Property Description for 689 Myrtle Ave, 2-A
Open House by Appointment Only *with 24-hour notice*
OWNER RELOCATING OUT OF STATE!
Have you always dreamed of living in that picturesque NYC loft, with high ceilings, exposed ductwork, and tons of character and detail? Then this is the home you've been waiting for! The minute you walk through the front door of the apartment, you'll be floored by the scale: the loft spans 43', terminating with a wall of Eastern-facing 8' windows that flood the home with light. Looking up, you'll notice the 13' ceilings that give the space an expansive, yet inviting, feel. You'll also notice the large loft space, which is currently being used as a bedroom, with its 8' ceiling height and two closets. Just below the loft is a curtained-off 200 square foot storage area to tuck away all your knicks and knacks (and then some!) Add in the walk-in entry closet with adjustable Elfa shelving, and you'll never be short on storage space in this home!
While the apartment is loaded with original charm and detail (that gorgeous column!), it has also been brought into the 21st century with its own washer/dryer, stainless steel appliances in the open kitchen, and central A/C and heating, which can be controlled through your phone!
But the wonder doesn't end at the apartment. The green roof deck (the first built in Brooklyn) is what NYC fantasies are made of. It includes various lounge spaces for sitting with your morning coffee or relaxing after a hard day's work, and benches for sunset dinner parties with friends. And we'd be remiss to leave out the VIEWS: from 1 World Trade Center all the way up to the Empire State Building and beyond, you will be left in awe by the panoramic vistas! But wait, there's more: a glass-enclosed gym caps off the impressive rooftop, where you can take in those gorgeous views from the treadmills - you'll actually want to work out!
The Chocolate Factory was built in 1947 as -- you guessed it -- a chocolate factory and converted to 45 condos in 2003. Teetering the border between BedStuy and Clinton Hill, the location affords access to wonderful restaurants, cafes, shops, and Dough Donuts! With the G train at Myrtle-Willoughby only 2.5 blocks away, Citibikes 1 block away, and many bus routes nearby, you have tons of options for public transit.
The building is pet-friendly and features bike storage. Note: the monthly fees also include FiOS internet!
Buyer to pay $5,000 working capital contribution.

Quick Profile
Known for its historic brownstones and tight-knit enclave, Bed-Stuy has increasingly left behind its early reputation for being a “bedroom community” and transcended into a highly desirable neighborhood.
Distinct for its aesthetic, it is populated with ornate buildings characterized by cornices, friezes, finials, fluting and other marks of classic architecture. Built up during the period from 1870 to 1900, its historic district runs to the north of Jefferson Avenue, to the east of Malcolm X Boulevard and to the west of Tompkins Avenue.
At one point known as “Brooklyn’s Little Harlem,” the shape of the area has shifted toward attracting a wider demographic of people thanks to the influx of bars, restaurants, antique furniture stores and vintage boutiques. More police enforcement paired with the decline of the crack epidemic at the beginning of the 2000s also opened the door for increased development, as well as the occupation of formerly abandoned buildings and spaces.
