The New York City housing market is one the priciest in the world. But it continues to draw homebuyers looking for unique homes. Sometimes, these finds could be quite unexpected. If you are someone who enjoys an unusual living space, here are two quirky homes currently for sale in Manhattan. 

The first gem is a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom co-op, which is actually two separate apartments divided by a hallway. But the list of surprises did not end here. One of the units has a closet that is actually a shower. The unusual shower cabin is located in the living room. It has both curtains and shuttered doors. 

Since the co-op is divided into two separate one-bedroom apartments, each unit is pretty narrow. This explains why one of the showers was put inside a closet. The co-op is listed as a 'gut renovation project' and invites you to “bring your imagination and bring your designer” to create a perfect two-bedroom.

Moving next, this studio on the Upper West Side might be the ideal find for those who appreciate vintage decor. Inside, you will find mosaic windows, an Italian Renaissance marble fountain, antique floors, and original plaster molding. This spacious studio also has a separate kitchen with modern appliances and an updated windowed bathroom.

This home could be a perfect fixer-upper with an opportunity to improve the living space while keeping the historic architectural details intact. The co-op is located in a townhouse that was built in 1900 and converted into a multi-family property in 1986. The building sits next to the 72nd Street express subway station and the Riverside Park.

New York City’s architecture is diverse, and you will find many unique homes spread out across the five boroughs. Some residences might look like the home of your dreams, and others might seem quite bizarre. But all of them are wonderfully distinct.
