Brooklyn Heights $3.15 million All real estate listings like to consider themselves “rare,” but this Greek Revival townhouse is on the market for the first time in more than 40 years. Set on Joralemon Street, the four-story home encompasses 3,200 square feet of living space and is currently configured as a single residence with four bedrooms and 3 1/2 bathrooms. The garden level can “easily” be converted to a rental unit or function as an office. The eat-in kitchen has been recently updated with new granite counters and stainless-steel appliances, and the “large” garden out back offers “lovely views of Grace Church.” Agent: Judy Kloner, Warburg Realty Partnership, 212-439-4523

Carnegie Hill $4.499 million This prewar, 2,500-square-foot penthouse on Park Avenue is “in need of some renovation,” but there are “great bones” to work with, including “magnificent” ceiling heights, “impeccable” hardwood floors and some “charming details” that “do not need to be touched.” A blank canvas that “can be rearranged in numerous ways,” the duplex co-op is currently laid out with two bedrooms, three full bathrooms, an “opulent” living room and a formal dining room. And it’s hard to improve on the “enormous” wraparound terraces — on the first level and the roof — that offer “breathtaking views” of Midtown plus “peeks” of Central Park and the George Washington Bridge. Agents: Lisa Lippman and Scott Moore, Brown Harris Stevens, 212-588-5606 and 212-588-5608

Mill Neck, LI $3.3 million Built in 1925, this “majestic” clapboard and brick home is a replica of Marie Antoinette’s farmhouse in Versailles — and let’s just say there are plenty of places here to eat cake. The six-bedroom, six-plus-bathroom main house, with “fine details” and hand-crafted moldings imported from a Parisian chateau, has formal living and dining rooms and a “sensational” music room/ballroom for “grand entertaining.” Naturally, the 7-acre Gold Coast property boasts “European-style” gardens with white marble walkways, as well as a three-bedroom guest cottage, a swimming pool with a cabana and a greenhouse. Agents: Ludmilla Stanco and Michael Stanco, Prudential Douglas Elliman, 516-945-0260 and 917-293-0915
