Over the past decade, the Internet of Things (IoT) has transformed traditional living spaces into smart homes, where various systems—such as temperature, lighting, security, and entertainment—are seamlessly controlled through centralized interfaces like wall panels or smartphone apps. This technology brings to mind futuristic visions from shows like "The Jetsons." Leading brands in this space include Savant, Crestron, Lutron, and Control4.

  • Enhanced Convenience: Manage home functions remotely, allowing for adjustments to lighting, temperature, and security systems from anywhere.
  • Increased Energy Efficiency: Optimize energy consumption with smart thermostats and lighting systems, leading to potential cost savings.

Advancements in technology have made the installation of smart home systems more accessible. Some builders and designers now seamlessly incorporate these technologies into new residential developments. For instance, One United Nations Park features built-in Crestron systems in every unit. More commonly, developers integrate basic features like smart thermostats and locks, allowing buyers to customize additional functionalities as desired.
A fully integrated smart home typically comprises three key components:

  • Central Hub: This serves as the command center, enabling control of all connected devices. It can be a dedicated control panel or a personal smartphone or tablet.
  • Compatible Software: Software that synchronizes and manages the smart devices. While many pre-configured systems offer proprietary software, those opting for a DIY approach should ensure compatibility between their chosen apps, devices, and the central hub.
  • Smart Devices: These include a range of gadgets, from energy-efficient thermostats and video doorbells to multi-room speakers and automated lighting systems, tailored to the user's preferences.
The prevalence of smart home technology is increasing in new developments. However, residents of older buildings can also adopt these innovations. Earlier iterations of smart home setups often required invasive installations, which posed challenges in certain housing contexts. Today, wireless solutions that don't necessitate permanent fixtures or landline connections are available, making them suitable for various types of apartments.
The following listings showcase properties in both contemporary and pre-war buildings, each equipped with smart home technology and with a sticker price under $2 million.
