Description
Welcome to 657 East 26th Street #5L, a charming one-bedroom home in one of Victorian Flatbush's most beautifully maintained pre-war cooperatives. Offering gracious proportions, abundant storage, lovely morning light, and exceptional value, this property is a true find. The apartment opens into a large foyer, which can be used as an office, that leads to a generously sized living room with ample space for both comfortable seating and dining. Large windows fill the home with soft eastern light throughout the morning, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere. The king-sized bedroom offers impressive dimensions and excellent closet space, while additional closets throughout the home provide the kind of storage rarely found in apartments of this size. Original hardwood floors and pre-war details add warmth and character throughout. The kitchen was recently renovated and has brand new appliances. The bathtub was just reglazed. Both the kitchen and bathrooms have windows for ventilation. One of Apartment 5L's most compelling features is its remarkably low monthly maintenance of just $550, an exceptional value in today's market. Set within one of Brooklyn's most elegant prewar buildings, residents enjoy two common gardens, laundry facilities, bike and storage rentals, package room and attentive service from a live-in super and porter. The monthly maintenance includes taxes, heat, and hot water. The location offers incredible convenience with easy access to the B/Q and 2/5 trains and Prospect Park. You are perfectly positioned near Brooklyn College, the diverse dining scene on Cortelyou Road, and major shopping options like Target and Aldi. Please note that while cats are welcome, dogs are not permitted in the building.
