25 PLAZA Street W #4E

Around the bend from Prospect Park and across from the beautifully restored Plaze Street berm, this tranquil studio awaits. Entering the space, there is a coat closet immediately to the left and a substantial landing that can be used as a dining area or home library. The sunken living / sleeping area is over 265 sq/ft - plenty of room for every configuration imaginable. The east-facing window brings in tons of morning light and the high ceilings contribute to a truly palatial experience. The rail-car kitchen is bathed in sunset light thanks to it's west-facing window. The floors have been retiled and the counters/appliances are ready for simple upgrades or a top-shelf renovation. Further into the apartment past three closets, the full bathroom comes with full-sized tub and west-facing window. The original hardwood floors have been refinished, walls primed and prepped for painting, bathroom cleaned and tub reglazed. Built in 1941, The Berkeley is a six-story elevator building with two roof decks: one facing the arch at Grand Army Plaza and the other providing stunning views of Brooklyn, Manhattan and New York Harbor in between. The building entrance sits in the middle of the block, flanked by lush, fragrant gardens. The building offers shared laundry and bike storage - both accessible via the elevators. Additionally, there is a storage room and parking garage within the building - please note there is a waitlist for both. There is a live-in super as well as 7-day doorman (8am to midnight). The building is pet-friendly. The 2/3 train is at the end of the block with the B/Q trains just beyond on Flatbush. Atlantic Barclays is down the hill and houses myriad subways as well as the LIRR to get out of town. There is a wealth of nearby restaurants and cafes on 7th Ave and on Flatbush. There is an even wider selection of food and shopping on Vanderbilt and Washington in neighboring Prospect Heights. Union Market is around the corner along with Soul Cycle, an enormous Crunch gym and multiple pharmacies. Grand Army Plaza plays host to a spectacular Farmer's Market on Saturday mornings. Just beyond, the Brooklyn Library, Botanic Gardens and Brooklyn Museum line Eastern Parkway. The Park Slope Food Coop is two blocks down on Union and saving the best for last, Prospect Park is one block away serving as a respite from the hustle of city life.
