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’re combing the market for particularly spacious, nicely renovated, or otherwise worth-a-look apartments at various six-digit price points.
This week: a gilded apartment in an 1800s Romanesque Revival mansion.
The newly renovated kitchen featured in this listing photo comes with custom cabinetry and stone countertops.

A condo with an ideal location: one block from the entrance to Prospect Park and the F train right outside your door. It’s on the corner, which might be a little louder, but you get windows on all three sides. The space has 11-foot ceilings and has been completely renovated with custom cabinets in the kitchen and a washer-dryer. You technically get “roof rights,” but it’s unfinished. Either way, it all seems worth it with monthlies at a low $656.
The living room shown in this listing photo is the selling point, with herringbone floors and detailed moldings.

This one is a stunner. An 1800s Romanesque Revival mansion that was once home to Ulysses S. Grant can now be home to … you. There’s a huge, like hulkingly huge, southwest-facing living room with lovely bay windows that form part of a turret. There’s a lot of character throughout the space — herringbone floors, intricate moldings, built-in shelves. Mansion monthlies are high at $1,459, but you get to climb a curved staircase to get to your apartment, and there is laundry in the building.
The best part of this apartment are the views of the Hudson River, as shown in this listing photo.

This apartment is south- and west-facing, so the lighting is ideal. There are also views of the Hudson River from both the living room and the bedroom. There’s a washer-dryer in the sizable kitchen that also comes with granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances. Ample shelving throughout the space and somewhat manageable $945 monthlies, although there’s an additional $210 assessment through 2025. Just stop going out for dinner for the year or something.
The living room shown in this listing photo has a nice fireplace and opens up into a large backyard.

This condo has a long and skinny layout but still manages to have windows in every room. The living room opens up into a nicely sized backyard that has a lot of potential. The apartment still has parquet floors and a fireplace (we assume nonworking, but perhaps it will surprise you). There’s laundry in the building, and monthlies are just $685. A similarly priced listing nearby just saw a price reduction, so it may be worth waiting and seeing.
