Description

Sunny studio in a beautiful pre-war elevator building on one of Brooklyn Height's loveliest blocks. Beamed ceilings, paneled doors and wide room dimensions characterize the solid pre-war architecture. There is a window in every room and great walk-in closet. New floors and fresh paint make this perfect first home or pied-a-terre move in ready. The Remsen is a grand 1929 building whose distinctive facade often attracts the gaze of neighborhood tour groups. The lobby has been lovingly maintained and the hallways were all recently renovated. This pet friendly building is staffed with a full time superintendent and 24/7 attended lobby. There is a bike room and newly renovated basement laundry room. This prime location is one block from the famed Promenade, close to the new Brooklyn Bridge Park, and near the shops, restaurants and transportation of Brooklyn Heights.
