It’s hard to believe, but we’re more than halfway through the month of October. Our favorite way to distract ourselves from the never-ending march of time? Incredible New York City real estate! This week we’ve got a wide variety of options across Manhattan and Brooklyn spanning a wide array of price points. But as always, if nothing here does it for you, there’s more where that came from.

First up on our NYC open house roundup for October 19 and 20 is a precious pre-war 2-bedroom unit. Nestled between Riverside Park and the northernmost tip of Central Park, this under $1 million Manhattan Valley home’s got good bones and even better renovations. This is most obvious in the living room, with its original crown molding and impressive wall of built-in shelves. An extra-long hallway to the two bedrooms features a gallery wall, just begging to display your most treasured pieces of artwork. A peek-a-boo window in the kitchen looks into the dedicated dining room, making socializing while hosting dinner parties a breeze.
We hope you’re sitting down for this one! Spanning a remarkable 3,290 square feet and offering a whopping five bedrooms and four bathrooms, this historic PLG townhouse is one for the books. Not one, not two, but *four* bay windows can be found throughout the home. The bathrooms have all been meticulously designed with vibey lighting and luxurious soaking tubs. A garden-level unit can be used to house guests or long-term rental tenants, boasting its own separate entrance, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a fully functional kitchenette. A lush garden and landscaped patio can be accessed by both units.
Next up we’ve got a stunning, sunny co-op located in pretty Prospect Park South. This modern, monochrome marvel’s got black-rimmed windows throughout that stand out against sparkling white walls. Diagonal hardwood slats and clerestory windows are just a few special features that make this home extra unique. The two bedrooms are situated on opposite sides of the floor plan, ensuring maximum privacy and noise control. And it’s pet-friendly! Grab your furry friend and take a stroll around the Kensington Dog Run, which is conveniently located across the street from the building.
Behold this Brooklyn Heights beauty! It’s got four closets, a cute corner window, and a wine fridge. If you think that a 1-bedroom home doesn’t allow for optimal socializing, this home will change your mind: the living space is a great place to gather with friends and family, as it’s big enough for a cozy sectional couch. The unit’s one bedroom is spacious as well, with room enough for a king-size bed and multiple furnishings. And, priced at $449K, this is the most affordable home on our list this week. Sweet!
Last but certainly not least on our NYC open house roundup for October 19 and 20 is this West Village wonder. Sunlight pours in from the slanted windows, shining light on the exposed brick walls that span the length of the living/dining room. More exposed brick awaits you in the bedrooms and lofted bonus space – WFH area, anyone? The open-concept kitchen boasts glass-front cabinetry, a deep farmhouse sink, and a large pantry with pocket doors. And with only seven other units in the building, peace and privacy are guaranteed.
