For under a million dollars, one can find all sorts of housing configurations: park- and subway-adjacent studios, one-bedrooms hidden in carriage houses or former shoe factories, and even the occasional true two-bedroom. We\u2019re combing the market for particularly spacious, nicely renovated, or otherwise worth-a-look apartments at various six-digit price points.\u00a0<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve got a couple of good fireplaces this week.<\/p>\n

A one-bedroom in a former seminary turned condos with 15-foot ceilings and cathedral windows. It\u2019s a bit of a funny one \u2014 there are two staircases (one off the grand living room and one off the foyer) that lead to two lofted rooms, though one has impossibly low ceilings. The open kitchen is basic, but the unflashy finishes appeal. You\u2019re only working with one closet, but the larger of the two lofted areas seems to offer additional room for storage. The bathroom is updated, and there\u2019s a Toto toilet complete with bidet. Monthlies come to $1,616 between fees and taxes. Amenities are basic: elevator, part-time doorman, multiple laundry rooms, and bike storage. The last tenant stayed ten years and is only asking for a little over $100,000 than what they paid a decade ago \u2014\u00a0a nice sign that a normal person lived there and liked it.<\/p>\n

Great floors and leafy south-facing views in this co-op studio on Horatio. There\u2019s also a spacious closet off the bathroom, which one imagines the future West Village girl who gets the place will need for all of her Reformation and Brandy Melville bags. Bathroom is beige and uneventful. The kitchen is teeny and has just a half-fridge, but I do like the way it\u2019s been set up and the appliances are new. The fireplace has been removed, but the book nook that\u2019s replaced it looks really sweet. Monthlies are $1,010, and amenities are nil. Though there\u2019s a lovely shared garden and being on the third floor in a walk-up is, to me, the sweet spot.<\/p>\n

It might be a trick of photography, but the bathroom in this West End Avenue condo seems pleasingly huge. And gorgeously tiled. The rest of the apartment appears to be equally spacious \u2014\u00a0it\u2019s 1,000 square feet, which is a nice amount of space for a one-bedroom. The living room has well-maintained crown molding and a decorative fireplace. The kitchen is big enough to eat in and also windowed, though it looks out at a brick wall. Monthly expenses are going to come in at nearly $2,500, but that gets you a 24-hour doorman, a super, a fitness center, a landscaped garden, and a stunner of a lobby. Plus it\u2019s just a block to Riverside Park and the 96th Street tennis courts. There are worse things to pay for.<\/p>\n

Another decorative fireplace and an ideal location in this one-bedroom co-op on East 9th off University Place. The window placement in the living room is a little stingy, but there are dual exposures (northern and eastern) and that stretch of wall creates more opportunities for storage or bookshelves. Nice hardwoods, too. The kitchen is a simple galley with a lot of cabinet space, and I don\u2019t mind the browns. (It\u2019s a sickness.) Bedroom fits a king and has with a nice closet, and the bathroom, while being a bit too peachy coral for my tastes, is windowed and sits next to another closet. (There are three total.) Monthlies are decent at $1,707, and get you a full-service spread: 24-hour doorman, super, laundry, elevators. The listing boasts a \u201cdiscerning\u201d board \u2014\u00a0real-estate-speak for annoying but also, hopefully, decent with finances. Good luck.<\/p>\n
