it’s located in a distinctive Emory Roth prewar co-op. The space runs 575 square feet under beamed ceilings, with a large separate dressing area. The open kitchen is nicely outfitted with a breakfast bar and dishwasher, too.

This 1-bedroom with a Juliet balcony puts you in coveted Gramercy Park for well under $600K. (In Gramercy Park, not on it — alas, there’s no key to the park with this downtown apartment deal.) Features include exposed brick, nice hardwoods, sunny south-facing windows, and a double closet at the entry. The modern kitchen has stainless appliances, including a dishwasher.

We end our tour of downtown apartment deals at Chelsea’s fabled London Terrace Towers. This glammed-up studio has just hit the market, and it makes quite an impression! A stylish and clever remodel includes a shiny new Carrara marble kitchen with dishwasher. There are also new hardwoods, custom built-ins, and a sleeping alcove with a built-in Murphy bed.
