Enormous 2BR with extra room in prime Williamsburg Lorimer Enormous 1,200 sq ft, two-bedroom apartment with an extra home office is available for rent. The location cant be beat -- located just steps from the Lorimer stop on the L and G trains, in the heart of hip Williamsburg on a quiet, tree-lined street a few blocks from McCarren Park. The second floor apartment occupies an entire floor of a historic three-family, three-story owner-occupied property built in 1891. The owners purchased the building a few years ago and have restored the apartment to its original glory, with tons of original historic character, all new reliable heat, hot water and electric systems, and an upgraded kitchen and bathroom. HUGE ~1,200 sq ft of living space, including a loft-like living/dining room that alone has over 600 sq. ft., with two bedrooms *plus* an additional room you can use as an office, nursery or guest room. Historic character abounds with 10-high ceilings, a huge bay window, transom windows, original decorative moldings, and vintage lighting fixtures. The apartment features an amazing ceiling painting in the living room, painted by an Italian immigrant artist who lived in the building 100 years ago. It's basically the Sistine Chapel of Williamsburg right in your very own living room. The apartment is just steps from the L and G trains -- the door-to-door commute to Union Square is just seven minutes. While the L train closure will make that more difficult, thats not going to happen for another two years (construction is set to begin in 2019). Rent includes heat and hot water. No broker fee. Free bicycle parking in basement. Unlimited use of laundry facilities in basement for $40 monthly fee. No dogs or smokers please. The apartment is being offered for October 1st, but is available for immediate occupancy.
