Description

Seller is becoming more flexible... Live your values in a beautiful, pre-war 4 room apartment that easily converts to a 2 bedroom one bath (approx. 700 sf) in probably the best of the self managed co-ops in Sunset Park! Many closets including a deep walk-in closet and a deep pantry closet (used to be a dumb waiter) in the kitchen, and three large overhead storage spaces. Pre-war details include high ceilings, picture moldings, large panel parquet floors with marquetry and crystal door knobs. The bathroom was recently retiled and has a new low flow toilet to comply with the co-op's green policies. The windows are all new double pained, tilt and clean. The large windowed eat-in kitchen has a view across the rooftops and trees , all the way to the Manhattan skyline as do the windows of the bedroom and bath. The apartment comes with a basement storage room 4ftx8ft and there is also bike storage. Climate change a concern? This is the first co-op in Brooklyn to put solar panels on the roof and offers a "community" organic picking herb garden! Additional gardening plots are available for anyone ambitious enough to create their own organic edibles plot. The laundry room is windowed and has been upgraded with new machines and there is a large clothes line area for hang drying in addition to the 4 oversized dryers for those who prefer that. The organic "shareholder" garden in the back and the lushly planted common courtyard are both maintained by the members. Besides the solar panles and low flow toilets, the insightful board is pursuing other green policies to get the maximum in rebates. There is a large community room which serves as a play room, work out space, musicians practice space, and has a pool table, ping pong table and a "fooz ball" table. The co-op is located across from the park (Sunset Park) which has a wonderful community center, as well as a pool and basketball courts and spectacular views of NY harbor and the city. There is an assessment of $20 per room that runs until Sept 2017. Cats are welcome but sorry no dogs. Shown by appointment only. Call 917-613-7382.
