Description

This beautifully renovated corner apartment offers a rare blend of warmth, comfort, and thoughtful design, visible the moment you step inside, where a gracious foyer draws you in to the generous main living area flooded with light. Pristine engineered hardwood floors run seamlessly across the space, creating a sense of warmth, calm and cohesion. The galley kitchen offers two entrances, ideal for entertaining and everyday ease, while garden views bring a soft and serene backdrop to your daily routine. Both bedrooms are comfortably sized, with the primary enjoying two serene exposures overlooking the landscaped gardens and pergola. Two full bathrooms, one with a shower and one with a tub, offer everyday convenience. Abundant closet space throughout ensures everything has a place. This is a large, comfortable home that offers a versatile floor plan where a small third bedroom, nursery or home office can easily be created. Check alternate floor plan for inspiration. The ground-floor location adds a level of convenience many buyers appreciate. One especially unique feature is the shared, semi-private hallway and entrance used by only one other home, offering a welcome sense of privacy within a revered building known for its stability, care, and community. University Towers is a gated, well-established cooperative known for its financial strength, thoughtful management, and ongoing capital improvements. Spread across more than five acres of beautifully maintained, landscaped grounds, this community offers a peaceful retreat with the convenience of Downtown Brooklyn right at your doorstep. Parking available for sale or rent when available - please ask for details. There is NO flip tax and this co-op offers flexible purchase options, ie. co-purchasing, gifting, and parents buying for children - are all permitted. Sorry, no pets except as required by law. Residents enjoy a robust suite of amenities, including 24-hour security, a renovated fitness center, dual elevators in each building, landscaped gardens, a professionally designed barbecue terrace with lounge seating and free Wi-Fi, a children’s playground, bike storage, general storage, a community room, and updated 24 hour laundry facilities with smart technology. Seasonal landscaping and full-time staff help keep the property feeling welcoming and well cared-for. The location is exceptional: Trader Joe’s, Target, City Point, Dekalb Market Hall, Lidl, the Alamo Drafthouse, and countless dining and retail options are moments away. Fort Greene Park, the farmers market, and neighborhood boutiques add to the area’s charm. Transportation access is unmatched, with the B, Q, R trains just one block away, and quick access to the 2, 3, 4, 5, A, C, F, and G lines, multiple bus routes, and the LIRR at Atlantic Terminal, making travel throughout the city effortless. Note: A small assessment began in September 2025 and will remain in place for two years. Please ask for details.
