Let’s kick things off with this airy one-bedroom in a prewar co-op building, asking $495K. It’s a perfect starter home, with north-facing oversized windows and beamed ceilings that usher in natural light. There’s a windowed kitchenette that meets the needs for basic meals and a sizable bedroom with a full wall of built-in shelving that’s perfect for displaying memorabilia or storing books. The Berkley offers a full-time doorman and laundry room and is conveniently located midway between Central Park and Riverside Park.

If you’re looking for a chic Upper West Side home with polished finishes, this one-bedroom might be it. Going for $649K, there’s several custom finishes throughout that add a unique touch — like the glass bar-height countertop that wraps along the kitchen wall to create a multifunctional space that’s perfect for working or gathering. A wall of movable glass panels partitions the open-concept living and dining areas from the king-sized bedroom. The four closets cover your storage needs, and the full-service co-op building offers everything from valet dry cleaning and laundry services to a children’s playroom and resident’s lounge. So many neighborhood gems are within a few steps, including Lincoln Center directly across the street and Columbus Circle and Central Park just a couple of blocks away.

Along West 75th Street, $795K can get you this fully renovated one-bedroom that’s also brimming with sunlight. The chef’s kitchen here is a beauty, compliments of its blue-colored custom cabinetry, marble herringbone backsplash, and a built-in extendable leaf table. The bedroom can host a king-sized bed and has a walk-in closet with custom storage solutions. And for the days when you don’t want to leave home, the building features a multi-tiered, planted roof terrace with views that allow you to admire Central Park and the Hudson River. 

$795K can also get you a corner bedroom on West End Avenue that spans an impressive 732 square feet. Southern and eastern exposures in various spaces throughout offer city views and direct natural light within the spacious rooms. The condo features all of your usual prewar gems like high ceilings, hardwood floors, and fairly large rooms. The building is a block away from Riverside Park and offers residents a landscaped roof deck that is perfect for catching sunsets and Hudson River views. Its other amenities include a fitness center, bike storage, and a laundry room.

And finally, a large co-op that’s asking $670K is up for grabs. The nearly 10-foot-high beamed ceilings steal the show here, though the generously proportioned rooms and hardwood parquet floors aren’t anything to scoff at either. It’s worth noting that the apartment is in a building designed by acclaimed NYC architect Emery Roth, whose Beaux Arts-style homes remain in high demand. Central Park is less than two blocks away and several restaurants are also within close range.
