Property Description for 143 Bergen Street, 2-FLR

Boerum Hill Beauty! 2BR 2BA Condo on Bergen St. on a Prime Tree-Lined Block

Own a beautiful, bright piece of Boerum Hill in this two-bedroom, two-bath pre-war condominium at 143 Bergen Street. Located on the second floor (just one flight up from the stoop) of a Federalist style townhouse, this spacious and practical pre-war home offers an appealing mix of classic elegance and modern flair, all nestled on a landmarked block within the Boerum Hill Historic (listed on the National Register of Historic Places) between Hoyt and Bond. Spread out while you entertain your guests throughout the open-plan living, kitchen, and dining room layout. Or cozy up near your original wood-burning fireplace, sure to keep your wintry nights warm and toasty. With three large double-hung windows facing south, your entire living area is bathed in sunlight from dawn to dusk. The alcove in the third bay, currently used as a dining room, can also easily convert to a home office or even a third bedroom, offering ultimate flexibility if your needs change over time. The open chef’s kitchen features an island with an expandable countertop, allowing for extra workspace and casual everyday kitchen-table dining.Your suite of top-notch stainless steel appliances includes an oversized Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a Viking stove, microwave, and dishwasher set. You’ll enjoy abundant storage for all your cooking gear, with deep cabinets throughout the room and a pantry adjoining the refrigerator. And kiss the drop-and-fold goodbye: this home comes with your very own washer and dryer in the apartment, housed in a utility closet next to the pantry. Nearby you’ll find a video intercom system in the hall. Your large, bright primary bedroom also features a large double closet with built-in shelving, storage above, and a separate, custom built-in wardrobe. A small private balcony, accessible from the primary bedroom and overlooking the quiet, verdant rear gardens of the adjacent Boerum Hill rowhouses gives you a spot to work out your green thumb. The primary bedroom is finished with an en suite full bath. The secondary / guest bedroom, also in the rear of the apartment facing north, is spacious enough for a queen bed, bunk beds, or a home office setup. With a double closet, it also features plenty of storage space. Off the hall is the guest bath, also decked out in a timeless marble tile finish, with a walk-in shower and built-in shelving for linens. Each room is equipped with split-system air conditioning, allowing you to regulate temperatures to your tastes in each room separately. Throughout this home, you’ll find the accents and features that give pre-war homes their timeless appeal: hardwood oak strip floors, crown molding, high ceilings, and deep window sills. All this in a condominium, making your approval process painless and speedy. Pets are allowed, and the condominium is fully approved by multiple major lenders, ready to make financing a breeze. This central location in Boerum Hill offers speedy access to multiple subway lines including the F, G, 2, 3, 4, 5, A, and C, with multiple other letters of the alphabet just a short walk away at Atlantic Terminal. With the “restaurant row” of Brooklyn just a block away on Smith Street, dining, delivery and retail options abound. Email us today for a private tour, with all the necessary COVID precautions. You’ll be well on your way to enjoying modern luxury in historic refinement.

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.
