Description

Welcome to 220 Congress street apartment 5E! This OVERSIZED corner one bedroom (can be used as a 1 bedroom + den/home office) in the heart of Cobble Hill is a dream come true: offering gracious proportions, lovely light and views from every room, hardwood floors throughout, all in a meticulously maintained coop on a historic tree-lined block. Upon entering the space you're welcomed by an oversized foyer currently used as a dining room and you are wowed by the abundance of storage space - three closets just in the entry way! Your windowed Eat-In Kitchen is fully equipped with Stainless Steel appliances, including a dishwasher, and offers ample storage space. The living space is generous and offers a variety of uses including space for a home office, and the seamless transition between the kitchen and the dining space offers great entertaining possibilities. Your lovely views of historic townhomes and pre-war landmarked architecture complete the serene feeling. Your King-sized bedroom is sprawling and sunny, and the corner windows offer views of the majestic Manhattan skyline -- you can see the Freedom Tower right from your bed! The bedroom is equipped with a custom closet with built-in shelving and a ceiling fan. The crisp bathroom (also windowed!) is finished in classic white subway tiles and has a pedestal sink, newly reglazed tub, and a medicine cabinet. Right beside it is yet another huge closet! This Pet-Friendly elevator coop is spotlessly maintained with manicured gardens and offers a central laundry room, live-in super, and bike storage (with a separate fee). The building also offers additional storage and parking which are on a wait-list basis. There is a new back yard patio with tables, chairs, flowers, and an herb garden for your green thumb. It's no accident that Cobble Hill is one of Brooklyn's most coveted neighborhoods: in addition to the beautiful historic architecture, tons of cafes and restaurants, book shops, and boutiques, Cobble Hill also offers amazing subway access allowing you to be in the city in 15 minutes! The F train is a block away and the 2,3,4,5 trains at Borough Hall are a short stroll away. Not to mention you're right around the corner from the jewel-like Cobble Hill Park! You're surrounded by shopping options such as Trader Joe's, Union Market, Sahadi's... Want to work out all the calories? No shortage of gyms and exercise studios in Cobble Hill: New York Sports Club, Blink Fitness, YMCA, Equinox is 7 blocks away too, and too many Barre and Yoga studios to mention. Currently zoned for PS 29. Cobble Hill truly has it all: contact us for a private showing today!
