Description

Back on the Market: Spacious elegance, Superb location

Part of the draw of The Clinton House is its manicured courtyard, pre-war charm and Art Deco inspired interiors. Towering in the shadow of Brooklyn College's ivy-covered walls and overlooking the tops of Midwood's stately homes, this co-op is everything you would want in a home. Apartment 5R features a beautifully laid out floor plan that offers flow, entertaining space, living space and ample storage, throughout generously sized rooms.

The foyer, flanked by two spacious closets, leads directly into a formal dining area and expansive living room, where 9 foot ceilings, arched entryways and wood built-ins reflect the grand proportions of this corner unit apartment. Two large western exposure windows and one in the kitchen floods this living area with afternoon light. The updated, modern galley kitchen boasts ample prep space, white cabinets and full suite of appliances, including a covered dishwasher. The sunny breakfast nook caps the kitchen, opening into the living room, and perfecting movement through this space.

Both the massive master bedroom, with its three large windows and a custom wardrobe, and the well-proportioned second bedroom, with its two windows and double closets, get light from two exposures. The sizable bathroom awaits your imprint, and features a window, stand-alone shower and bathtub, providing a generous canvas to create your bathroom oasis. This apartment is the best of move-in ready while allotting space to make it uniquely yours, as is reflected by the asking price. With polished hardwood floors throughout and freshly painted walls, your to-do list is even shorter. A modernized laundry room with new washer and dryers is located in the basement, along with storage space and bike room. The building is well cared for and has a live-in super. Cats only are permitted.

The Clinton House's location is exceptional. It's only a few blocks to two subway lines to Manhattan: the B and Q trains at Newkirk Plaza; and the 2 and 5 trains at Flatbush Junction. It is here that you will also find Target, HomeGoods, and a large variety of other shopping, dining and lifestyle options.

Flatbush features one of Brooklyn's most varied housing stocks, including grand detached Victorians along Ocean Avenue, limestone and brownstone rowhouses, prewar apartment buildings, and brick townhomes within landmarked districts like Prospect Park South and Ditmas Park. The Q, 2, and 5 trains connect the neighborhood to Manhattan, while Prospect Park's 526 acres of green space border the northern edge. The restored Kings Theatre, a 1920s-era landmark performance venue, and Erasmus Hall High School, founded in 1786, are among the area's most notable architectural features.
