Gramercy open houses to check out this weekend

Welcome to the weekly Open House Tour, because who doesn't love a little real estate gawking? This time around, we're looking at what's on the market in Gramercy and its surrounding neighborhoods.

↑ For the price of $589,000, score this studio that brokerbabble describes as “Gramercy Zen.” The apartment has an interesting layout with 11-foot vaulted ceilings and a spiral staircase that leads to the elevated sleeping loft. Other touches include white exposed brick walls, an lovely open kitchen with a fancy breakfast bar, and large windows. [Floorplan]

When: Sunday, March 26 (12 p.m. to 1:30 p.m.)

↑ There is a lot to love about this two-bedroom co-op on East 22nd Street. It’s a prewar two-bedroom that spans 720 square feet and is decorated with hardwood floors, 10-foot beamed ceilings, custom built-ins, and a renovated kitchen. Asking price is $925,000. [Floorplan]

When: Sunday, March 26 (12 p.m. to 1:30 p.m., by appointment only)

↑ This studio can’t be much more than 350 square feet but for what it lacks in size it makes up for in what’s around it. The otherwise simple space boasts views of the Empire State Building and the Met Life Clock Tower. The actual space is pretty decent as well with a modest kitchen, open living room, and standard bathroom, asking $525,000. [Floorplan]

When: Sunday, March 26 (11:30 a.m. to 12:45 p.m.)

↑ Spanning roughly 700 square feet, this one-bedroom on East 18th Street is going for $750,000. The apartment is a space that can be appreciated for its simple yet elegant layout . There is a small open kitchen with a tiny breakfast bar, a sunny living room, shiny hardwood floors, and four large closets. [Floorplan]

When: Sunday, March 26 (2:30 p.m. to 4 p.m.)

↑ There isn’t much to brag about by way of design when it comes to this two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment on East 23rd Street, but it does measure around 1,000 square feet. One of the bedrooms is equipped with a porthole-style window and there is a massive skylight above the dining room but other than that, what you see is what you get. Asking price is a cool $1 million. [Floorplan]
