Description

Welcome to 679 Vanderbilt Avenue #2R, a gracious and beautifully proportioned two-bedroom home in the heart of Prospect Heights. With soaring ceilings, oversized rooms, a working wood-burning fireplace, in-unit laundry, and abundant storage, this special co-op offers the kind of space and character that is hard to find.

At the front of the apartment, the expansive living room is flooded with natural light all day long through two oversized west-facing windows and two side windows providing northern and southern light. A working wood-burning fireplace with an ornate wood mantel serves as the focal point of the room, while the generous proportions easily accommodate multiple seating areas without ever feeling crowded.

Beyond the living room is large separate dining room- cabinetry stretches nearly the length of the room, providing exceptional storage while creating a clean, streamlined look.

The kitchen is thoughtfully designed with abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, and stainless-steel appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher and range. Tucked conveniently within the apartment is a stacked washer and dryer.

Privately situated away from the main living spaces, the two bedrooms are both generously sized. The primary bedroom easily accommodates a king-size bed while still offering ample room for a home office. The second bedroom is equally versatile and well-proportioned. The renovated bathroom features timeless finishes, a marble-topped vanity, and excellent storage.

Throughout the home you'll find beautiful hardwood floors, high ceilings, oversized windows, and great room proportions.

Additional amenities include a large storage area in the basement and convenient hooks for strollers on the first floor.

Situated on one of Prospect Heights' most beloved avenues, 679 Vanderbilt Avenue places you moments from Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Grand Army Plaza, and the neighborhood's celebrated restaurants, cafés, and shops. With easy access to multiple subway lines and some of Brooklyn's most treasured destinations, the location is every bit as compelling as the home itself.

Pets allowed.
