Description

This sprawling Clinton Hill CONDO offers 3+ bedrooms and a fabulously flexible layout! On the second floor of a pre-war, eight-unit limestone building, this home features charming period details including wainscoting, crown molding, high coffered ceiling, and hardwood floors with walnut inlay. The renovated kitchen has granite counters, cherry cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and fantastic storage and counter space. The large front room, which can be used as a main living space or a bedroom, is framed by three large windows, bringing in lovely light throughout the day. Three additional bedrooms and a separate dining area (currently used as the living/dining area combined) give this apartment the feel of a townhouse. There is also a common garden, and free central laundry, bike storage and separate storage rooms for each unit in the basement. Located in the heart of Clinton Hill, one block from the subway, surrounded by great shopping and restaurants, near Fort Greene Park, Brooklyn Flea and Pratt, the location is wonderful. Low common charges and taxes. Pet friendly too!
