Description

A Historic Gem & A Rare Find in Brooklyn Heights! Welcome to your new home in historic Brooklyn Heights! This floor-through oasis 1-bedroom (convertible 2) co-op offers the epitome of Brownstone Brooklyn living. As you step inside this light-filled home, you will be greeted by unique, over-sized, west-facing accordion-style doors that flood the living space with natural light, providing front-row seats to breathtaking sunsets over the East River and views over the Brooklyn Esplanade. The living room is a perfect blend of coziness and elegance, with 10ft high ceilings, detailed hardwood floors, built-in bookshelves, and a wood-burning fireplace that promises warmth during winter nights. The brand new, split A/C systems ensure comfort throughout the year. A separate, windowed kitchen with tons of storage, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances add to the space along with a large bathroom and in unit stackable washer & dryer. The home was just freshly painted, deck and deck furniture sanded & restored, and beautiful new plants added. The approximately 475-square foot private deck beckons you to dine al fresco while enjoying panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline. It's an ideal space for entertaining guests or simply relaxing with a good book as you take in the stunning vistas. It is quite rare to have this amount of outdoor space facing the water! The primary bedroom features a wall of custom closets and huge east-facing windows that offer morning sunlight and bucolic views of trees and neighboring brownstones. Additionally, there is a large office, dressing room, or nursery and a walk-in closet, providing the flexibility to adapt the space to your needs. This small, friendly, and historic co-op building has been impeccably maintained and recently underwent major capital improvements, including the restoration of the brownstone façade, new roof, and an updated gas boiler which have ensured that while the building retains its historical charm, it meets the needs of modern living. Residents enjoy access to a private, gated storage space in the basement and benefit from the building’s pet-friendly policy. Nestled in the heart of Brooklyn Heights, 162 Columbia Heights stands as a testament to the timeless charm and rich history of this coveted neighborhood. Built in 1846, 162 Columbia Heights has witnessed the transformation of Brooklyn Heights from a quiet residential area to a bustling urban neighborhood. The building's four stories house five unique units, each exuding character and a sense of history. Situated on arguably one of Brooklyn's best blocks in the entire borough, 162 Columbia Heights is just minutes away from subways, parks, shopping, and dining options. The building's location offers the unparalleled allure of Brooklyn Heights living, with its tree-lined streets, historic architecture, and vibrant community.
