Description

Beautifully gut-renovated two bedroom, two bathroom cooperative located on one of Brooklyn Height's best blocks.

This meticulously designed home brings the best of both worlds, combining contemporary styling in a classic setting. The windowed kitchen features high-end stainless steel appliances by Blomberg and Verona, which are complemented by crisp white cabinets, a tiled backsplash and marble counter tops. Hardwood floors and beamed ceilings span the entire home and the bright and airy living area is sunlit throughout the day.

The expansive master suite features an entire wall dedicated to custom closets and the en-suite windowed bath includes an all glass shower, herringbone marble flooring and a custom double sink vanity.

This well-managed, 10 story building has even more to offer with a full time doorman, full time superintendent, newly updated common areas, central basement laundry and a bicycle storage room.

Only steps away from the Brooklyn Heights Promenade with its spectacular views of the Manhattan skyline and the Statue of Liberty, the building is also situated close to several subway lines and the best shops and restaurants Brooklyn Heights has to offer.

Maintenance includes all utilities, 80% financing permitted, guarantors permitted, pied-a-terre allowed and pets are ok.
