Description

This tastefully appointed, sunny and spacious 2BR corner apartment is located on a leafy, bucolic block in beautiful Fort Greene.  The apartment features ample living and dining space with a much-sought-after open kitchen and breakfast bar.  The modernized kitchen comes complete with marble countertops, stainless appliances including dishwasher and microwave, and tons of storage for all of your cookware and tableware.  Both bedrooms are well-proportioned and bright and feature large customized closets, and the bath is modern with plenty of toiletry storage as well.  Hardwood floors, crown moldings, and updated door hardware and fixturing can be found throughout. Top it off with the convenience of an in-unit washer and dryer!  This 10-unit co-op is financially sound and offers both storage for a fee and free bicycle storage.  Close to the C and G trains as well as all major subway lines at Atlantic Terminal, and a multitude of shopping and dining options are only blocks away.  And, Fort Greene Park is just around the corner.  Come home and live well.  First showings at our open house on Sunday May 15th.
