NYC Open Houses August 22 and 23: Five to See This Weekend

Our first NYC open house for August 22 and 23 is a lovely 1-bedroom overlooking Gramercy Park. Its right-on-the-park address means — this is big — that a key to that magical private oasis comes with the deal. Set in a landmarked prewar building that offers a roof deck, laundry, and a bike room, the bright apartment features striking casement windows, beamed ceilings, and a walk-in closet. Contact a StreetEasy Expert on the listing for all the details.

This Upper West Side 3BR delivers major value for buyers who don’t mind a few flights of stairs. The charming walkup sprawls the entire top floor of a prewar building, chicly renovated with exposed brick, French doors, and upgrades galore. The sleek bathroom has double sinks, the open kitchen has loads of room to eat and cook, and there are no less than 11 windows. Mike Lubin at Brown Harris Stevens is the seller’s agent.

What a great buy just a block from Prospect Park! This home is double trouble with 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, 2 balconies, and 200 StreetEasy shoppers already taking a serious look. It spans 923 square feet and checks all the boxes: plenty of storage, in-unit laundry, fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher and breakfast bar. It’s one of 23 units at the Alvora, a condo built in 2007. Listed by Georgine Paulin at Compass.

First-time buyers will want to hustle to Hell’s Kitchen to take a look at this 1-bedroom. For the price of a studio, it offers a bright living room, a generous windowed kitchen with plenty of counter space, and a small but separate bedroom. It’s move-in ready, with laundry and storage in the building. Donald Kemper at Douglas Elliman notes that WiFi and cable are included in the maintenance.

This multi-unit Greenwood townhouse has been a media star, thanks to its handsome interiors. A remodel shows off the pine and oak floors, tin ceilings, whitewashed walls, and new kitchens and bathrooms. It offers a slew of possibilities: Currently configured as a legal 3-family, it could become a 2-family with an owner’s triplex or a single-family home. A huge backyard has just been renovated, with a deck for expanded living space. Danielle Nazinitsky at Compass is the seller’s agent.
