Description

Located on one of Brooklyn Heights' most beautiful tree-lined quiet blocks sits this meticulously renovated open loft-like one bedroom on the top floor of a Federal style townhouse. Your hideaway awaits as you climb the open floating staircase to your private roof deck oasis. As soon as you walk through the front door you are greeted by plenty of sunshine through the oversized windows and multiple skylights. This pre-war gem offers high ceilings, hardwood floors throughout and an open floor plan perfect for entertaining! The kitchen includes a Carrera marble island, Sub-Zero appliances, built-in microwave, crisp white subway tile and custom built-in wood cabinetry for an amazing amount of storage. There is a split system a/c unit to offer the convenience of controlling your own temperature year round.The renovated bath features Carrera marble throughout including hexagon marble floor tile to keep with the pre-war character, and multiple Kohler shower body sprays to create the ultimate spa-like experience. A tucked away washer/dryer is not to be missed! The private roof deck is a special retreat with ample gardening space for those with a green thumb. It is a wonderfully romantic spot to share a glass of wine and watch the sunset over the Manhattan skyline or to invite a crowd to view the fireworks on hot summer nights. This well maintained 4-unit co-op pre-war building is financially sound with no underlying mortgage. The basement has designated storage areas for each unit, additional laundry, as well as space for bikes. You are minutes from the famed Brooklyn Bridge Park and many restaurants and cafes, and in close proximity to all the major train lines. The building is pet friendly.
