It’s going to be a warm spring weekend in New York City: the perfect atmosphere for open house hopping. We’ve found some real gems this week, including an energy-efficient brownstone in Bed-Stuy, an Upper West Side 2-bedroom with an amazing skylight, and an East Village loft with huge windows. If none of those are what you’re aiming for (or if you’ve checked them all out and are looking for more), check out many more listings on StreetEasy.
With 14 rooms, this Bed-Stuy brownstone is one of the largest open house listings we’ve ever seen. The Neo-Grecian townhouse includes a 6-bedroom residence and an additional garden duplex apartment. Recently renovated with a very modern focus on energy efficiency, the home takes little energy to heat or cool. The first floor houses an expansive living room and an eat-in kitchen, plus a wood-burning stove, custom walnut-veneer cabinets, and hand-cut Dutch tile backsplash. In the backyard there’s a deck above a beautiful planted flower garden, and a peach tree that blooms every spring.
If you’re looking to live in the East Village, you’ll find high ceilings and huge windows in this 1-bedroom, 2-bathroom loft apartment. The bedroom has custom California closets and built-in dressers, and there’s a full-sized washing machine and dryer in the second bathroom. There’s also a private attic space for storage. The building has a 24-hour doorman and communal roof terrace.
Crowds will turn out for the great light coming through the living room’s wall of windows in this Upper West Side co-op. With two windows, the primary bedroom is bright and has lovely French doors leading to a small office area. The second bedroom is special, too, with a skylight that takes up nearly the whole ceiling. What’s more, the apartment has two walk-in closets, an in-unit washer/dryer, and a pretty private terrace.
This West Village studio, located in an 1890-constructed building, has some truly lovely touches. Four large windows line up for great light and a view of beautiful Bedford Street below. There’s also a working fireplace, high ceilings, and a modern, streamlined kitchen. The boutique co-op building has a dedicated superintendent, on-site bike storage, and — despite its old age — an elevator.
You can make this Astoria apartment work as either a 2-bedroom or a 1-bedroom with an office. High ceilings and stone finishes throughout create an earthy, opulent look and feel. The ultra-modern kitchen has built-in appliances from Bosch, including a five-burner gas cooktop, a dishwasher, and marble countertops. There’s a washing machine and dryer and custom LED vanity mirrors in the bathroom, and the building offers a rooftop terrace and a gym.
