Description
Don't miss this oversized, pet friendly one-bedroom with low maintenance in the charming Fairfax House; a classic prewar co-op with an inviting brick facade and iconic red double doors.
Enter into the foyer which doubles as a dining area and immediately feel the immensity of space. Hardwood floors flow into an expansive living room, large enough for both a comfortable entertainment and office or dining space. Tall windows filter in soft natural light while the high ceiling height expands the room.
Through the foyer's archway, you'll find an eat-in kitchen with a window, plus plenty of cabinet space for all your cooking needs. Four generous closets throughout the apartment ensure you'll have room for coats, linens, and everything in between. The massive bedroom easily accommodates a king sized bed and additional large furniture. The bathroom, tiled in soft gray, adds a vintage allure.
Fairfax House offers an elevator, storage rooms and laundry room, with pets and subletting allowed (with some restrictions). This prime Bay Ridge location is moments from Third Avenue's popular shops, delicious dining, and just two short blocks from the R train-putting everything within easy reach!
