Upper East Side $7.5 million So this “grand” and “one-of-a-kind” condo loft — What? You’ve heard this before? — on East 63rd Street is “available for the first time” and you really can make it your own. The 2,500-square-foot space is currently configured as a three-bedroom spread with a 47-foot-long living/dining/entertaining area, but where those walls go is up to you. Just make sure to account for the “oversized” windows that currently offer “views of Central Park from every room,” even the “top-of-the-line” chef’s kitchen. And the full-service Beaux-Arts building’s location — one block from the park with 100 feet facing Madison Avenue — might not be the only one of its kind, but it’s rare enough to take note.

Carnegie Hill $7.995 million Indeed, while every home likes to be considered “unique,” this “luxury” layout on East 94th Street near Madison Avenue really can claim to be the neighborhood’s only six-bedroom condo currently on the market. So there. And the there we’re talking about is “sprawling,” measuring 3,872 square feet, with six bathrooms to go along with those bedrooms, as well as a formal living room and dining area, family room, “extra-large,” “suburban-style” kitchen and “flexible” gallery space that can also be used as a home office. And from your perch on the 31st floor of this doorman building, you’ll have “breathtaking” north, east and south views of landmarks from the Chrysler Building to Yankee Stadium.

Park Slope, Brooklyn $6.5 million If you love history, this Sixth Avenue townhouse is for you — you can practically lead a tour here, pointing out how, following its construction as a private home in the 1870s, the building housed the Swedish American Athletic Club in 1812 — the 15-foot cocktail bar is still intact. However, for the past 40 years, it has existed finely as a “grand” four-bedroom triplex, plus a three-bedroom rental unit — 7,200 square feet altogether. The club’s ballroom is now a 65-foot-long living room; its trophy case now a “handsome” built-in cabinet in the master bedroom suite. The historic home still has a full roof deck and garden, which has had clear views of the Statue of Liberty ever since it was built — the statue, that is.
