Converted 1 Bed in a Co-op
Available: Immediately
Price: $1,150, plus broker’s fee
Details: Well, this is one quirky space. Between the windows inside the unit, seemingly useless doorway, large usable foyer, and lopsided galley kitchen, this is definitely one for the character-lovers among us. The location sounds convenient, and it’s pretty darn inexpensive for an apartment around here if you can woo the co-op board. There’s a common garden, bike room, and laundry, too.

1 Bed in a Victorian off Cortelyou
Available: Immediately
Price: $1,650, plus broker’s fee
Details: This unit is certainly pretty, with four exposures, mouldings, and rustic floors–plus it features built-ins and storage. The location sounds good, too, but no pets or smokers are allowed.

Affordable (?) E 21st Street 3 Bed
Available: Immediately
Price: $2,300, plus broker’s fee
Details: About equidistant from the B/Q and 2/5 stops on Newkirk, this unit seems convenient for Manhattan commuters and Brooklyn College students alike. It’s also got a friendlier price point than many places in the area at a little over $750 per roommate if split evenly–but the listing marks it as non rent stabilized, so make sure to do your homework before signing anything.

Furnished 2 Bed in a Victorian
Available: September 15
Price: $4,500, plus broker’s fee
Details: Advertised as a comfortable place to stay during a home renovation, this pad is certainly pricey–but maybe it’s worth it to not go rifling through all your moving boxes a million times for forks, bowls, and that wine key you know you put somewhere. Anyone about to overhaul a house?
