62 Montague Street, 5-A

Elegance, space, and original detail all come together in this beautiful two-bedroom home in The Arlington, one of Brooklyn Heights’ most coveted addresses. Designed in 1887 by renowned Brooklyn architect Montrose Morris, and both a NYC Landmark and in the National Register of Historic Places, this 10-story elevator building is full of old-world charm and perfectly situated by the Promenade on the quiet residential end of Montague Street. This classic gem offers light and views, with the dramatic bay windows in the rounded living room looking out onto Lower Manhattan’s skyline and the nearby Promenade gardens. In addition to hardwood floors, detailed woodwork, tin ceilings and crown molding throughout the apartment, the living room has a lovely, tiled wood-burning fireplace. The second bedroom/flexible space is just adjacent and accessible both through original pocket doors and from the distinctive hallway, which runs almost the full length of the apartment. Both the second bedroom and master bedroom are serene and welcoming. The large windowed kitchen has been modernized with tasteful glass-faced cabinets offering lots of storage, stainless-steel appliances, and stacked washer/dryer. The windowed bathroom is a study in white, with wainscoting and period tiles and fixtures. The cooperative has a common roof deck with stunning harbor views. Iconic 62 Montague Street is pet friendly, has a live-in super, private storage, bike room and is in easy reach of multiple subway lines (2, 3, 4, 5, A, C, F, R), and the neighborhood’s green spaces and tony shops and eateries.
