645 E 26TH Street #3L

This spacious 2-bedroom apartment in a charming, pet-friendly pre-war elevator building offers an ideal layout and has been meticulously maintained. The home's character shines through its classic pre-war features, including high ceilings, hardwood floors with mahogany inlay, cove moldings, and chair rails, all complemented by thoughtful updates. A rare highlight is the generous storage, with an impressive six closets! Afternoon sunlight pours through nine tall windows, primarily west-facing in the living room, kitchen, and three-windowed bedroom. These windows not only bathe the apartment in natural light but also provide serene views of a lovely neighborhood home and mature trees, grounding you in the changing seasons. Upon entry, a cozy foyer with a convenient coat closet leads to a spacious dining room, which flows seamlessly into both the beautifully renovated windowed kitchen and a gracious living room. The updated kitchen balances classic design with modern touches, featuring an abundance of cabinetry-both solid white and glass-fronted-along with stainless steel appliances, sleek black quartz countertops, and a double sink with a pull-down spray faucet. The retro black-and-white ceramic tile floor offers a fresh take on the pre-war aesthetic. Expansive countertops provide ample workspace, while a versatile niche serves as a breakfast bar, home office, or whatever suits your needs. The renovated windowed bathroom exudes spa-like elegance, showcasing a striking marble floor, a walk-in shower with mini marble tiles and a glass enclosure, a pedestal sink, and a sleek one-piece Toto toilet. 645 East 26th Street is located on a quiet, tree-lined street near Brooklyn College, Midwood High School, and PS 152, with a wonderful neighborhood playground just a few blocks away at Bedford and Glenwood. The nearby Flatbush Junction offers easy access to multiple transportation and shopping options, with Triangle Junction Shopping Center-featuring Target, HomeGoods, and Aldi-just four blocks away. The local schools boast modern play areas for children, and Brooklyn College's track and soccer field are within a short distance of this well-located co-op. This beautifully maintained, pet-friendly apartment now allows for a minimum down payment of 10% and the unit effortlessly combines pre-war charm with modern conveniences, making it a true gem in the Midwood/Ditmas Park-adjacent neighborhood.
