Luxury downtown penthouse, by Franklin Plaza.

This beautiful, historic Victorian building is on a short walking distance from Franklin Plaza, one of Troy`s most popular wedding and events venues. Just remodeled with a balance of classic and modern design, including original brick in the kitchen and large windows throughout, giving this space beautiful natural light and views. We have security cameras in the first , second floor hallway, outside the front door and back door.There is no cameras inside of the listed units.

Third floor apartment has specious rooms. Shared backyard is available for our guests. Being a third floor apartment in a historical building with twelve foot ceilings on the first two floors please expect to clime stairs.

This building is located on a quiet street that runs between Fulton st and Grand st. It is within walking distance to many of Troy`s attractions, including the Troy Beer Garden, Dinosaur Bar-B-Que, and Troy farmer`s market, which was ranked #1 in the country by American Farmland Trust People’s Choice! Troy prides itself on its small businesses - there are endless restaurants, coffee shops, and bakeries downtown which offer beautiful outdoor seating in the summertime, as well as boutique shops and art galleries.

This building is directly downtown, so many restaurants, shops and attractions are within walking distance. Uber, Lyft and public transportation are also available. If you prefer to drive, there is street parking all throughout downtown Troy, both paid and free, depending on time of day and location.

Cutest Apartment in Troy!

We loved our stay at this apartment! We stayed for 2 nights over the weekend on our road trip through the Northeast. Apartment was very easy to find, parking is street parking. We never had trouble finding a spot! Super clean throughout and very comfy bed. We loved the ability to walk to local restaurants and bars! Hosts were quick to respond with any questions we had!

This brownstone was adorable! Provided everything we needed, close to the downtown Troy. We were able to park right in front of the of the brownstone. We just walked to the downtown area, 5 min. Good location.

This apartment was perfect for our stay in Troy to visit the city and the Troy Savings Bank Music Hall. It’s clean and well equipped and Tanyana is an excellent host. One note on the parking, we got a $50 ticket issued at 4:30AM on Tuesday. We were parked pretty much in front of the building entrance under a sign that clearly indicated parking was OK after 5:00PM. Turns out there’s a sign further down the block that prohibits parking early Tuesday and Thursday morning for street cleaning so we were stuck. There are nearby streets with different cleaning days so it’s not hard to work around this, just note there’s a risk of a ticket if you park overnight in front of the building on a Monday or Wednesday.
