East Village

A renovated one-bedroom condo in an East Village building (really, Alphabet City, considering it’s located between Avenues C and D) is going for $899,000. The apartment has big windows that let in plenty of light, and lots of modern amenities: marble counters, high-end appliances, a chic bathroom, and more. The monthlies come in at just over $1,100, and the building has laundry and a virtual doorman.

The apartment, which is located on the ground floor of a brownstone building, also comes with a more than 400-square-foot private terrace.

Forest Hills

In Forest Hills, a large three-bedroom with a home office is going for $899,000. Two of the bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, and the common areas are also quite spacious. It’s located in one of the nicest parts of the neighborhood: Forest Hills Gardens, the planned enclave that’s full of charming Tudor-style home.

In a new condo on the Gowanus-Park Slope border (it’s located on the corner of Fourth Avenue and 15th Street), a one-bedroom condo is asking $899,000.
