Only 10% downpayment Condo, why rent when you can buy! Discover the charm of one of the few pre-war Condo buildings close to Prospect Park! Seize the opportunity to reside in a meticulously-renovated, two-bedroom apartment with a roof deck that showcases the beauty of Brooklyn. This second-floor gem bathes in natural light courtesy of five rear-facing windows that ensure tranquillity throughout the day. Conveniently located just steps from Prospect Park and surrounded by the magnificent mansions of Prospect Park South and Ditmas Park, this pet-friendly condo apartment boasts vintage charm in the lobby and hallways, with high ceilings and an oversized fireplace mantel near the building's entrance. The property also offers its residents a convenient Amazon storage unit. After climbing just one flight of stairs to the second floor (often considered the best floor in a walk-up), you will notice the apartment's excellent layout. From the spacious entrance foyer with a large closet to the two king-sized bedrooms separated by a hallway for added privacy, the designer thoughtfully planned every detail over a century ago. The open living and dining area, with high ceilings and windows overlooking the quieter side of the building, reflects the well-crafted design that make this unit exceptional. The floors throughout the property have been updated with rich white oak. The unit has custom millwork, beautiful cabinetry, hardware, fixtures, high-grade appliances, a dishwasher, a microwave, and a washer and dryer. There is also access to washers and dryers in the basement for oversized laundry items. This condo apartment's low maintenance and low taxes check many boxes for buyers on a budget. The location could not be better: just one block from two good express subway lines in NYC, the B, and Q, you will be in Manhattan in less than 30 minutes. This property is located off the Parade Grounds entrance of Prospect Park, which offers convenience for transportation and recreation. Many restaurants, bars, and shops are nearby on Church Avenue, Cortelyou Road, and Prospect Park Southwest.
