473 Clinton Ave, 3

This is the dreamiest loft style 1 bed/1 bath on a landmarked block of prime Clinton Hill that you may ever find. Tucked away on the top floor of a landmarked brownstone this sanctuary lets you sleep under the stars in Brooklyn, and watch cloudscapes pass overhead and through the east facing windows in the living room.

The heart of the home is its generous chef's kitchen with an expansive island and Carrerra marble counters. The powerful stainless steel hood vents out so you can high heat sear with abandon. The range, oven and dishwasher are Bosch, the refrigerator is Fisher Pykel and the combo washer/dryer is LG.

The bedroom has a wild amount of treats for you, 2 large skylights, an elegant open custom closet, space enough for a king bed if that is your desire, and a long walk in closet/storage space that runs the entire width of the apartment. Painted brick adds texture. It has frosted glass sliders to give privacy when you want it, or light bounce throughout your home from sunrise through sunset.

There is a lovely nook that makes for a sweet work/art making space. The unrealized treasure is that this unit comes with exclusive roof rights, so you can build your own deck/garden in the sky. A value add steeped in joy. Inquire for more information.

The bathroom also offfers marble floors as well as a full sized window making a small space feel more expansive with a lovely glow.

This unit has incredibly low carrying costs thanks to it being a self managed condo conversion. Central/heat and AC with a recently updated HVAC system on a Nest thermostat allow for great comfort at your control from anywhere you may be. The on demand water heater has also been recently replaced.

Transportation is a delight, the A/C at Clinton Washington is at the corner, and the G train is a mere 3 blocks away. The surrounding blocks are dripping with stunning architectural treasures, and shops and restaurants abound.

This is the one so many of us have fantasized about, a New York mirage of a condo in a history steeped building with the right balance of updates and charm without being too precious. Come see it before it shimmers away into someone else's realized dream.
