The thoughtful kitchen design seamlessly blends modern convenience with classical textures and fixtures and features white Shaker style cabinets equipped with black matte pulls, Ceasarstone counter tops, and a Carrara white marble herringbone backsplash. Punctuating the attractive design palette is a top-of-the-line appliance package that includes a Bertazzoni 5- burner cooktop and oven, Bertazzoni over the range microwave, Haier refrigerator & a Bosch dishwasher. The bathroom was recently redecorated with a neutral palette, including subway tiles, a traditional style grey dove colored vanity, and black matte fixtures. For those who love the outdoors, search no more, just below is your very own 800 square foot garden, which is ready for a green thumb enthusiast to work their magic.

 

Unit 2 is a recently updated 1,200 square foot floor through 4 bedroom + 1 home office and 2 bathroom apartment. Spacious and airy, this unit features a private balcony, high ceilings, exposed brick, and multiple skylights throughout. The updated, open kitchen makes cooking prep enjoyable whilst entertaining. The layout, space and light along with the convenience of the updated 2 bathrooms make this a sweet move-in ready apartment.

Set nicely back from the street you can indulge in landscaping both your front and back yards and also enjoy extra privacy. And don't miss the incredibly low taxes of only $2,946.32 per YEAR (per month that's just $245.53)!

Bushwick | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

As one of the most diverse neighborhoods in New York, Bushwick offers a perfect snapshot of just how multicultural the city is. Long-established as an amalgam of cultures and ethnicities, a wave of varying types of immigrants trickled in from the seventeenth to twentieth centuries, with Bushwick largely becoming a home to Hispanics of Puerto Rican and Dominican backgrounds by the latter part of the twentieth century. 

With the Bushwick Initiative of the mid-00s that aided in revitalization, it became an attractive area to young professionals and artists. And even now, Bushwick has sustained affordable rent prices where other North Brooklyn counterparts, like Williamsburg and Greenpoint, have become more expensive. Priding itself on the weird and the wacky, numerous art collectives thrive in this part of Brooklyn, once famously named the seventh coolest neighborhood in the world by Vogue. 

Though it has drawn in many tourists in recent years (there’s even a graffiti tour you can take from the Bushwick Collective), the neighborhood remains very much community-oriented, and has not been subject to quite the same sort of corporate infiltration phenomenon of its nearby Williamsburg environs. 

But yes, of course, Bushwick has come a very long way from its 80s and 90s reputation as being “The Well,” a nickname given to it for its free-flowing and widely available amount of drugs (quantity over quality being the cliche applied here).
