Prettiest NYC homes that hit the market this week

Every week, Curbed covers dozens of market listings that vary in price, location, size, grandeur, quirkiness, and other distinct characteristics. If they managed to capture our attention, that means there’s definitely something special going on. But some of these homes are so lovely that they warrant a special kind of notoriety as some of the prettiest homes currently up for sale in New York City. And so, here it is: four listing that have that special "je ne sais quoi" that separates them from the rest. Happy gawking!

↑A 4,200-square-foot co-op with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a large in-home art studio sectioned off by its current owner, artist Merrill Steiger, is on the market for $7.95 million. The apartment gets a good amount of light from its southern exposure, has an updated kitchen, and is chock-full of closet space.

↑In Chinatown, a chic, industrial one-bedroom just hit the market for $3.45 million. The 1,750-square-foot apartment is covered in luxe details, from the pine ceilings with rustic timber beams and original cast iron columns to the vast swathes of exposed white brick and the 12 custom steel-framed tilt-and-turn windows.

↑Built in 1903, this ostentatious $19.44 million Upper East Side townhouse has six bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, two kitchens, and an elevator connecting all of it. Gilded mirrors, frescos on the walls, huge chandeliers—along with seven wood-burning fireplaces are just some of its plush features.

↑The exterior for this $2.5 million century-old Ditmas Park home is undeniably beautiful, leading to the assumption that even more grandeur awaits within. However, the interiors are modestly charming, subtly accented with bay windows, beamed ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, skylights, and other prewar details.
