271 McDonald Avenue 3B

Agent's Note

From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Compass.

The private rooftop garden is the unusual feature here. It's reached by an internal staircase and has custom raised planter beds, so you could grow your own vegetables or a pollinator flower garden. In the city, a private garden like this is a meaningful outdoor amenity, and it's one you'll use on your own schedule.

The apartment also has a balcony off the living room, which gives you a second place to sit outside. The listing describes the home as light-filled, and the open-concept plan connects the living room to the kitchen, which suits entertaining. An open plan gives up some separation between cooking and relaxing, but it makes a 1,268-square-foot home feel more connected.

The kitchen has custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a bespoke chevron tile backsplash, a gas cooktop, and stainless steel appliances, along with a kitchen island and a dishwasher. The dishwasher is a practical daily convenience, and the island gives you a place to work or eat.

The primary bedroom has an ensuite bath. The oversized second bedroom is split into two distinct spaces, so you could set one up as a guest room and the other as an office, or return it to its original format. A washer and dryer are in the unit, and central heating and central air are included in the home's features.

Prospect Park is about 13 minutes on foot, and Greenwood Playground is about 5 minutes away. The F and G trains at Church Av are about 7 minutes on foot, and Fort Hamilton Pkwy is about 8. Brancaccio's Food Shop is about 2 minutes away, and Foodtown is about 6. The listing also includes an oversized, deeded parking space, and cats and dogs are allowed.
