NYC Open Houses: 5 Apartments to See This Weekend

Opportunity knocks in Prospect Lefferts Gardens, just two blocks to Prospect Park. Intrepid buyers would be smart to take a look at this 1899 barrel-front limestone townhouse. It’s 2,360 square feet and configured as a two-family with 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, which could generate rental income if remodeled as is or converted to a single-family for a truly enviable residence in a desirable Brooklyn neighborhood. Just think: No co-op or condo maintenance fees and taxes are just under $550. Kirsten Syrett at Compass is the sellers agent.

This floor-through 2-bedroom captures the spirit of North Park Slope, thanks to its top-floor setting in a three-unit brownstone. Love the updated eat-in kitchen, wood-burning fireplace, skylight, in-unit washer and dryer, and the private deck to expand living space to the outdoors. Listing agent Nathalie Roy at Corcoran says the financials for this self-managed co-op are strong, with monthly costs at $760. There’s storage in the basement, too.

You can see Greenwich Village from your window in this SoHo 1-bedroom on Macdougal and Houston — one of NYC’s more iconic intersections. It’s a third-floor walk-up, and worth the easy climb thanks to a renovated marble bathroom and new kitchen area. Listing agent Shari Matluck at Compass notes the smartly designed storage space and closets. The building is pet-friendly and boasts a shared patio deck. Subletting permitted after two years is a nice bonus.

Authentic NYC comes roaring through in this 2-bedroom loft on the Greenpoint waterfront. Original timber beams and brick set the tone for this sunny residence, one of 15 units in this condo building converted in 2005 from an 1800’s fur factory. Split bedrooms at each end of the 1,200-square-foot residence allow privacy. Central air and in-unit washer and dryer, too. Listing agent Ari Harkov at Halstead notes that the $988 maintenance fees will drop to $494 in 2029 after a special assessment expires. The building’s shared roof deck with killer views is undergoing renovation.

Here’s a sweet 1-bedroom perch in the heart of Chelsea. It’s set in an inviting 1900’s building on a tree-lined street close to everything from the Joyce Theater, Chelsea Market, the High Line and so much more. Well-designed interior retains original charm but maximizes space with a walk-in closet and a storage loft. Love the roof deck, on-site laundry, bike room, and live-in superintendent. Vivek Batra at Corcoran is the listing agent.
