Property Description for 220 Congress Street, 6-E

This oversized, top floor, corner one-bedroom apartment in the heart of historic Cobble Hill is like no other unit in the coop. 220 Congress Street #6E was gut-renovated and transformed into a stunning modern-industrial loft-like home with exposed beams, exposed brick, crown molding, wide-plank European white oak floors, and an open, airy feel, throughout. Gorgeous light radiates through the apartment all day long through oversized windows with northern and eastern exposure that offer wonderful views of the trees, the surrounding townhouses, and from the bedroom, the city skyline. The stylish open kitchen has abundant custom cabinetry and open shelving, subway tile, Caesarstone counters, a Koehler farmhouse sink, Bosch dishwasher, Fisher & Paykel fridge and a Kitchen Aid professional range. The large and inviting living area offers options for multiple configurations and provides plenty of space for dining or a home office. Custom closets, cabinetry and cubbies frame the entry and provide convenient and discreet storage. Cleverly designed, the large bedroom (with two exposures) can open onto the living room or, for more privacy, the custom wardrobe doubles as a sliding door, separating the spaces. The charming exposed brick flows from room to room, painted white in the living space and left unpainted in the bedroom. The windowed bathroom, also smartly renovated, has a large tub, subway tile, glass tile floor, and a pedestal sink. Soundproofing was added under the floors to ensure quiet. No detail was overlooked in this spectacular renovation. Located in a pristinely maintained elevator building, the coop has great financials, a live-in super, and central laundry. There is a lovely common back yard patio with tables and chairs and a small garden for residents to enjoy. Bike storage is available for a nominal fee. There is basement storage and parking, both currently wait-listed. Located one block from the F train at Bergen, a few blocks from the R, 2/3 and 4/5 trains at Borough Hall, and two blocks from Trader Joe's, surrounded by great restaurants and boutiques, and a half block from lovely, historic Cobble Hill Park, the location can't be beat. Pet-friendly too!

Cobble Hill | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

The neighborhood now known as Cobble Hill was originally settled by Dutch farmers in the mid-1600s. Tucked along the East River, in the heart of Brooklyn, Cobble Hill is known for its welcoming, leafy streets, independent mom-and-pop shops, and 19th century brownstones.

Most of Cobble Hill lies within an historic landmark district, and building heights are restricted to 50 feet, which helps maintain its 19th century atmosphere. Building owners will often split the use of their four- or five-story buildings, occupying several of the top floors and renting out the ground floor as apartments or, conversely, occupying one or more of the lower floors and renting out the top floors. New construction and alterations to existing buildings in the historic district require approval by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission, which helps maintain the historic character of the Cobble Hill neighborhood.

Although most housing in Cobble Hill consists of traditional brownstones and brick townhouses,, you will also find churches that have been converted to condos, carriage houses that have become luxury apartments and Victorian school houses that have been converted into lofts.

Court Street and Atlantic Avenue are the main commercial streets in the neighborhood. You will find popular Middle Eastern restaurants on Atlantic Avenue. Court Street is home to casual restaurants, many with outdoor seating, relaxed cafes and hip bars.

Many young professionals and families live in the brownstones, townhouses, and single-family homes that line the leafy streets. Cobble Hill is a great place to live if you work on Wall Street, as you can walk over the Brooklyn Bridge to work.
