Property Details
Description
With three-bedrooms, 12' soaring ceilings, a WOODBURNING FIREPLACE, exposed brick, and a renovated kitchen and bath, apartment 2C at 157 Waverly has remarkable proportions and a loft-like feel you'll fall in love with. A foyer welcomes you into the home and leads you to the voluminous living space. A wall of bookshelves and cabinetry charmingly frame the living room, while two enormous windows bring in glorious light. The spacious kitchen has classic white cabinetry, subway tile, stainless steel appliances, and black granite counters. The storage and workspace are abundant! A STACKED WASHER AND DRYER are discreetly tucked away in custom cabinetry next to the fridge. Adjacent to the kitchen is a separate dining area with an exposed brick wall and plenty of room to host a feast. The spacious primary bedroom also gets fantastic light through large south-facing windows, and features a double closet with overhead storage to the ceiling. Currently used as a home office, a huge walk-in closet can be found in the second bedroom. All three bedrooms are conveniently spaced apart, offering quiet and privacy. The renovated bath is roomy with a large vanity and modern finishes and fixtures. Offering approximately 1200 square feet of living space, with the 12' ceilings and towering windows, the apartment truly feels special! Situated in the heart of historic tree-lined Clinton Hill, 157 Waverly has a rich past as the home to The Golden Key Hotel and the Lenruth Theatre prior to that. Around the corner from all the great restaurants and shops of Myrtle Avenue, a short distance from Fort Greene Park, BAM and Pratt, the location is superb! Dogs on approval. (Please note, there is currently a monthly assessment of $130/month.)
