The spacious living room has beautiful windows with original leaded glass upper panes which look out over the treetops of Montague Street and bring in soft light throughout the day. A white brick wall provides the canvas for the WOODBURNING FIREPLACE. With soapstone firebrick and a modern wood mantel the fireplace makes a lovely focal point for the living room.
There's plenty of space for a dining table between the living room and the gorgeous kitchen. Custom white upper cabinetry and walnut lower cabinetry are the epitome of both form and function. Caesarstone "marble" counters and a white tile backsplash keep the windowed kitchen feeling airy and bright. A suite of Bosch stainless steel appliances, including an oven and cooktop, and cement-look ceramic floor tile balance the color palette of this sleek kitchen.
Down the hall, nicely separated from the living space with a discreet pocket door, are the two bedrooms and the bathroom. With 9-foot ceilings and 8-foot doors, the hallway leading to the bedrooms feels grand. Two large closets provide great storage space, while the third houses the stacked washer/dryer. Past the pocket door, a media closet also functions as a small home office.
The primary bedroom is well-proportioned with a wall of built-in custom closets, complete with hanging rods and drawers. The second bedroom is quiet and serene with its own sizable closet. The modern bathroom features Duravit, Toto and Kohler fixtures, a deep soaking tub, a white oak floating vanity, and white hex wall tile. The bathroom is as stylish as the rest of the home.
Throughout the apartment you'll find wide-plank wood flooring, custom light fixtures, 9-foot ceilings and great closet space.

Quick Profile
Brooklyn Heights was Manhattan’s first suburb. The Brooklyn Bridge is a neighborhood draw, offering some of the most beautiful views of the Manhattan skyline, as well as an easily walkable means of commuting into the City. Montague Street has been the main commercial street in Brooklyn Heights since the 1800s, but it is not overly commercialized. Smaller shops help maintain the small neighborhood feel of Brooklyn Heights.
The quaint cobblestoned side streets highlight the historic feel to this lovely, vibrant neighborhood that is filled with exciting and innovative restaurants, stores that have those perfect home decor items, that little black dress you love, and your favorite dry cleaner is right around the corner. Brooklyn Heights is your perfect city within the City.
There are apartments, condos, and co-ops that resulted from the conversion of pre-war residential hotels. The townhouses in Brooklyn Heights are often five stories, instead of the three stories found elsewhere. You’ll also find row houses and stunning single family mansions. Due to the three protected historic districts, opportunities for new construction are limited, and the appearance of the neighborhood seems frozen in the era when these buildings were originally constructed.
Renowned public and private schools make the neighborhood attractive to young families with school-age children. The neighborhood is generally “kid-friendly,” with parks, playgrounds, and quiet streets where kids can still play safely.
