Description

Classic prewar proportions, fantastic light, charm and detail characterize this spacious two-bedroom, top-floor apartment in the heart of tree-lined Brooklyn Heights. As you walk in, the foyer, complete with a large entry closet, welcomes you into the well-appointed, open living area which offers a flexible layout with plenty of space for living and dining. Two over-sized windows bring in abundant light throughout the day and look over the lovely gardens below. The renovated, windowed kitchen has white cabinetry, Caesarstone counters, a peninsula with a breakfast bar, and offers great work and storage space. Both bedrooms are equally spacious and have large windows and sizable closets, with one offering floor-to-ceiling built-in bookcases. The classic bath can be entered through the bedroom or the hallway and boasts the original subway tile and porcelain tub, a pedestal sink and a vintage leaded glass window. Other features of the apartment include beautiful hardwood flooring, plentiful closet space, including a walk-in closet off the living room, three exposures, picture-frame moldings, and 9' ceilings. A neo-classical, elevator building, "The Colonial" has a live-in super, bike storage, central laundry and private storage in the basement. A block and a half from 6 different subway lines, and a short jaunt to all the businesses and amenities of Montague Street, Atlantic Avenue, Smith and Court Streets, as well as the Brooklyn Bridge Park and the Promenade-the location is amazing! Pets allowed too!
