New Yorkers have come to accept that most apartment amenities are luxuries and not necessities. (It’s tough to justify needing a dishwasher when you cook maybe four times a month.) But with winter just around the corner, we’re unapologetically coveting the coziness of a fireplace—even if said coziness is purely decorative. So with the help of StreetEasy, we’ve curated a list of hearth-equipped rentals at various price points. BYO hot cocoa.
10 Apartments with *Fireplaces* That Are on the Market Right Now
$2,500 And Below
2-bedroom in Spuyten Duyvil ($2,500)
If there’s one thing we love as much as a fireplace, it’s a sprawling view of the Hudson River, and this Bronx gem has both. In fact, this fireplace is topped with a giant mirror, so you can see the dreamy view no matter where you are in the living room.
$3,000 And Below
1-bedroom in Hamilton Heights ($2,500)
If you snag this Hamilton Heights home, please understand that it will be your responsibility to act as the dedicated host for your book club. The brick and wood-surrounded fireplace is the focal point of the living room, which has plenty of space for entertaining. And when the weather warms up, you can move the meetings outside to the private courtyard.
$4,000 And Below
2-bedroom in Williamsburg ($3,995)
During the winter months, we know that sunlight is at a premium. That’s why we’re particularly excited about this two-bedroom apartment in Williamsburg: In addition to the charming fireplace, the living room also boasts oversize windows that allow natural light to pour in.
$5,000 And Below
1-bedroom in the West Village ($4,800)
Yes, we’re here to discuss fireplaces—and this one with its exposed-brick backdrop does not disappoint—but can we talk about this kitchen for a second? That retro fridge and those mint-green shelves are charming enough to sign a lease for this West Village one-bedroom sight unseen.
$10,000 And Below
4-bedroom in Forest Hills ($6,000)
Another Forest Hills home, another fireplace—but this one couldn’t be more different. This split-duplex penthouse is an architectural masterpiece, with windows and skylights galore, a curved wood staircase and a private elevator. But the pièce de résistance is definitely that Grecian Ornate Fireplace.
Eye Candy (over $10k)
3-bedroom in Park Slope ($11,000)
If you’re not already a home-decor influencer, this all-white minimalist townhouse might turn you into one. Now you just need to decide how to spend your time: reading by the wood-burning fireplace, cooking in the airy kitchen or basking in the sun on the private roof deck?
