Description

If you’ve been looking for a private outdoor space and room to sprawl, this bucket-list-ticking loft duplex has it all.

Enter into the sun-filled open dining / living area, framed by oversized windows that pour in light all day long. The modern kitchen, with its clean lines and stainless appliances, is ready for anything from quick weekday breakfasts to lingering Sunday dinners. Here on this level, you have a bedroom that offers a private en-suite bathroom, and a washer/dryer.

The second floor features a sun-filled open living area with soaring 16-foot ceilings that could also function as a primary suite with its own bath and a wood-burning fireplace. Step outside to enjoy over 315 sf of private outdoor space with skyline views - ideal for morning coffee, weekend entertaining, or creating your own urban garden.

Upstairs in the mezzanine, the owners have added a fully enclosed third bedroom - perfect as a private guest space, home office, or nursery, giving you flexibility as your needs evolve.

And here’s a rare Brooklyn bonus: a massive 72-square-foot private storage unit, so you can keep your home beautifully uncluttered without giving up bikes, gear, or seasonal treasures. The building offers a range of amenities including a resident gym and ButterflyMX video intercom system.

Commuting is effortless with the 2, 3, 4, and 5 trains just down the block at Franklin Avenue. You’re also moments away from iconic Brooklyn landmarks like the Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, and Brooklyn Public Library.

Your neighbors in the same radius include Cafe Mado & Lisbonata for sweet treats, restaurants like Lincoln Station & Chavela’s, nights out for every mood at numerous bars & hang-out spots on Washington and Franklin Avenue.

421A tax abatement in effect until 2033.
