Description

This super sunny and unique townhouse-like 2-bed, 2 bath duplex condo sits just a half a block from Fort Greene Park and is a rarely available gem located in Brooklyn's coolest location. Surrounded on all sides by leafy green trees, plus Fort Greene Park, a magnificent Olmstead designed park with off-leash dog hours from 9pm until 9am, and an abundance of award-winning restaurants, cafes and bars in literally every direction. You will not be disappointed with the abundance of light, the volume of space, and the rare opportunity to live in a boutique 6-unit elevator building that still maintains the intimacy of the neighboring brownstones. There is even a shared common roofdeck with panoramic views if you don't feel like walking across the street to Fort Greene Park!

This like-new condominium duplexes up from the 2nd floor to the 3rd floor, ensuring maximum light and privacy all day long on both levels. A striking modern design on the exterior leads you into a warm and minimalist interior aesthetic that creates the perfect backdrop for whatever your style. Offering high ceilings and curtain-wall windows on both floors, you can be assured of incredible sunlight with lush green views from both your living room and 2nd bedroom on the 2nd floor, and your primary suite on the 3rd floor.

Step off the elevator into a Zen-like living space that offers the perfect juxtaposition of warm wood finishes mixed with understated and elegant modern touches. Black and white flat-front modern cabinetry with finger pulls are perfectly meshed together with the addition of Gotham Gray honed Italian Quartz countertops and backsplash, as practical as it is beautiful. An oversized entry closet and convenient vestibule can easily be divided into a pantry as well to accommodate all of your culinary tools should you decide to forsake the amazing restaurants right outside your door. Wide plank character-grade oak floors add a historical warmth to every room in the house. And don't miss the multi-zoned heating and cooling to keep you comfortable all year long. A suite of double-paned Shuko windows throughout the home offer vast expanses of glass for incredible airiness, while also ensuring peace and quiet from the sounds of the city. It's a masterful combination that guarantees maximum light with unrivaled soundproofing.

A sculptural glass and steel staircase provides the perfect separation between your common living spaces and guest room on the 2nd floor, and a generous primary suite upstairs on the 3rd floor. This unique townhouse-style separation is a rare and hard-to-find amenity in most condos and allows for incredible quiet and privacy in the primary suite should you have visitors, or a work-from-home situation. By having your primary suite dedicated to a floor of its own, you will also enjoy two gracious closets and a very spacious ensuite bath complete with double vanity. This entire floor makes a wonderful hideaway and is large enough for a king-sized bed, extra desk, and dresser space. You will never want to leave! The second bedroom downstairs is equally generous and is accompanied by a full bath on that floor, plus your very own full-sized LG washer and dryer tucked away beneath the staircase.

In addition to the elevator, the building also includes a Virtual Doorman Latch system for easy package drop off and pickup. Pets, investors, subletting, and parents buying for children are all allowed. Transportation options are many and include subway access at Dekalb and Lafayette Avenues. Amenities on Myrtle and Dekalb right outside your door are a dream and include grocery stores, gyms, salons, galleries, and of course, don't miss BAM, Dekalb market, and Wegmans all a stone's throw away. Nearby restaurants include such favorites as Sailor, Evelinas, Third Falcon, Café Paulette, Strange Delight, Walters, Miss Ada's, Colonia Verde, Margot, and Romans, to name just a few incredible spots that will change your life!
