This 650-square-foot apartment is one of six located in an Irving Place townhouse built in 1900. The home retains details like a working wood-burning fireplace and 12-foot ceilings, while new additions include a renovated bathroom with marble mosaic, built-in bookshelves, and three floor-to-ceiling closets — all for 18 percent below the neighborhood median sale price. This listing is represented by Stephen Geller, Michael Russell and Jennifer Geller of Corcoran.
The recipient of a full renovation courtesy of the current owner, an architect, this co-op is located on the second floor of a 25-foot-wide townhouse. Modern upgrades include an in-unit washer and dryer, high-end kitchen appliances (Wolf stove, Liebherr fridge, marble countertops), and custom built-in closets. (It’s kept its wood-burning fireplace.) Other pluses include an east-facing terrace and basement storage. This listing is represented by Leslie Marshall and James Cornell of Corcoran.
It’s got a ratio of four closets to 1 bedroom, plus an in-unit washer and renovated eat-in kitchen. Assuming a 20 percent down payment, it can be yours for less than the median cost of renting in the neighborhood (currently $3,213). Added perk? The apartment can be sold fully furnished to make it truly turn-key. This listing is represented by Sylvester Estate of My Suite & Co.
