    What's special

    Immaculate BK Heights One Bedroom - walk up only one flight! Nestled within one of Brooklyn Heights' most prized brownstones and set along one of its most picturesque blocks, this remarkable one-bedroom residence seamlessly blends historic charm with modern functionality. The home welcomes you with a gracious foyer large enough to serve as a dedicated office, while a thoughtfully designed open-concept kitchen-featuring classically inspired hardware and elegant marble countertops-anchors the living space. Three generous walk-in closets provide exceptional storage, and every corner is enriched with period details that create a home both timeless and effortlessly refined. Original architectural details abound-from the elegant working fireplace and intricate wood moldings to the solid wood doors, classic window shutters, stained-glass accents, and a graceful bay window. Brass door and kitchen hardware, richly toned hardwood floors, and soaring 12-foot ceilings further enhance the sense of warmth and character rarely found today. The bathroom has undergone a complete gut renovation and has been impeccably restored to honor historic design while incorporating modern comforts, resulting in a space that feels both enduring and thoughtfully refreshed. For added convenience, the home also features a coveted IN-UNIT WASHER DRYER--a rare luxury in a historic brownstone. The intimate building itself is rich with historic character, from its beautifully preserved facade to its ornate hallway and graceful staircase. Residents enjoy a private, dedicated storage locker for this unit, as well as access to a stunning 300-square-foot shared roof deck offering sweeping, bird's-eye views of New York Harbor, the Manhattan skyline, and the Statue of Liberty. Set just steps from the iconic Brooklyn Heights Promenade, 40 Remsen Street offers immediate access to the waterfront lawns, scenic piers, and recreational amenities of Brooklyn Bridge Park, creating an unusually tranquil pocket of the city. The surrounding blocks are filled with beloved neighborhood staples-from Joe Coffee and L'Appartement 4F to celebrated dining along Montague Street and Atlantic Avenue-and specialty grocers like Sahadi's and the impeccably curated Brooklyn Heights Wine Bar & Market. Residents enjoy effortless proximity to the 2/3, A/C, R, and 4/5 subway lines, ensuring swift travel throughout Brooklyn and seamless access to every corner of Manhattan. With leafy streets, landmark architecture, and an unparalleled blend of charm and urban convenience, this enclave remains one of New York's most coveted places to call home.
