Description

Penthouse A at the Robert Livingston is a sprawling, exceptionally bright top floor studio set within an impressive, full-service luxury building in highly sought after Downtown Brooklyn. Far superior to an average studio and incredibly rare in the studio marketplace in general, this lovely home provides ample space for separate living, dining and sleeping areas while the monthly maintenance fee includes ALL utilities, making for an exceptional value. Enter PHA to find pristine parquet floors and a wall of windows providing all-day brightness while facing the quiet rear of the building. Light and views abound, and with no neighbors above, PHA offers a sense of quiet rarely found in NYC, particularly in a bustling neighborhood like Downtown Brooklyn. As you traverse the long entry foyer, you'll first find two large, deep closets, followed by the dedicated dining area and the kitchen. The kitchen features modern stainless appliances, granite countertops, a tiled backsplash and excellent storage space. Outside the kitchen lies the oversized living space replete with high ceilings and a central HVAC system which provides both heating and cooling at NO COST; it is temperature-controlled by each individual resident rather than by the building. There are two more large closets for a total of four, and there is plenty of space for both a large living room with two seating areas along with a king-sized sleeping area which could be further privatized with ease. The bathroom, meanwhile, is near-fully tiled while featuring a full tub and new hardware. The Robert Livingston is an immaculately maintained full service luxury building. Among the exceptional staff is the live-in super, 24 hour doorman, porters and a maintenance team. There is a brand new, gorgeous fitness center onsite along with storage and parking available for rent. Subletting, Co-purchasing, Pied a Terre usage and Gifting are all allowable with board approval. At the crossroads of Brooklyn Heights, Downtown Brooklyn, Boerum Hill and Cobble Hill, The Robert Livingston could not be more centrally-located. The 2,3,4,5,A,C,F and R trains get you to Manhattan in minutes, while nearby shopping, recreation, and dining options are unparalleled. Penthouse A provides a truly rare opportunity to purchase an affordable home in a highly sought after neighborhood set within a proper full service, luxury building. What are you waiting for?!

Broker Commission Disclosure: Broker commissions are not set by law and are fully negotiable.

How working with a buyer's agent works: I work for you, not the seller. Before I show you anything, New York brokerage rules ask us to put that in writing: an agreement and a disclosure that say I work for you and negotiate on your behalf. The agreement is non-exclusive: you can work with other agents, it runs for a short fixed term we agree on, and you can end it with a note. You may attend open houses independently without an agreement. Read how it works
