Property Description for 555 Washington Ave, 2-E

Hidden inside this spectacular Gothic cathedral is an architect-designed, 1.5 bedroom duplex loft with four distinct living spaces, 15' tall ceilings, a beautifully renovated kitchen, enormous bright windows, and so much more.
One enters this second floor apartment from the beautiful landscaped common courtyard and immediately is swept away by its grand dimensions and unique layout. This isn't New York anymore. The living room features original terrazzo floors, massive wooden restored French doors and transom, and 15' high custom bookshelves and cabinetry. Beyond, you have a stunning modern white kitchen featuring quartzite countertops, top-of-the-line appliances, custom designed lighting and a separate dining area which comfortably seats six! The upper level features a huge walk-in closet with plumbing (use your imagination!), and last but not least, in the back is an additional full bedroom that takes advantage of its full ceiling height with a picture window facing the century-old trees of Washington Avenue.
Renovated and reconfigured to provide maximum light, versatility and quality of life, this condo is a dream come true. Incredibly low maintenance, an indoor parking spot (rented from the building next door for an astonishingly low $187/month), easy access to a beautiful common courtyard, elevator, part-time doorman, live-in super, bike storage, and a W/D on the floor. The "C" Clinton/Washington subway stop is half a block away and you are 15-20 minutes from Manhattan and within minutes of the best restaurants, cafes, and shopping of Clinton Hill, Fort Greene, Prospect Heights!
Current Assessment of $450 in place, scheduled to finish in August 2016.

Clinton Hill | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Tucked behind the Brooklyn Navy Yard in central Brooklyn is the quiet residential neighborhood of Clinton Hill. Once a strictly working-class neighborhood, Clinton Hill has become known for its elegant brownstones and stately mansions that were built as Manhattanites crossed the East River in the 1920s in search of the supposed health benefits that came from living “on the hill,” which has an elevation of 95 feet. Now you will also find newer luxury apartment and condo buildings interspersed throughout the neighborhood.

The Pratt Institute and St. Joseph College give the area a certain energy that comes from having a college in your town, while it’s leafy streets, some with their original cobblestones, and slower pace attract young families. Millennials and professionals are flocking to Clinton Hill in search of a reasonably priced neighborhood that offers both nightlife and an easy commute to Manhattan. Clinton Hill is a beautiful neighborhood with a suburban feel and firm roots in its past that also offers plenty of urban amenities.

New businesses are showing up in Clinton Hill on a regular basis, adding to the current proliferation of coffee shops, restaurants, and bars. As the population changes, new entertainment and nightlife venues are migrating to the area to meet the demand. Barclays Center is within easy walking distance, offering exciting sporting events and concerts.
