Description

81 Ryerson St #2 offers spacious duplex living with a massive private roof deck in Clinton Hill. One of two condo units in a 20-foot wide brick townhouse, 81 Ryerson offers immense space, privacy, and seriously low monthlies. This home was laid out to perfection, with an open floor plan great room and kitchen, perfect for entertaining, a floor with all three bedrooms and two full baths + laundry, and a private roof deck that increases the living space by another 800sqft. There is central AC, in-unit laundry, and ample storage, with multiple closets throughout and a built-in coat rack and cubbies off the dining room. The unit has a private entrance; up a set of stairs on the sunny second level is a spacious, open floor plan living room, chef's kitchen, powder room, dining room, and balcony. The living area is massive, more than enough room for a comfy oversized sectional, with three massive east-facing windows streaming in light and views of the leafy brownstone street. A stylish powder room for guests can be found behind a vintage farmhouse door with original hardware and privacy glass. The kitchen floats in the middle of this open space, ideal for entertaining and maximizing light from both sides. Ample cabinet space, timeless subway tile backsplash, and an island with a sink and dishwasher make this a great working chef's kitchen, with plenty of room on the island for bar stools to gather friends and family. A dining room in the rear has space for a party of 12, with sliding glass doors that open to the balcony for additional bistro seating and grilling. Up the staircase with minimalist slatted steel railings are two west-facing bedrooms that share a full bath. The primary suite has three oversized east-facing windows, two separate closets, and an ensuite bathroom accessed via a sliding barn door. Up one last flight of stairs is the incredible private roof decktwo massive areas spanning the full length of the townhouse, connected via a pergola. The current owners have set up a living room on the west-facing side and a dining room with a massive smoker on the east-facing side. This roof deck is an entertainer's paradise, and is great for setting up a dog run, gardening, and morethere is enough space to make it your own. This pet-friendly, 2-unit, self-managed condo with low monthlies and tons of space offers the best value in desirable Clinton Hill, right by Pratt Institute.
