Description

This bright apartment is a happiness booster! Walking inside you are greeted with a proper foyer and coat closet . Your mood lightens as you see sunshine stream through the large living room and kitchen windows. Even more happiness inducing is the quiet. Located on the rear of the building the windows overlook Grace Court Alley - Brooklyn's most coveted row of landmarked carriage houses. The spacious living room has plenty of space for seating and a dining table or desk. The renovated windowed kitchen has quartz counters, ingenious pull-out cutting board, white cabinetry, Fisher & Paykel dishwashing drawer and stove. A small hallway leads to the bathroom and bedroom. Opposite the bathroom and adjacent to the bedroom is a closet that is so large it would easily convert to a home office. The enormous bedroom comfortably accommodates a king sized bed plus whatever suits your needs - wall to wall closets, desk, or even a seating area. Hardwood floors run throughout. Brand new Windmill AC units and Minka Aire ceiling fans in the living room and bedroom. Perfectly located on Remsen Street between Hicks and Henry, 'The Remsen' is a grand 1929 building with one of Brooklyn's most distinctive facades. The ornate hand carvings in the lobby have been lovingly maintained and the building mechanicals are in immaculate condition. This pet friendly building is staffed with a full time superintendent and 24/7 attended lobby. There is a bike room and laundry room. The location is prime: one block from the famed Promenade, close to Brooklyn Bridge Park, and near the shops, restaurants and transportation of Brooklyn Heights. Monthly maintenance fee includes all utilities except wifi/cable.
