Description

Classic prewar proportions, charm and detail meet modern sophistication in this lovely two-bedroom home in the heart of Brooklyn Heights. On the quiet end of a beautiful tree-lined block, the apartment features a stunningly renovated chef's kitchen with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, subway tile and stainless steel appliances including a professional-grade Wolf range, Miele dishwasher and Fisher/Paykel refrigerator. The windowed kitchen offers tons of counter-space and storage. The spacious open living/dining area has beautiful walnut floors with original inlay, two over-sized windows, and a very flexible layout. Both bedrooms are large and have two over-sized windows and sizable closets. The classic bath, which is in perfect shape and can be entered through the master bedroom or the hallway, boasts original subway tile, black and white octagon floor tile, a porcelain tub, a lovely pedestal sink and a vintage leaded glass window. Other features of the apartment include a welcoming foyer with a roomy coat closet, a large walk-in closet off the living room, three exposures, and 9' ceilings. A neo-classical, elevator building, "The Colonial" has a live-in super, central laundry and private storage in the basement. A block and a half from 6 different subway lines, and a short jaunt to all the businesses and amenities of Montague Street, Atlantic Avenue, Smith and Court Streets, as well as the Brooklyn Bridge Park and the Promenade--the location is amazing! Pets allowed too!
