Description

This spacious 5th floor apartment is conveniently located in prime Kensington. As a corner unit it offers more privacy and a layout that packs in more square footage than most other one-bedrooms in the same building. Upon entering a foyer you will notice a generous size dining area with a double closet. The living room is east facing and it gets a generous amount of light. A newly renovated kitchen boasts modern finishes and stainless steel appliances by Samsung. It also offers ample quartz countertops and cabinetry. The bathroom features a brand new medicine cabinet and vanity. The three windows of a king sized bedroom with a double closet are facing east as well, allowing you to start your days right by embracing the morning sun. You will not have to compromise on your storage needs with 5 closets at your disposal. The apartment has been freshly painted, and it features hardwood floors throughout, with newly replaced baseboards. Two in-sleeve A/C units will stay for your use.

495 East 7th Street was built in 1962 and has 85 units spread over 7 stories. This elevator building has recently completed a modernization of its common areas and has a central laundry, bicycle area, storage rentals, and parking lot (wait-listed). It also allows subleasing with board approval after owner occupancy.
Conveniently located off Cortelyou Road near cafes, popular restaurants, weekend Farmer's Market and a short walk to Prospect Park. Nearest transportation includes Q, B, F, G trains, B68 to Park Slope and downtown Brooklyn, and express buses to Manhattan.
