What's special
Welcome to Apartment 6K, an exceptionally spacious and airy top-floor oasis blending pre-war charm with a contemporary and thoughtful top-to-bottom renovation.
Generously proportioned and bathed in natural light with unobstructed views of Manhattan, this peaceful corner one-bedroom sanctuary features a separate, fully-enclosed home/office with stylish French doors that could easily function as a guest room or nursery. An impeccably designed open-concept kitchen and spa bath exemplify a modern ideal in luxury, practicality, and beauty. The residence offers approximately 965 SF of living space; measurements are subject to verification.
New bespoke renovations include an open-concept chef’s kitchen with updated appliances, including Fisher & Paykel refrigerator with subzero, an under-counter Sharp microwave, a panel-ready Blomberg dishwasher, a five-burner Frigidaire gas range with self-cleaning oven, under-counter LED lighting and pendant lights, a breakfast bar, custom flat paneled cabinetry, and a plethora of storage throughout the apartment.
A fully enclosed home office/guest room with French doors and a ceiling fan has also been added to the apartment’s original plan. The beautifully renovated windowed bath features floor-to-ceiling tiles, a 16" cast iron tub with glass shower door, LED touch-lit vanity, sleek new fixtures, and a linen closet. Generous storage options include a large coat closet in the entryway, an oversized walk-in closet in the back hall, two built-in closets with shelving just outside the home office, a linen closet in the bath, and two large closets in the bedroom, fully outfitted with the Elfa System and a charming original built-in bookcase off the living room.
Other notable features include high ceilings, new four-inch white oak plank flooring, modern ceiling fans in every room, recessed lighting, and an expanded electrical panel with additional outlets added throughout the apartment.
Built in 1941, the building maintains its pre-war charm, including a beautiful lobby with original terrazzo floors, two elevators, and wide interior staircases between floors. A new video intercom has been installed at the building’s front door, solar panels have been installed on the roof, there is laundry in the building, bike storage is available, storage cages are waitlisted, and a new playroom has been added for residents’ enjoyment.
811 Cortelyou is a superbly maintained cooperative community with an on-site super and porter. Pets are allowed on a case-by-case basis. Cortelyou Road is the hub of Ditmas Park’s retail, restaurant, and transportation corridor and is a short distance from Prospect Park. The famed Flatbush Food Coop, specializing in vegan and organic food options, is nearby with the wonderful Cafe Madeline and many other excellent restaurant choices along the way. Convenient transportation options include the Q Express, B and F trains, just 25 minutes to Manhattan, an Express Bus to Manhattan, and the B68 to Park Slope and Downtown Brooklyn.
