Greenpoint, Brooklyn

This Greenpoint pad shuns the classic Brooklyn aesthetic, stumbling upon something warmer and more colourful in the process. It’s actually part of a boutique hotel, so while it doesn’t feel totally like someone’s home (more on that later), for those looking for a slice of Brooklyn's low-key cool, with the benefit of a hotel concierge, it's an excellent option.

Greenwich Village, Manhattan

Situated on a one-way street in the heart of Greenwich Village that Eleonor Roosevelt once called home, this six-storey Romanesque Revival building makes for a classic New York home from home.

Greenpoint, Brooklyn

It may be a bit further out (about a twenty-minute drive from Manhatten in good traffic) but this part of Brooklyn is one of the most desirable in the city. Famous as a filming location and with great hipster appeal thanks to its trendy eateries and live music venues, it's got a great community spirit and old-world charm.
