Description

Residence 2E is a sun-soaked, south-facing one bedroom in one of Kensington's finest, most sought after coops, The Manchester. This expansive home is an exceptionally strong value in an absolutely perfect Brooklyn location. Enter the residence to find a wide foyer with an ideal space for an office nook. To the left of the foyer is the renovated open kitchen, replete with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, storage space galore and a pass-through to the living area. The massive living room/dining room is perfectly symmetrical and allows for dedicated areas for both dining and living with space to spare. The wall of south-facing windows allows for gorgeous natural light while the apartment overlooks the building's swoon-worthy garden, truly one of the largest, and most impressive common outdoor spaces in Brooklyn. Adjacent the living room lies the sizable, symmetrical bedroom, easily able to accommodate a complete bedroom set. The bedroom windows also face south and therefore benefit from the same stunning natural light that graces the living room. The bathroom is fully tiled and features a brand new, full tub. Among the many standout features of this special home are its sparkling hardwood floors, exceptional light throughout, its four closets, custom recessed lighting and an incredibly low monthly maintenance fee. The Manchester is one of Kensington's most in-demand coops. Built in the 1960s and converted to a coop in the early 1980s, this exceedingly well-maintained property features onsite indoor parking and private storage units (there is currently a waitlist for both), bike storage for all residents (no waitlist), recently updated windows, a new roof, a central laundry room and, best of all, a sprawling shared outdoor space. Additionally, there is an attentive live-in super and a full time porter on staff. Dogs, however, are not allowed. Cats are welcome. Located at the nexus of Kensington and Ditmas Park, shopping, dining, and transportation options abound. The Ditmas Park side of Cortelyou Road and its abundance of options in which to dine or shop - not to mention its famed weekend farmer's market - is only three blocks away, while the Q, B, F and G trains are all short walks. There is a Citibike station less than a five minute walk as well. Don't miss this exceedingly rare opportunity to purchase a special unit in one of Brooklyn's most special buildings.

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.
