Description

OPEN HOUSE FOR 1/24 CANCELED. Lovely and SUNNY one-bedroom home with a double-exposure set in a gorgeous, prewar elevator building in prime Kensington. As you enter you will love the entry foyer with a graceful archway leading to the back of the apartment. The windowed kitchen is set to the side and has been tastefully renovated with great cabinet and counter space. With sun shining in from two sides, the sweet bedroom has a double-exposure and feels both tranquil and bright. The living and dining room is spacious and has views of blue skies, treetops, and the varied roofs of Kensington homes. The incredibly low maintenance can?t be beat! All this, set in a well-maintained, elevator building with a live-in super, storage, bike room, and laundry. A perfect choice for a home set in a wonderful location near everything you could need, including the bike path, Prospect Park, shops on Church and Cortelyou, close to many neighborhoods of brownstone Brooklyn, and the F/G/Q trains for a short ride to Manhattan. Sorry, dogs are not permitted in this building.

Kensington is a residential Brooklyn neighborhood bordered by Prospect Park to the north and the landmarked Green-Wood Cemetery to the west, with Ocean Parkway running through its center as one of the borough's signature tree-lined boulevards. The housing stock includes brick rowhouses, prewar co-op apartment buildings along Ocean Parkway and Coney Island Avenue, and detached Victorian homes on the side streets, served by the F and G trains at Fort Hamilton Parkway and Church Avenue. The B and Q express trains are accessible within a short walk, providing a 30-to-35-minute commute to Midtown Manhattan.
