19 Fiske Place, A-4

Be the envy of your friends in this one bedroom, one bath apartment ideally situated on a prime block between serene Prospect Park West and the conveniences of Seventh Avenue. Fiske Place is a rare, sweet and subdued residential Brooklyn block running north & south between brownstone laden tree lined streets in prime Park Slope. This home is well over 500 square feet and boasts a kitchen outfitted with illuminated frosted glass cabinets, Caesar stone counters, glass tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances and built-in storage - including a 24-hook ceiling pot rack. Open to the living room, with firm Canadian Maple floors throughout, you can enjoy the feel of a contemporary condo with high ceiling heights, consistent with a quaint pre-war building like 19 Fiske Place. The refinished bathroom features opaque aqua tiles, a Japanese style toilet with bidet functionality, and a glass enclosed stall shower with overhead, and horizontal, spigots. The bedroom has two exposures; the apartment is extremely quiet, facing east and north away from an already low traffic street. Included with the sale are the kitchen island, living room book shelf, and the bedroom closet, all free standing items with a customized appearance which marchent bien with the personality of the apartment. You would be hard-pressed to find a finer co-op with more stellar financials. Since the refinance in 2013 of a modest $600,000 underlying mortgage (4% fixed rate), the building is its third straight year with no maintenance increases. Look for that to continue since they secured a 100,000 dollar line of credit with the refinance. For a small co-op, with low monthlies, there are lots of amenities. The basement has an optional bin for each resident ($15 per month) and a bicycle room. The building created two stunning outdoor spaces, the rear grotto provides entertaining space on the ground level while the roof deck, which is even more impressive and noteworthy, has views all the way to Manhattan, New York Harbor, and beyond. This building maintains low costs and high reserves since there is no doorman or elevator. The building does have a porter, a managing agent, and allows pets. Some residents are very involved in the daily upkeep of the building, including organizing the annual lobby holiday party. Owner is relocating and looking for a relatively swift closing.
