Property Description for 44 Cheever Place, 505

Get ready to be WOWED! This apartment has it all! Spectacular penthouse triplex loft set in a former 1920’s elementary school with parking included. The building is still remarkably well preserved in the original schoolhouse style. Upon entering from the charming hallway, you will be transported into this stunning condo that spells the epitome of modern grace. This jaw dropping and expansive space is awash in gorgeous soft light bouncing off the 12-foot vaulted ceilings and full-height wall of windows. Fully equipped open kitchen with an abundance of cabinet and counter space plus washer/dryer, pull-out pantry, and stainless steel appliances invite you to imagine elaborate meals and dinner parties. Two large bedrooms - the master bedroom is especially huge - both with excellent closet space and sunny open views. Plus two full baths, one ensuite to the master bedroom and one on the 2nd level. Unique and magical top floor “bonus” room in the sky offers the ultimate private sanctuary, with two exposures plus an enormous skylight and private deck with sweeping views of all the way from downtown Brooklyn to the Verrazano Bridge to lower Manhattan. It creates the perfect spot to curl up with a book, get some serious work done, or give that surly teenager some space. Step out onto the shared roof deck, currently in the works, for a bird’s-eye view of July 4th fireworks. Set on a quiet and charming block in highly desirable Cobble Hill, this elevator building is pet friendly and offers private storage plus bike storage. A rare opportunity to truly live in style, this apartment also comes with a highly coveted deeded parking spot in the place where the school’s playground once stood. An exciting opportunity just moments from Brooklyn Bridge Park, local school, transportation, and wonderful restaurants and shopping on Court and Smith Streets.

Cobble Hill | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

The neighborhood now known as Cobble Hill was originally settled by Dutch farmers in the mid-1600s. Tucked along the East River, in the heart of Brooklyn, Cobble Hill is known for its welcoming, leafy streets, independent mom-and-pop shops, and 19th century brownstones.

Most of Cobble Hill lies within an historic landmark district, and building heights are restricted to 50 feet, which helps maintain its 19th century atmosphere. Building owners will often split the use of their four- or five-story buildings, occupying several of the top floors and renting out the ground floor as apartments or, conversely, occupying one or more of the lower floors and renting out the top floors. New construction and alterations to existing buildings in the historic district require approval by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission, which helps maintain the historic character of the Cobble Hill neighborhood.

Although most housing in Cobble Hill consists of traditional brownstones and brick townhouses,, you will also find churches that have been converted to condos, carriage houses that have become luxury apartments and Victorian school houses that have been converted into lofts.

Court Street and Atlantic Avenue are the main commercial streets in the neighborhood. You will find popular Middle Eastern restaurants on Atlantic Avenue. Court Street is home to casual restaurants, many with outdoor seating, relaxed cafes and hip bars.

Many young professionals and families live in the brownstones, townhouses, and single-family homes that line the leafy streets. Cobble Hill is a great place to live if you work on Wall Street, as you can walk over the Brooklyn Bridge to work.
