The Lamont is a six-story, midcentury co-op in Brooklyn’s Homecrest neighborhood, completed in 1957 and containing 17 primarily one- and two-bedroom residences. The masonry façade conceals a traditionally laid-out building with two passenger elevators and a staffed doorman entry. Interiors typically feature foyer or dining areas, multiple closets per apartment, hardwood floors beneath some coverings, windowed kitchens and original-to-updated bathrooms; several units include deeded garage parking or access to a building garage. Shared spaces include a recently renovated lobby and hallways, ground-floor laundry, a community room/children’s playroom, on-site storage available for rent, and a planted roof deck currently being brought online. Building systems are modernized in places (elevators, laundry) and wired for FIOS/Optimum. The co-op’s maintenance covers heat, hot water and gas; board approval and resale rules (including restrictions on parents buying for children, typical financing minimums, and sublet policies) apply. Pet approvals are handled case by case. Located between Kings Highway and Ocean Avenue, the property is two blocks from the Kings Highway B/Q subway stop with a straightforward commute into Midtown and convenient driving access to nearby beaches, Marine Park and local retail and dining corridors.
