Description

SHOWN BY APPT. ONLY - EVEN SUNDAY'S OPEN HOUSE- PLEASE MAKE AN APPT
SUPERB 2 BEDROOM CONVERSION - This top floor unit is almost loft-like with its expansive open living/dining space that spans almost 40 ft. Coupled with an open oversized kitchen, this apartment is made for entertaining, (remember that?). Completely renovated and smartly laid out, this converted 2 bedroom unit is move-in ready, whether you need just a separate home office or even a second sleep space/ guest room- now that folks can visit again. A bright corner unit located on the top floor with eastern & southern exposures ,the natural light is abundant. The windowed kitchen has tons of storage, endless quartz counter space, a huge sink with filtered water, stainless appliances including a dishwasher. The bathroom is also equipped with a window and good storage as well. The white oak flooring has been recently rebuffed, and the entire apartment freshly painted. Upon entry there is a huge walk-In closet which is basically an additional room in itself. Both bedrooms have separate entrances, a window and a big closet.
This unit is a great value in a great building. A must see!

The Manchester is one of Kensington's most desirable post-war coops. What other building has such a large green outdoor space it has been called almost "private park" like, and an indoor parking garage list so small, you might have a spot the day you close? This of course is all in addition to what these days are the norms: 2 updated elevators, new central laundry, additional storage & a bike room. The building also boasts a full-time super who is not only skilled and on top of repairs, but actually friendly, in addition to a full time porter who keeps the building immaculate. The Manchester is a financially sound coop with a new roof, new windows and a new boiler. Located just off Cortelyou, it is just 3 blocks from the Ditmas Park Strip of great restaurants, bars, cafes and a weekend farmer's market. Public transportation options offer the Q, B, F & G trains nearby and many express buses. Prospect Park is a short walk away. Cats are permitted, sorry No Dogs
