Description

Welcome to prime Kensington! This spacious, East-facing alcove studio can be your new home.
Its foyer offers two closets, and it is followed by a dining area / home office. The generous living room features 3 East-facing window, plus a sleeping alcove has a window - also facing East, creating ample lighting throughout the day. There are 2 more closets right outside the bathroom, making it a total of 4! Both the kitchen and the bathroom were renovated not long ago. The floors are in good condition, and one well functioning A/C unit will be included with the sale. Your maintenance will include all utilities except electricity. Your internet/cable choices are FIOS or Optimum. Not only can this unit be purchased with only a 10% down-payment, but sublet policy is one of the best among local Kensington co-ops.

It is hard not to appreciate the impeccable condition of the ultra-modern lobby, hallways, elevator, and mailroom. There is common laundry in the building that will be upgraded soon, and a friendly live-in Super. Live just off Cortelyou Rd., in the Kensington / Ditmas Park vicinity, with its quick access to dining and entertainment options. Choose between the Q or the F trains for a very reasonable commute to the city or to the beaches. An express bus stop is just a few blocks away, on Cortelyou as well. This is a cats-only building.

Kensington is a residential Brooklyn neighborhood bordered by Prospect Park to the north and the landmarked Green-Wood Cemetery to the west, with Ocean Parkway running through its center as one of the borough's signature tree-lined boulevards. 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.
