Property Description for 262 Bond Street, 2

Eco-friendly duplex loft condo with private courtyard, roof deck, central air in Gowanus. The ideal space for art lovers with long brick walls to hang your paintings and a patio for your sculptures.

A beautiful steel cladded exterior sets the scene for this genuine loft in a former electrical warehouse at 262 Bond Street in Gowanus. The sprawling 2,008 square-foot duplex is arrayed around a central double-height courtyard and steel stairs that lead to a large private roof deck. In a nod to its industrial past, there is exposed brick throughout.

It is currently configured as a 2-bedroom with 2.5 baths. But it would easily be remodeled into a 3-bedroom.

The building was one of the first in Brooklyn to be certified LEED, so the apartment is environmentally friendly and has very low utility bills coupled with high efficiency HVAC and heating systems. What's more, both outdoor spaces have electric, gas, and water lines for entertaining, and the roof deck's custom planters are irrigated.

The first floor opens onto a large living and dining area with large windows overlooking the courtyard. The large modern galley kitchen has subway tile, stainless steel appliances, two ovens, Cambria solid surface countertops and a built-in 56-bottle wine refrigerator. There is also storage, a half bath, and a full-sized washer/dryer on this level.

Upstairs is a massive master bedroom suite configured around huge windows and skylights. There are two full baths, one of which is equipped with a Jacuzzi tub, the other with a walk-in marble shower. The skylights are equipped with solar and blackout shades for deep and restful sleep.

The 825-square-foot roof deck is set up for entertaining and has a concealed shed for furniture and gardening equipment.

The two-unit building is near the intersection of Boerum Hill, Carroll Gardens and Cobble Hill. Nearby are the D&D pool, several parks, the Cobble Hill Cinemas, the Royal Palm Shuffle Board Club and Ample Hills Creamery.

Boerum Hill | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Boerum Hill is a tiny, quiet, primarily residential neighborhood in Brooklyn. There are broad tree-lined streets that are filled with elegant three and four-story brownstones and townhouses, mostly built between 1840 and 1870. There is a definite family vibe to the neighborhood, but young professionals are moving in, and with them are coming trendy bars to cater to their desire for some measure of nightlife, without having to linger in Manhattan. These new bars and restaurants are being sandwiched in amongst existing shops on both Atlantic Avenue and Smith Street, which are the main commercial areas in Boerum Hill. 

Boerum Hill offers a convenient location that is still able to maintain its small-neighborhood feel. Shopkeepers value their customers and remember their regulars. It continues to do what it was designed to do, namely provide small-town living in the very shadow of the big city. Boerum Hill is an easy commute to other parts of the city, making it easy to come home every day to the peace and tranquility of Boerum Hill while commuting to a job anywhere in the city.

The neighborhood is quite walkable and you can take the time to catch up with your neighbors while visiting on their stoops. Shopping on Atlantic Avenue is stress-free with no high pressure. You can meet with friends at any of the many coffee shops and while away pleasant hours in conversation. The dining scene on Smith Street is similarly laid-back. Don’t expect that there will be quite as much to see or do as there is in Manhattan, but there are a decent number of interesting bars and restaurants providing a measure of nightlife. The trade-off is worth it, as Boerum Hill provides a quiet, peaceful place to live and raise a family.
