This generously proportioned gem is located in a rare cast iron bldg. which was once the home to The Golden Key Hotel which had a rich history in the 1940?s before it was converted into this delightful 14 unit boutique condop bldg. Apartment boasts 12 ft. ceilings, over sized arched windows, recessed lighting, exposed brick, hardwood floors and ample closet space!

The bedroom boasts 2 walk-in closets so there is plenty of space to house your couture! The open kitchen is stylishly appointed with white cabinets offering ample storage space and complemented by midnight black granite counter tops.

Located in Clinton Hill yet bordering Ft Greene gives you the best of both neighborhoods-plenty of quaint eateries, shops and restaurants nearby.
