Homes for Sale in Manhattan and on Staten Island
Manhattan | 11 Fifth Avenue, No. 15G
Greenwich Village Co-op
$1.875 million
A one-bedroom, one-bath, 1,000-square-foot postwar apartment with a combined living and dining room that has a door to an awning-lined terrace, a windowed galley kitchen with soapstone counters, a bedroom with a Murphy bed, a home office with not-quite-to-the-ceiling walls, a bathroom with a stall shower, a dressing area with a second sink, and a closet converted to a stereo area, on the 15th floor of the 20-story Brevoort, a doorman building with a basement laundry room and gym. Jeanne Byers, Coldwell Banker Warburg, 917-744-7494, George Case, 773-983-0513; cbwarburg.com
Costs
Maintenance: $2,925 a month
Special assessment: $580 a month through June 2024
Pros
The apartment, on the building’s southwest corner, offers views of Washington Square Park’s arch.
Cons
The Murphy bed, if it’s there to save space, seems unnecessary. A vanity for the sink in the bathroom could provide needed storage and counter space.
Manhattan | 20 Pine Street, No. 1416
Financial District Studio
$998,000
A 1,000-square-foot studio apartment with an open floor plan, a walled-off sleeping alcove, a bathroom with separate tub and shower, a combined washer and dryer, 10-foot beamed ceilings, dark-stained hardwood floors, and northern exposure, on the 14th floor of a 38-story doorman building converted in 2008 with an indoor pool, gym and roof deck. AnneMarie Tamis-Nasello, The Agency, 917-292-0010; theagencyre.com
Costs
Common charges: $1,273 a month
Taxes: $1,340 a month
Pros
The sleeping area features a walk-in closet. The main living space can easily fit a dining table.
Cons
Like many converted office buildings, the layout is a bit awkward: There aren’t many windows, and they’re all on one wall.
Staten Island | 90 Bay Street Landing, No. 9C
St. George Condo
$1.399 million
A three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath, 2,200-square-foot apartment with a combined living and dining room that has beamed ceilings, stone accent walls and an electric fireplace; an open kitchen with quartzite counters and a breakfast bar; a primary suite with a windowed bathroom; two bedrooms with Murphy beds; and a dedicated parking space, on the top floor of the nine-story Accolade, a 2015 doorman elevator building with a gym. Daniel Bochicchio, Douglas Elliman, 917-577-1425; elliman.com
Costs
Common charges: $2,000 a month
Taxes: $564 a month
Pros
The unit feels like more than an apartment thanks to its laundry room, two outdoor spaces and en suite baths in every bedroom. A similar condo across the bay in Manhattan’s Financial District could cost twice as much. The Accolade is five-minute walk from St. George’s ferry terminal.
cons
Only one bathroom has a window. The prized view from the building, of New York Bay and the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge, can be admired only from the smaller of the two terraces.
