385 ARGYLE Road #4H

There's something about this apartment that just feels good the moment you walk in! Set on a quiet, tree-lined block in Ditmas Park, this one-bedroom (convertible two!) co-op has been thoughtfully updated in a way that allows it's pre-war character to shine. The rooms are well-proportioned, the layout is easy, and ample sunlight gives the whole place a warm, lived-in glow, especially in the afternoon! This home features a landing before you even enter the living room, so you can kick off your shoes. The living room is oversized, the primary bedroom is so large many have converted it to two bedrooms! The entire home feels flexible, and, depending on how you want to live, it can be open and airy, or a little more tucked away. The layout is comfortable and practical, with ample storage. The eat- in kitchen and bathroom are windowed and spacious. The building is one of those solid, well-run co-ops with a live-in super, elevator, laundry, gym, playroom, and additional storage options. Financials required are straightforward: 20% down, up to a 30% debt-to-income ratio, and one year of post-closing reserves. Subletting is allowed after three years (for up to five years total), and cats are welcome. Sorry, no dogs! 385 Argyle is located a couple of blocks to Cortelyou Road, with its mix of cafés, restaurants, and the weekend farmer's market. The Q train is two blocks away, so getting into Manhattan is easy. It's the kind of true home that doesn't try too hard - it just works.
