Description

SHOWINGS BY APPT ONLY. NO OPEN HOUSES. PLEASE CALL FOR A SHOWING. Opportunity knocks in this very special Junior 2-bedroom coop on one of Brooklyn Heights' most beautiful and convenient blocks, just one street over from every single subway line at Borough Hall. Situated in a grand Italianate mansion on convenient and quiet Remsen street, this parlor floor apartment has the grand proportions and historic details of your dreams. With a little cosmetic renovation it could be transformed into a wonderful oversized 1 bedroom with formal dining room, OR an efficient two bedroom with flexibility.Head up one flight of stairs (or use the elevator!), and enjoy a small but practical kitchen, one bathroom, a charming living room with 12 ceilings, mahogany wainscoting, and a massive floor-to-ceiling window. Head towards the back of the apartment to two well-proportioned bedrooms that both enjoy serene garden views and South-facing light, and a master bedroom with full corner windows. My suggestion would be to either use as-is, or add a creative opening between the living room and first bedroom and enjoy visions of grandeur and brightness in an oversized living and dining room that could also be closed off for visiting guests or a home office.The possibilities are endless when the original bones are so glamorous and generous. The kitchen and bathroom could definitely use some updating but this home can absolutely be moved into as-is. Indulge in a quick coat of paint only if your budget is limited and you are looking for an affordable way to get into a comfortable space today in prime Brooklyn Heights.This is a rare 7-unit coop with an elevator and incredible basement storage. This unit comes with three easily accessible basement storage closets. No pets allowed.
