From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

599 East 7th Street, 4P On a quiet, tree-lined stretch of Kensington, this spacious one-bedroom, one-bath co-op is ready to be called home. Nearly 30 feet deep, the living and dining rooms were made for entertaining, with room for friends and family to gather. The building offers an elevator, part-time doorman, live-in superintendent, two laundry rooms, and a shared outdoor space. Upon entry, a deep double closet sits to the left, followed by a galley kitchen with generous counter space, a dishwasher beside the sink, a gas range, and a refrigerator. Just beyond the kitchen, a dining area comfortably accommodates a table and hutch. The living space is expansive enough to support multiple zones; the current owners have defined a graceful sitting area, with dividers setting apart a home office and a corner for plants and weights. Between the dining and living areas, a short hallway leads to a linen closet, the bathroom, and a king-sized bedroom. Two large closets line the bedroom, and there is ample room for a second workspace and more greenery by the window. The bathroom is finished with black-and-white tiled flooring, a soaking tub, a medicine cabinet, and glass shelving above the toilet. Residents also enjoy a welcoming lobby, along with storage, bike storage, and garage parking, all subject to availability and for an additional fee. The building is near the F train at Ditmas Ave or the Q train at Cortelyou Road No pets, please. A capital assessment of $65.10 per month currently applies to this unit.
