Property Description for 237 Bergen Street, 1

This comfortable two-bedroom, one-and-a-half bath duplex consists of the parlor floor and garden level, and has exclusive use of the garden and deck. Enter the apartment via the main hallway at the top of the stoop or use the private entrance below. Pets are permitted on approval. The grand parlor floor is an open layout for the living/dining and kitchen with high ceilings flanked by full height windows in the front. French doors in the back open onto a substantial wooden deck with stairs leading down to a full garden. In spring, the magnolia tree steals the show, but many perennials will follow. The kitchen, with a large breakfast bar, is primed to receive a new dishwasher and refrigerator. A powder room is located on this level, with the full bath on the bedroom floor. Two large bedrooms occupy the front and back of the garden level. The back bedroom leads directly to the garden through a glass door. The front bedroom has exposed beams and benefits from a southern exposure. Both rooms offer an abundance of closet space, but there is also a deep linen closet and another large storage closet in the hall near the bath. Access to the unfinished basement can be reached from here, where you will find the washer and dryer located next to a utility sink. The tenants of this apartment are permitted to use the basement for storage. Conveniently located on a beautiful tree-lined street in Boerum Hill, near practically all subway lines as well as the LIRR. Shopping options couldn’t be better with an enchanting blend of local boutiques as well as some larger chain stores, restaurants and cafes. Among the myriad of culinary options are top-rated Japanese and Italian restaurants on both cross streets. * the refrigerator is virtually staged to show a newer model similar to the one that will replace the existing unit.

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.
