SoHo $4.395 million Set on a “historic” cobblestone stretch of Mercer Street, between Howard and Grand, is this cast-iron, brick and marble loft building originally constructed in 1860. Lucky for you, it exists today as a “modern luxury” condo with a doorman, landscaped rooftop terrace and this 2,400-square-foot, two-bedroom, 2 1/2-bathroom home. Some of the distinct features include the living room’s custom wall unit (with a built-in desk), arched windows, a woodburning fireplace and “stunning” walnut floors. And amenities like a Crestron smart system, in-wall speakers and a Bulthaup-designed kitchen complete the journey from “prewar elegance” to “downtown chic.” Agents: Brett Miles and Susan Green, Town Residential, 646-998-7427 and 646-998-7428

Central Park West $4.995 million It doesn’t get much more classic Central Park West than the 1929 “white-glove” Emery Roth-designed Beresford. It’s where you’ll find this “sprawling” co-op, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms and “expansive” entertaining spaces. There’s a 29-foot-long “grand” gallery, a living room with a woodburning fireplace, an “elegant” formal dining room and a renovated, open kitchen with “modern” appliances and plenty of granite and stainless steel. The master bedroom is “luxurious,” with two walk-in closets and an en-suite bathroom with restored original fixtures. There’s also a small home office with built-in storage. And along with classic prewar features — 10-foot ceilings and herringbone floors — the apartment boasts a built-in sound system. Agents: Lisa Arcara and Patrycia Harbison, Halstead Property, 212-381-2611 and 212-381-2205

Upper West Side $4.995 million This “sprawling,” 3,078-square-foot condo on Riverside Drive features five bedrooms, 4 1/2 bathrooms, a “spacious” living room and dining room, an eat-in kitchen and a library with custom built-ins, including a bar. Nice, but also consider the “tremendous” master bedroom, with additions like a home office/“meditation room” and a “movie-star-size” dressing room to complement the “spa-like” bathroom. And, naturally, the main rooms and master suite all offer views of the Hudson, because isn’t that also the point of living on Riverside Drive? Agents: Ann Cutbill Lenane and Deirdre DeRisi, Douglas Elliman, 212-769-9862 and 212-769-9824
