Calling all Swifites! The first stop on our tour of NYC open houses for August 10 and 11 is located on Cornelia Street, an idyllic street in the West Village and the title of one of the pop star’s massive hits. Boasting a total of 19(!!!) windows, this corner condo is flooded with natural sunlight, illuminating its intersecting ceiling beams and cozy nooks. A deep soaking jacuzzi tub in the primary bathroom is the pinnacle of serenity, and the kitchen — with its abundant cabinetry and designer appliances — is a home chef’s dream.
Check out this cute Chelsea co-op. Rustic wood beams and columns bisect the unit’s flexible open floor plan, complementing the pre-war whitewashed exposed brick and dark flooring. A sweeping wall of built-in shelves makes storage easy breezy. Plus it comes with an attached rolling ladder — so go ahead and live out all your librarian dreams! More #cottagecore beams await you in the home’s one bedroom, which is big enough for a full furniture set in addition to a desk. Fashionistas, take note: the bedroom also comes with not one, not two, but three custom closets.
Here’s another 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom home, this time located in Midtown South. The front door leads to an expansive foyer that shows off the soaring 11-foot ceilings. From there you’ll enter the massive living room, which boasts gorgeous light wood floors underfoot and pristine white beams overheard. Around the corner lies the sunny and spacious bedroom, which comes with a convenient walk-in closet. With a full-time doorman, private rooftop deck, super flexible subletting and gifting policies, plus a price tag under $1 million, this home is a no-brainer.
Our lone Brooklyn offering, this penthouse pad is an absolute aesthetic dream. Stately concrete accents stand out against crisp white walls and sharp black edges. Only the best materials were used in the design, like the quartz kitchen countertops and hardwood floors arranged in a mesmerizing herringbone pattern. Each of the home’s three bedrooms provide tranquil escapes, while the two renovated bathrooms look like they were lifted straight out of a luxury hotel. But the best part of the unit is undoubtedly the private terrace, which juts out directly from the combination living/dining room. Primed for indoor-outdoor living, this space is truly special.
Last but certainly not least on our open house roundup for August 10 and 11 is this Murray Hill 1-bedroom. Conveniences abound in this recently renovated home, from a brand new wall-through A/C to custom track lighting. But it’s still got that classic New York charm in the form of gleaming hardwood and great city views. A sweet shared patio makes it easy to take advantage of the balmy NYC weather. And for less than $500K, the price is certainly right.
