Property Description for 70 Remsen Street, 4-HI

Waking up each morning in this spacious 2 bedroom, 2 bath coop is always a pleasure. With the master bedroom situated at the rear of the building, and overlooking a quiet laneway, lined with low rise carriage houses and mature trees, you'll first hear the delightful sounds of native birds courting each other as the sun rises and streams into your south-facing windows. Passing your adjoining and tastefully renovated bathroom via the short hallway to your open plan living room and kitchen, you'll notice that light is abundant throughout your home. With two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, and at opposing ends of the apartment, you'll find ample room for privacy, whether your needs run towards a home office, a guest room, or a dedicated second bedroom. And with the kitchen centrally located, you are never too far from the action. Featuring a large island, granite counters and top of the line stainless steel appliances, you'll find creating meals a pleasure, and with everything from Trader Joes and Key Foods, Sahadi’s, Fish Tales, Dellapietras and the Farmer's Market at Borough Hall all close to hand, the perfect ingredient is within easy reach. And if pizza is your thing, you really are spoiled for choice here. In a neighborhood renowned for its history and architecture, 70 Remsen Street remains a standout. Though a relative newcomer, having been originally built as a hotel back in 1928, The Remsen is notable for its arched Romanesque facade, as much as for its attentive, full-service staff. Upon entering the revolving door to the lobby you'll begin to understand what makes residents want to stay. The staff is on hand 24/7. Whether you are off to work or looking for adventure, this is a home that delivers. Subway access is exceptional, with Borough Hall and its many lines close to hand, or walk/bike over the Brooklyn Bridge into Manhattan for work or leisure. And if recreation is the order of the day, you have Brooklyn Bridge Park just beyond the gorgeous Promenade. Make the most of the early mornings and beat the crowds. Wander through the landscaped gardens or simply take in the view from a well-placed park bench. You can watch the city come to life as ferries crisscross the East River or recline on a patch of grass to watch the clouds pass by overhead. You'll know the right home when you see it. Just make sure you see this one before anyone else. The Remsen is pet friendly, has bike storage, communal laundry, full-time super and maintenance includes electricity.

Brooklyn Heights | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Brooklyn Heights was Manhattan’s first suburb. The Brooklyn Bridge is a neighborhood draw, offering some of the most beautiful views of the Manhattan skyline, as well as an easily walkable means of commuting into the City. Montague Street has been the main commercial street in Brooklyn Heights since the 1800s, but it is not overly commercialized. Smaller shops help maintain the small neighborhood feel of Brooklyn Heights.

The quaint cobblestoned side streets highlight the historic feel to this lovely, vibrant neighborhood that is filled with exciting and innovative restaurants, stores that have those perfect home decor items, that little black dress you love, and your favorite dry cleaner is right around the corner. Brooklyn Heights is your perfect city within the City.

There are apartments, condos, and co-ops that resulted from the conversion of pre-war residential hotels. The townhouses in Brooklyn Heights are often five stories, instead of the three stories found elsewhere. You’ll also find row houses and stunning single family mansions. Due to the three protected historic districts, opportunities for new construction are limited, and the appearance of the neighborhood seems frozen in the era when these buildings were originally constructed.

Renowned public and private schools make the neighborhood attractive to young families with school-age children. The neighborhood is generally “kid-friendly,” with parks, playgrounds, and quiet streets where kids can still play safely.
