Property Description for 71 Wolcott Street, 206-A

This unique four-story building consisting of 60 units–just a half a block off of Van Brunt Street and a quick jaunt to Fairway, Valentino Park, Red Hook Tavern, Baked, Fort Defiance and Brooklyn Crab–is a rare opportunity to make your forever home in Red Hook, Brooklyn’s favorite sea-side town, for under a million dollars and sacrifice nothing. Come home to three sun-filled bedrooms, 1.5 baths, multiple exposures, off street parking, and great light all day long from South-facing windows. Just one flight up on the second floor, this mint condition home needs to be seen in-person to be truly appreciated. A unique and friendly coop that welcomes all to enjoy the amazing light, low density, and creative and artisanal vibes that distinguish this special neighborhood out from the crowd. With Manhattan a quick ferry, bike or bus ride away, the laid-back nature of this neighborhood also offers fresh air, public parks, great food, public and private schools, and the unusual opportunity to enjoy the perks of city life while also feeling like you are on a beach vacation. Built less than ten years ago, this home has been meticulously cared for and feels like new. Enter into a great room with incredible light all day from an entire wall of South-facing windows. A split layout offers three spacious South-facing bedrooms with one bedroom off the living room and then a separate wing with two more bedrooms, a bath and a half, and two extra deep storage closets for all of your needs. One of these closets can easily be made into a laundry room, or simply use one of the three conveniently located laundry rooms in the building (on the same floor as this unit) and keep your closets for extra storage. An efficient modern kitchen has been outfitted with stainless steel appliances, maple cabinetry, and a locally made composite Quartz countertop perfect for hot pots, and easy to keep clean. Convenient sleeves have been included in the facade so your AC units never have to be removed, and you don’t lose an inch of the amazing views and light out of your many windows. Sustainable and handsome Bamboo wood floors are in perfect condition, a true testament to the fact that they are one of the hardest woods available, promising years of longevity. Clean and bright bathrooms offer great storage with their floating maple vanities and relish in the classic design combination of white subway tile with glass accents. This pet-friendly building offers bike storage, a full-time super and management company, gated parking for just $90/month, and a community garden where residents can each have their own patch of land to grow vegetables and flowers. The B-61 bus stop is also right outside your door. Showings by appointment only.

Red Hook | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Filled with quaint charm and picturesque views, Red Hook is a haven for those seeking a laid-back vibe. The community has weathered many storms both figurative and literal since its settlement in 1836 by Dutch colonists. From being one of the most bustling freight ports in the world in the 1920s to being named one of the worst neighborhoods in America for its crack epidemic in the 1990s, Red Hook has gone through many evolutions to become the dynamic neighborhood it is today. 

Rich with creativity, the area is home to many artists specializing in an array of crafts, ranging from furniture design to glassblowing to woodworking. With many art galleries and moderately priced studios and lofts, the neighborhood is teeming with talent attracted by the energy and live/work space concept. 

The overall sense of being among a close-knit community is further spurred on by annual events such as the Red Hook Waterfront Arts Festival, as well as a reading series co-hosted by BookCourt once a month at neighborhood staple Sunny’s Bar. The changing shape and infrastructure of Red Hook was thrown for a loop in 2012, with the damaging effects of Hurricane Sandy that left many buildings and businesses in need of repair during resulting closures. 

Since its post-Sandy revitalization, the neighborhood has continued to attract many visitors to its unique and eclectic ambience, with ferries from Pier 11 in Manhattan to IKEA that operate daily.
