by Abigail Finn
Get an early peek at some of our agents’ favorite new property listings in New York City, the Hamptons, South Florida, and beyond.
Enjoy our weekly survey of Corcoran’s best new home listings across the country. On deck this week: A Williamsburg loft combining Brooklyn’s past and present, a compound secluded in the forest near Lake Tahoe, a striking architectural vision in Queens, a stately farmhouse in the Hudson Valley, and a Sag Harbor Mansion with a presidential pedigree.
Manhattan
What’s Here: Sprawling above Tribeca over two floors, a Monique Gibson-designed penthouse duplex. This five-bedroom home boasts radiant hardwood floors, abundant natural light through multiple exposures, and unlimited elegance. Each room seems to have an individual color palette that’s singular yet cohesive with the whole.
What We Love: A splendid surplus of space indoors and out, ready-made for any occasion.
Listing: Danny Davis, Lisa Balbuena, and Lisa Resnick.
Asking: $15,000,000.
Brooklyn
What’s Here: Charming, warm, and welcoming, this rare opening in Williamsburg’s Mason Fisk Condominium, a converted c.1910 industrial building. Exposed bricks and beams merge with modern living updates, as this loft stays linked to its past while offering the best of Brooklyn’s present.
What We Love: Between North 9th and 10th streets in Williamsburg, you couldn’t get much closer to the beating heart of this trendy neighborhood if you tried.
Listing: Alyssa Hammer.
Asking: $1,195,000.
Queens
What’s Here: A striking Hunters Point loft designed by its architect-owner (read our full feature here) as a showcase for art, books, and music. Completely renovated and reimagined from the top of its 14-foot ceilings to the bottom layer of soundproofing under its French oak floors, the light-filled apartment is filled with quiet, bespoke, luxury details that result in a superbly comfortable space for living.
What We Love: A built-in sound system—installed within shelves and ceilings across three different zones—allows the unit to be immersed in music regardless of whether there’s anyone at the piano.
Listing: Patrick W. Smith and Aurin Disla.
Asking: $1,495,000.
East End
What’s Here: Eight bedrooms on 14,000 square feet, a waterside architectural masterpiece. Entering the home is its own dramatic experience as you wander past a marble waterfall wall and through a stainless steel sliding door into this wood and stone estate. Every room in the home, each a meticulously perfected design, makes it feel like you’re in a compelling museum exhibit, the focus of which is your idealized Hamptons lifestyle.
What We Love: Not only is the Atlantic Ocean a scenic backdrop from atop this home’s 4,600-square-foot roof deck, but that blue oasis is only a shell’s throw away from the property.
Listing: Gary DePersia.
Asking: $24,950,000.
What’s Here: A c.1796 Victorian mansion with a presidential pedigree. Once the “Summer White House” for President Chester A. Arthur, this three-story, six-bedroom home has been wholly refreshed by design legend Steven Gambrel to accommodate luxurious Sag Harbor living—wine cellar, heated gunite pool, media room in a finished basement—while not compromising on historic character.
What We Love: The main floor’s library, complete with a fireplace, feels like the kind of cozy hideaway one could retreat to and conduct presidential business.
Listing: Susan Breitenbach and Cutter Koster.
Asking: $13,800,000.
Hudson Valley
What’s Here: A charming farmhouse with five bedrooms in Greene County, close to Hudson, Catskill, and Windham’s ski slopes. The lot includes an empty building spot just up the hill from the main house with spectacular Hudson River views–perfect for anyone looking to expand.
What We Love: A new patio with a fire pit and hot tub to enjoy year-round.
Listing: Lawrence P. O’Toole and Maret Halinen.
Asking: $899,000.
Westchester
What’s Here: A gorgeous two-acre estate built at the highest point in Irvington, complete with seven-bedrooms, a home theater, and a resort-style pool. The property’s beautiful landscaping features rolling lawns and bluestone patios designed to echo the gardens in the South of France.
What We Love: Watching the amazing sunsets over the Palisades and the Hudson River from the pool and back patio.
Listing: Cindy A. Kief.
Asking: $7,200,000.
South Florida
What’s Here: A breathtaking Mediterranean-style estate a conch’s throw from the titular sands of Palm Beach. Set on a meticulously landscaped lot, this alluring home oozes opulence, boasting a wine cellar, a sauna, and an entire room devoted to massage and fitness, in addition to eight lush bedrooms.
What We Love: The soaring 25-foot ceilings in the great room.
Listing: Suzanne Frisbie.
Asking: $29,500,000.
What’s Here: A property ripe with development opportunities in a prime Miami Beach locale. 925 Lenox is being sold with plans for a new three-story, 10,000-square-foot home already approved. Plans also dictate space for 12-foot ceilings, a five-car garage, and a rooftop deck complete with a rooftop pool.
What We Love: The newly-remodeled, three-unit multifamily building already on the property.
Listing: Julian Johnston and Jelena Khurana.
Asking: $2,400,000.
Northwest Florida

Listing: Carly Sostheim.
Asking: $2,500,000.
Northern California
What’s Here: A sunny three-bedroom, two-bath house located in bucolic Twin Peaks, straddling Clarendon Heights and Midtown Terrace. This mid-century modern delight has a lower level with a two-car garage, access to the backyard, and washer/dryer hookups.
What We Love: Large windows, a wood-burning fireplace in the living room and an open-floor plan make this a bright and inviting home.
Listing: Suhl Chin.
Asking: $1,249,000.
Reno/Tahoe
What’s Here: “Secret Harbor,” an aptly-named lakefront estate on more than two sequestered acres of Tahoe’s majestic East Shore. Beyond the stunning three-bedroom main house, the property’s additional structures add two more beautifully-appointed bedrooms—the perfect guests’ quarters—as well as a private pier and a dock house.
What We Love: Owning a stretch of private shoreline, complete with boulder-lined coves, and living miles from the nearest residence.
Listing: Karen Bruno.
Asking: $25,000,000.
Hawaii
What’s Here: A fully renovated, two-story single-family home set right on the golf course and minutes from the beach in Kapolei, on O’ahu. The property has three bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, a large home office, and a state-of-the-art chef’s kitchen.
