Description

165 Taaffe Place is a charming boutique condominium comprised of four impressive residences. Located on the border of Clinton Hill and Bedford-Stuyvesant, this exclusive floor through residence is the perfect home if you are looking for light, serene neutral colors and luxurious finishes.

This 4th floor apartment boasts a very large open kitchen and living area with dining room area. Wooden framed over-sized windows throughout the home reflect an abundance of bright, natural light. 5'' White Oak hardwood flooring further contributes to the light and classy feel of the home. Everything was built to the highest level: central air and heat systems have been built in and the kitchen vent as well as the washer dryer are vented out.

The gourmet kitchen showcases pure white quartz countertops. The custom open shelving is crafted from white oak and Nobilia white gloss cabinets. Stainless steel appliance includes a Bosch 800 series speed oven, Bosch 500 series cooktop, fully integrated Bosch dishwasher and a Fisher & Paykel French door refrigerator. A beautiful quartz island offers storage and seats 4 on the overhang.

The thoughtfully constructed bathroom has two entryways for guests and direct access from the master room. It includes a drop-in white soaking tub, Brizo matte black hardware and a tasteful DuraStyle wall mounted toilet. There is also a custom recessed mirror, a chic artistic vanity and matte black contemporary faucet.

Both bedrooms are well sized with built out closets. The main bedroom has the special treat of its own personal terrace facing East to see the sunrise with your morning coffee.

This unit comes with a private storage closet. Just one flight up is access to a common roof deck, shared with only 3 neighbors.
