535 Dean Street, 516

NOW TAKING APPTS FOR JUNE 22 AND ON - please email. Welcome to #516 at 535 Dean Street, an airy, architect-renovated loft in the best part of Prospect Heights. A 2018 remodeling project has produced a beautiful home full of custom touches and incredible storage, while preserving the 12-foot ceilings and enormous windows of the original factory space. The apartment is currently used as a 2-bed, 1-bath apartment. Upon entering the home, you are greeted with a sunlit space, while standing in a wide entryway with its own spacious hall closet, perfect for coats, out-of-season storage, and all your quarantine backstock. A custom walnut-topped bench and walnut open shelving create a warm landing zone. As you walk further into the home, the five-foot wide hallway leaves plenty of room for displaying art or a home library. The classic, bright white subway tile bath is to your left. A large open kitchen is the perfect chef’s space, with butcher block counters, custom cabinetry and open shelving galore, and plenty of drawers topped with brass pulls from Schoolhouse Electric. The kitchen also features Meile hood and range as well as dishwasher, pure white subway tile, and an oversized island with electrical outlets is perfect for additional prep and storage space. A wine fridge will also fit under the island. The great room is graced with a wall of large windows, and includes plenty of space for lounging, dining, and a home office. Custom cabinetry line the living room windows, and the space permits numerous configurations for your living room and dining room furniture. The current setup also features a home office nook, but the area could easily be closed off as a 3rd bedroom if necessary, while still leaving plenty of room for entertaining. The master bedroom is a quiet retreat, separated from the common areas by two custom doors. It also boasts an entire wall of custom storage with walnut doors, as well as an additional garage-like closet. The second bedroom is similarly sized and bright with natural light all day long. Its bespoke window seat and lofted “hideaway” above the custom Elfa closet encourage daydreaming in residents of all ages. If this isn’t enough, the home also counts refinished maple hardwood floors, designer mid-century lighting, modern ceiling fans, and a W/D hookup among its many assets. The Newswalk is a rare full-service building in Prospect Heights, with some of the most incredible outdoor spaces around. A sprawling rooftop features a full playground, outdoor kitchen with grills, and plenty of space to roam and lounge while social distancing. If you prefer to be on the ground, a professionally landscaped front garden provides you a park-like experience without ever leaving the building’s front gate. The basement includes a gym, a large and well-kept laundry room (only used by select floors in the building - it’s almost always empty), and access to a parking garage operated by a 3rd party. A full-time super, 3 full-time doormen, 2 weekend doormen, and 3 porters keep the condo well maintained. The Newswalk is at the nexus of the wonderful Brooklyn neighborhoods of Prospect Heights, Fort Greene, and Park Slope. It features easy access to numerous transportation links and all the cultural and retail amenities that Brooklyn offers, including BAM, The Center for Fiction, as well as beloved restaurant favorites such as the Brooklyn Larder, Doughnut Plant, James, Olmsted, and Ample Hills.
