Description

Don't miss this one! - An all new, completely renovated & move-in ready spacious 2 bedroom, 1 bath coop at The Manchester. Conveniently located in prime Kensington, just off Cortelyou Rd., This corner unit has an eat-in-kitchen, separate dining area, large living room with space for a home office and 2 bedrooms. The windowed kitchen easily fits a good size table and has all new cabinetry, granite counters and new appliances including a dishwasher. The master bedroom is large with a big closet and easily fits a King size bed and more. The 2nd bedroom also is a very good size with 2 exposures and a closet. There are freshly refinished hardwood floors in a matte finish throughout.The apartment boasts 6 closets and is equipped with new through-wall ac units. South and Western exposures on a higher floor make this treetop unit bright and sunny all day long

The Manchester is one of Kensingtons most desirable mid-century coops. What other building has such a large green almost park-like outdoor space, and an indoor parking garage list so small, you might have a spot the day you close? This of course is all in addition to what these days are the norms: 2 updated elevators, new central laundry, additional storage & a bike room. The building also boasts a full-time super who is not only skilled and on top of repairs, but actually friendly, in addition to a full time porter who keeps the building immaculate. The Manchester is a financially sound coop with a new roof, new windows, and a new boiler. Located just off Cortelyou, it is just 3 blocks from the Ditmas Park Strip of great restaurants, bars, cafes and a weekend farmers market. Public transportation options offer the Q, B, F & G trains nearby and many express buses. Prospect Park is a short walk away. Cats are permitted, sorry No Dogs

The housing stock includes brick rowhouses, prewar co-op apartment buildings along Ocean Parkway and Coney Island Avenue, and detached Victorian homes on the side streets, served by the F and G trains at Fort Hamilton Parkway and Church Avenue. The B and Q express trains are accessible within a short walk, providing a 30-to-35-minute commute to Midtown Manhattan.
