10 Apartments with Fireplaces That Are on the Market Right Now

•

Published Nov 15, 2018

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.

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.

Studio in Park Slope ($2,300)

Wood paneling is having a resurgence and we’re here for it. This 1970s trend is especially appealing when the paneling surrounds a decorative fireplace like it does at this Park Slope alcove studio. Plus, once the snow starts to fall, you’re only half a block away from the magical winter wonderland that is Prospect Park.
