Property Description for 138 Broadway, 5-G

OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED FOR SUNDAY OCTOBER 26TH!

Smith Grey's 5G is back and more beautiful than ever!

5G is a nearly 1800 SF, three-bedroom, two-bathroom condo, with almost 10' high ceilings and private balcony. This unit is spectacular in every way. Unlike other apartments in this line, 5G's kitchen, living, dining and entry areas have been opened up to create a breathtaking, true open loft space.

Enter through the proper foyer into the gallery and be dazzled by reclaimed, triple-bleached and stained, yellow pine floors that were milled from salvaged beams at The Belleview Biltmore Hotel in Bellair, FL, built in 1897. Seven west-facing windows in the vast open living, dining and kitchen area allow light to pour in all afternoon and through sunset. This enormous open room just begs for dinner parties and evenings with friends and loved ones. A built-in (retractable) ceiling movie/projector screen makes your living area the ideal screening room, along with built-in speakers throughout. Bring the largest dining table you can, because you'll have plenty of space for it. The kitchen is open and beautifully appointed with white cabinets and butcher block countertops along with a Bertazzoni stove, Miele dishwasher and two, low-profile refrigerators and a freezer.

The primary bedroom suite is something to behold. With an oversized window and glassed door leading to your perfect Parisian balcony, sun shines in from the east every morning. With room for all of your bedroom furniture and a king-sized bed, along with a substantial custom walk-in closet and another very large closet, you may find it hard to leave your sanctuary. The en suite and gut renovated primary bathroom features poured concrete floors, a most delightful claw foot tub tucked by the window, a glassed-in shower stall with rain shower head, and a very sizable dual-sink vanity. Also facing east, and just as bright and airy, are the 2 well-proportioned, secondary bedrooms. A barn door separates the two, offering up many useful living options. A cleanly renovated full bathroom is just outside the doors.

A large utility closet includes your own Bosch stacked washer & dryer; Bosch tankless water heater and boiler along with abundant storage space. This gorgeous unit also has a Nest system for your Central Air and Heating; overhead stainless steel ceiling fans and an exposed and painted brick wall.

Converted to condos in 2002, the sought-after Smith Grey building is one of the original warehouse conversions that started it all in Williamsburg. It features laundry on every floor, a great common courtyard and one of the best shared roof decks in the area, as well as bike storage in the basement, a video intercom system and a wonderful Super and Porter. The J,M,Z trains are a few short steps up Broadway with direct access to midtown or downtown Manhattan. The Schaefer Landing East River Ferry is a few-minute walk away. Live in the epicenter of all that South Williamsburg has to offer with some of the best restaurants and watering holes in Brooklyn.

Williamsburg | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Equal parts family-friendly and millennial haven/nightlife destination, Williamsburg offers the best of all worlds. Whether by night or by day, the ‘Burg has endless options for every type of personality and interest--which has only increasingly become the case after the neighborhood was rezoned in 2005. With the floodgate opened for more varied types of businesses, Williamsburg saw one of the highest rates of development in the past decade than any other part of Brooklyn. 

Referred to as “Little Berlin” for its late night and club-oriented nature, Williamsburg works as hard as it plays. Apart from the Clubland concentrated around Wythe Avenue, there is also a slew of offices (like 25 Kent Avenue, a sprawling eight-floor, 500,000-square foot waterfront building) and co-working spaces such as WeWork, The Yard and Green Desk that make it an ideal location for the corporate-, startup- and tech-oriented set. 

With more offices setting their sights on this part of Brooklyn, it only makes sense that more people want to live close to where they work. Apart from your average walk-up apartment, W-burg has famously become home to numerous condos along the waterfront that continue to grow and expand in concert with the businesses and corporate hubs that have entered the environment. 

Even with its many and undeniable changes, however, Williamsburg remains an arts-friendly community, particularly with regard to music and literature. While DIY spaces have come and gone, certain staples have persisted to become institutions that still provide a place for up and coming musicians to perform. On the literary front, long-standing indie bookstores like Spoonbill and Sugartown and Book Thug Nation have paved the way for others to cross the river, namely McNally Jackson Books.
