About This Property
Experience elevated Brooklyn living in the heart of the Brooklyn Navy Yard. This pristine two bedroom residence is located in the award-winning Navy Green, a LEED-certified development designed by FXFowle Architects. This exceptional opportunity is enhanced by remarkably low common charges, a 421-A tax abatement, and an impressive collection of amenities, all at under $1,000 per square foot. With taxes abated until 2042, this home offers an attractive combination of value, design, and convenience.
This bright and spacious 2 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom corner residence is surrounded by expansive windows, with desirable north and west exposures showcasing an amazing view of the Williamsburg Bridge and sweeping Brooklyn views. Beautiful oak hardwood floors run throughout the home, complemented by radiant natural sunlight. The expansive living and dining area is framed by oversized windows with ample room for a proper dining table. Adjacent to the living space, the galley kitchen is finished with Caesarstone countertops, ample cabinetry, and a stainless steel appliance package including a dishwasher and microwave. The primary king sized bedroom is highlighted by dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows and impressive views, while the second bedroom offers flexibility as a bedroom, home office, or guest room. The bathroom is finished with porcelain wall tiles, a European-designed soaking tub, polished chrome fixtures, and a sleek vanity.
At Navy Green, luxury and convenience extend beyond your doorstep with a selection of top-notch building amenities, including a 30,000-square-foot verdant courtyard and garden, an exquisitely landscaped rooftop deck with BBQ facilities and panoramic views of the East River, Manhattan, and Downtown Brooklyn. The elegantly designed glass-framed lobby boasts a comfortable seating area, complemented by two elevators for convenience. Additional features include a fitness room, bike storage, cold storage, laundry facilities, superintendent services, and a cutting-edge cloud-based smart intercom system.
The Navy Yard stands as one of the most captivating revitalizations in New York City. This historic landmark, with roots tracing back to the 17th century, has evolved into a thriving hub and a community of visionaries in technology, art, architecture, and culinary arts. Nearby, you'll find Wegman's Food Markets and the eagerly awaited The Hall Development, encompassing 10 buildings and over 650,000 square feet, poised to become a new epicenter for retail, dining, and creative offices. Buildings 77 and 92 house renowned destinations such as Russ & Daughters and Transmitter Brewing, while the NYC Ferry are a stone's throw away from Building 77. Enjoy an unhurried, open-air commute directly into Downtown and Midtown Manhattan!
This cultural enclave in Brooklyn adjoins Clinton Hill, Fort Greene, Bed-Stuy, Dumbo, and Williamsburg. Positioned mere moments from Fort Greene Park, Myrtle Avenue, and Dekalb Avenue-two of Brooklyn's most vibrant culinary thoroughfares. Public transportation options abound, with CitiBike stations across the street, B57/B69/B62 buses just around the corner, and the F line on York, as well as the A, C, F, and R lines on Jay St - MetroTech, and the G line on Clinton-Washington Avenue. Seamless access to the BQE, Brooklyn Bridge, and Manhattan Bridge completes the picture of effortless urban connectivity!
Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Corcoran Group.
Navy Green, the LEED-certified development designed by FXFowle Architects, has a 30,000-square-foot courtyard and garden and a rooftop deck with barbecue facilities. The deck looks out over the East River, Manhattan and Downtown Brooklyn. The building also has an elevator, cold storage, a bike room and laundry facilities, and pets are allowed.
Unit 9H is a corner residence with north and west exposures, so it's got more windows than a middle unit usually does. A corner position often brings extra exposure and a wider outlook, though what you actually get depends on orientation and the buildings around it. West-facing windows get direct sun from about 1:11 PM to 8:07 PM at the summer solstice, roughly seven hours, and from about 12:34 PM to 4:07 PM at the winter solstice. North-facing windows get direct sun only around the summer solstice, early in the morning and early in the evening. Nearby buildings can block some of it.
The primary king bedroom has floor-to-ceiling windows, and oak hardwood runs through the home. The living and dining area has oversized windows and room for a proper dining table, which matters if you host. The second bedroom works as a bedroom, a home office or a guest room.
The galley kitchen sits beside the living space and has Caesarstone countertops, ample cabinetry and a stainless steel package that includes a dishwasher and microwave. The bathroom has porcelain wall tiles, a European-designed soaking tub and polished chrome fixtures.
Fort Greene Park is about 9 minutes away on foot, and Navy Yard Farm, a greengrocer, is about 3 minutes away. Russ & Daughters, a deli, is about 2 minutes away. The East River is about 5 minutes away on foot.
