Agent's Note

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

Central heating and central air are already in place, and the kitchen comes with a dishwasher, a refrigerator and stainless steel appliances, so much of the daily setup is done. The washer and dryer are in the unit too. In-unit laundry is a real everyday convenience in New York, and here it's simply part of the apartment.

The living and dining area is open-concept, 22 feet wide, under 10-foot ceilings. That width gives a dining table and a sofa room without crowding either one. The kitchen has custom wood cabinetry, slate countertops, a 30-inch double oven gas range and a pantry, and because it sits within the same open space, cooking and hosting happen together.

The three oversized west-facing windows are the main light source for that room. West-facing windows get afternoon and evening sun, roughly 1:11 PM to 8:07 PM at the summer solstice and 1:15 PM to 6:32 PM at the fall equinox. Nearby buildings can block it, so it's worth seeing the room in the late afternoon before you decide.

The primary bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, a walk-in closet and a balcony. The second bedroom works well as a guest room or a home office. Private outdoor space is part of this home, with over 60 square feet of it, plus a 375-square-foot private roof deck reached by rooftop access. The elevator is keyed and opens directly into the foyer, and the listing notes a brand new elevator system.

Bergen Street on the F and G is about 12 minutes on foot, and Popina is about 3 minutes away. Union Market is about 7 minutes away, and Van Voorhees Playground is about 5 minutes. Brooklyn Bridge Park is about 10 minutes on foot.
