West Village
In the West Village, a one-bedroom in an Art Deco co-op is asking $725,000. The unit itself is fairly basic: It has a nicely sized living room and bedroom, two closets, a long hallway, and a serviceable kitchen, but the location is excellent. It’s situated next to Abingdon Square Park, with plenty of transit options, shopping, and restaurants close by.

Midtown East
For $735,000, there’s a two-bedroom in the Beekman enclave of Midtown East. The apartment also has two and a half bathrooms, a ton of closet space (including a walk-in off the master bedroom), and a chic dining area. It’s located a few blocks from the East River waterfront in a co-op building.

Park Slope
A chic, renovated Park Slope co-op with one (small) bedroom is asking $735,000. On the plus side, the living room/kitchen area is lovely, with new appliances and cabinets, along with some exposed brick for character. There’s also a shared roof deck for residents of the building. On the downside, the bedroom is quite narrow.

Upper West Side
A two-bedroom co-op on the Upper West Side/Harlem border is going for $725,000. (The bedrooms are not exactly huge, but the space was once a one-bedroom, so could be transformed again.) There are some nice flourishes here, including built-in shelving in the living room and new kitchen appliances. It also has a good location, just one block from Riverside Park.
