The layout and proportions are simply smart and pleasing -- great sunlight everywhere, all day; multiple exposures and no wasted space. Transoms above every window let in even more light. The hallway off the foyer doubles as your art gallery. Ample, equitable bed rooms. The open concept floor plan is superb for entertaining and lets the party spill over from the kitchen to the huge terrace.

Librarians and DJs rejoice -- in your living room, a custom wall unit organizes hundreds of books / thousands of vinyl LPs. Ever see the movie Party Girl? Parker Posey plays an aspiring librarian who lives with a DJ and they drive each other crazy? In this condo, they would live happily ever after.

Turntables, TVs, toys and treasures are all organized and showcased; wire and cable management is unseen. In-ceiling speakers feature volume control in every room.

A grill on the terrace adjacent to the chef?s kitchen lets you pivot back and forth for ingredients to orchestrate masterful cookouts all summer, while watching the sun set over Manhattan. A gas line from the building to the grill means never having to buy charcoal again. Ascend to the common roof deck to soak in some sun and a panoramic skyline vista.

Bells and Whistles:
In-floor heating keeps your toes toasty and central air keeps you cool like Fonzie. Nest climate control is at your fingertips, as is the in-wall iPod dock. A home this enticing may mean lots of guests dropping by -- the video-intercom doorbell buzzer lets you screen your visitors before buzzing them in. Bosch appliances, including a space saving stacked washer and dryer in the unit. Recessed lighting everywhere. An elevator means never having to schlep your groceries up the stairs again.

Storage:
Your deeded storage unit is in the basement. Five floor-to-ceiling closets inside the unit; a coat closet in common hall; and common bike and stroller parking in the lobby.

Your Community:
Zig-zag down a different landmark block every day of the week on your way home. Java Street, abutting the Greenpoint historic district, by virtue of proximity makes it hard not to take the scenic route.

Around the corner is the India Street ferry pier. East River Ferry gets you to midtown, downtown, LIC and all over Brooklyn. Citi bikes at every stop, and a free midtown shuttle bus make the ferry a viable and serene commuting alternative to the subway.

Window shop the boutiques, and people watch in the bars and restaurants of the burgeoning retail corridor that is Franklin Avenue. Become a regular at Naked Dog on the corner and enjoy the best homemade pasta on West Street. Grab a fresh baked cookie at Ovenly on your way to Transmitter Park and watch the tugboats.

Other destinations in a 10 minute walking radius:

* PS 31 - a Nationally Recognized Blue Ribbon School of Excellence
* Paulie Gee?s and 21 Greenpoint (where Bill Murray has been known to guest bartend)
* Stock your wall unit at Academy Records and Word Books (and enjoy book signings and lectures)
* the most in-demand early childhood program in North Brooklyn, the YMCA Early Childhood Center at 176 Java

Walkable to more than 95 acres of local parks, playgrounds, green space, and waterfront, its no wonder Greenpoint is a most sought after destination for Brooklyn home buyers. Green thumbs are welcome to join the Java Street Community Garden next door.
