Featuring all the charming features of a brownstone soaring apprx. 10ft ceilings, expansive bay windows, north and south exposures and spacious living and sleeping areas, this renovated one bedroom is truly a dream.
A renovated open kitchen is finished with an all-white palette of white-lacquered cabinetry and subtly marbleized quartz stone countertop. Fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, it includes a Samsung Microwave, Haier french-doors refrigerator, and range hood that vents out. Luxuriously fitted with a Grohe faucet.
The modern bath is wrapped in white tiles and gray flooring, sleek white vanity, delta showerhead and subtle gold fixtures.
A floor-through unit, this sprawling layout features an open living space, designed for dining and entertaining, on one end and a massive bedroom, easily able to accommodate a king size bed, armoire, dresser, desk and other furnishings on the other.
On the much-coveted brownstone row between Frederick Douglass and Adam Clayton Powell Jr Blvd, this home strikes the perfect balance between a peaceful residence and convenience. Just a block and half away from the B & C trains and two blocks from the 2 & 3, Midtown is minutes away. Restaurants and shops are all within walking distance.
Utilities include the heat, water and cooking gas, further minimizing other monthly costs in comparison to similarly renovated units on the market.
No laundry in unit/building, but laundromats nearby for easy pick-up and drop-off services.
