40 REMSEN Street #4

The entrance to this parlor floor co-op is through an impressive lobby complete with grand staircase and fireplace. As you go in, the first things you notice are the expanse of mahogany doors and paneling, stained glass panels and massive pocket doors. A wall of carved mahogany bookshelves - some complete with gargoyles - would be perfect for a bibliophile or collector. The apartment has fourteen foot ceilings and is flooded with light. In the bedroom alone there are four tall windows, each with a cushioned window seat, original shutters, as well as an etched glass door to a charming small deck. The living room, with a windowed dining bay, has a large brick and tile fireplace; its counterpart in the bedroom is outlined with exquisite Majolica work, which also surrounds its hearth. The large marble bathroom has a deep soaking tub. The newly renovated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a washer dryer. It's one of a kind! Located on one of the best tree lined streets in Brooklyn Heights. Convenient to multiple train lines, trendy restaurants, gourmet shopping as well as Trader Joe's and the new 1.3 mile Brooklyn Bridge Park along Brooklyn's East River edge.
