96 SCHERMERHORN Street #7D

Situated at the perfect intersection of Boerum Hill, Cobble Hill and Brooklyn Heights, this authentic 975 SF loft with soaring 12' ceilings and incredible light offers the space and drama of a pre-war building with the conveniences only afforded to a well-established full-service building with literally every amenity at your doorstep. Renovated completely just a few years ago with an eye towards maximizing space while never losing sight of the cool industrial origins of this Brooklyn Landmark, you will enjoy a sunny bedroom, a spacious home office, and 1.5 baths for the price of neighboring one-beds with WAY less space and style. Oversized southeast facing windows will never be blocked due to the fact that they look out over the Quaker meetinghouse, a low-rise building across the street listed on the National Register of Historic Places. You can be assured that your primary bedroom, spacious dining and living area, and open kitchen will be flooded with sunlight in perpetuity! A unique Soho-like vibe permeates the space throughout, from the distressed wide-plank wood floors to the oversized custom sliding doors from the Sliding Door company that enable light and openness when you want it, and privacy when you need it. This aesthetic is carried through into the chef's kitchen where a distinctive poured concrete countertop offers great work space, in addition to striking custom teak cabinetry that offers fantastic storage for all of your cooking needs, including a pull-out pantry and a large wall unit with a special niche perfect for keeping all of your appliances off your counter. A high-end appliance package includes a fully paneled Liebherr fridge and freezer, Miele cooktop, DeLonghi oven, GE dishwasher and microwave, all discretely concealed behind handmade artisanal millwork. In addition to a convenient powder room for guests, a spa-like bathroom has been envisioned as an ode to a calm and minimalist lifestyle. A large glass-enclosed wet room created of handmade Moroccan tiles includes both a walk-in shower enhanced with a naturalist Ipe floor and bench, and a rainfall showerhead. Most unexpected is the presence of a custom stainless Japanese soaking tub, a true masterpiece of Zen living. Enjoy a private toilet room for additional privacy, plus a concrete countertop and a wood vanity beneath for storage. An elevated Primary bedroom takes full creative advantage of the incredible ceiling heights, offering five drawers of storage built into the steps, plus even more storage located under three trap doors in the floor. This room is large enough to also accommodate a desk and dresser area, plus a spacious customized closet for all of your clothing. The spacious home office is now being used as a charming bedroom complete with 8' tall pocket sliding doors, a customized closet, and a transom window that brings in light from the living room. A gracious front hallway also awaits you after a long day, offering deep closets for seasonal clothing changes. For all of your bulk storage needs, don't miss hidden cabinetry above the hallway closets as well. In addition to a voluminous and light filled space with a distinctive aesthetic, this home also offers the convenience of recessed lighting with dimmer switches, a built-in three zone Bose stereo system with digital receiver, amplifier, and subwoofer, and an easily concealed AC system. This pet-friendly building also offers a commercially-sized laundry room, making doing your laundry a breeze, plus a full-time doorman and staff, a common rooftop with views of the Statue of Liberty, bike room, 24-hour package reception, and storage available. Amenities in every direction are unrivaled and include award-winning restaurants, local groceries and specialty shops such as Sahadi's and Trader Joe's, art galleries, bookstores, Equinox, yoga, spinning, Brooklyn Bridge Park, and literally every single subway line at Borough Hall just one stop to Manhattan.
