The inviting foyer features two large closets of five total throughout the home, ensuring ample storage for your needs. The foyer leads into a sunlit living/dining area, exceeding 25 feet in length. With a Western exposure, you'll enjoy picturesque views of Downtown Brooklyn above the lush tree canopy surrounding the property. French bi-fold doors open into a versatile secondary bedroom/office, which conveniently connects to the kitchen with a pocket door.

It features an Aquasana water filtration system, full-height shaker-style cabinets with soft-close technology & undermount LED lighting, a white subway tile backsplash, and exquisite London Gray Caesarstone countertops. The primary bedroom offers a sense of grandeur at 200 square feet, with dual exposures (Western & Northern) offering vistas of the East River and Williamsburg Bridge. It includes two spacious closets and can easily fit a king-sized bedroom set alongside a work-from-home area. The bathroom is fully tiled and vented, echoing the kitchen's high-quality finishes, and has a new large mirrored medicine cabinet & vanity.

Additional amenities include on-site parking, bike and storage spaces, playgrounds, and a lush BBQ area. Recent upgrades to the cooperative include a multi-million dollar renovation of the parking lot with LED lighting and new custom double-pane windows. Upcoming projects plan to enhance the interior spaces and modernize elevators.
