Property Description for 297 Driggs Ave, 8-B

Entering your sun-drenched penthouse through the key-locked elevator, the first thing you notice is the loft-style, open-flow living/dining room. The second thing you notice is the breathtaking view of the Manhattan skyline through dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows. The windowed kitchen features black granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, an abundance of storage space and a unique mobile island for design and space flexibility. The bedroom's oversized windows continue your view of the Manhattan skyline; and the windowed bath with deep-soaking Zuma tub offers a calming end to the busy day. Plenty of closet space and a washer/dryer complete this unique and beautiful home. If you're looking for outdoor space, Penthouse B comes with a front balcony, back shared terrace and a private roof deck. Measuring approximately 14'5" x 9'2", there's plenty of room for entertaining.

Manhattan Park is a boutique 14-unit condo with only two apartments per floor, low common charges and seven years remaining on the 421a tax abatement. Located at the corner of Williamsburg and Greenpoint, you are steps away from McCarren Park, seasonal Green Market and the G train at Nassau Ave, and a few blocks from the L train at Bedford Ave. Private parking is also available, sold separately.

Greenpoint | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Go north, not west. Greenpoint’s placement at the furthermost tip of Brooklyn makes it peak “North Brooklyn” territory. Bordered by the East River, its geographical location has long made Greenpoint integral to maritime activity, present day ferry service to Manhattan included. With Williamsburg to the south and Long Island City to the north, Greenpoint’s “hip factor” often experiences crossover traffic from these areas. 

Particularly bustling on the weekend, the edge of McCarren Park at Bedford Avenue and Lorimer Street filters out into prime Greenpoint, where brunch has become a hallowed tradition for newer and longtime residents alike. Bars and restaurants such as Spritzenhaus and Five Leaves also provide close proximity to a post-dining jaunt in the park. 

As the neighborhood continues to grow and develop, the old world feel of a tradition of Polish immigrants has commingled with the arrival of enterprising millennials that have become a part of the go-getting spirit of the neighborhood. Filled with small coffee shops, vintage boutiques and award-winning restaurants (as well as tailored bars like TØRST offering up specialty beers on tap), Greenpoint truly is the jewel of North Brooklyn.
