Experience the perfect blend of historic Brooklyn charm and modern convenience in this sprawling, sun-drenched two-bedroom residence spanning the entire top floor. Perched in a classic brownstone, this home boasts soaring 10-foot ceilings and gorgeous hardwood floors, bathed in brilliant natural light throughout the day. The C train (Clinton Washington) is a 30 second walk from your front door!

The expansive kitchen is a home cook's dream, illuminated by a beautiful skylight and featuring brand-new stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, and a rare, oversized walk-in pantry for exceptional storage. An in-unit washing machine adds ultimate everyday convenience, while a dedicated entryway coat closet ensures you have plenty of room to stow your belongings the moment you walk through the door.

Tucked away at the rear of the building, both evenly sized bedrooms offer a peaceful, pin-drop quiet retreat overlooking a lush garden. Each bedroom is outfitted with generous built-in closets, providing ample storage space without sacrificing square footage or comfort.

Located on a beautiful, picturesque brownstone block, 535 Washington Avenue is ideally situated just a few minutes away from the vibrant corridors of Vanderbilt and Dekalb Avenues. This puts an incredible array of amazing cafes, restaurants, and bars right at your fingertips.

Residence Highlights: - Full-Floor Privacy: Occupies the entire top floor for quiet living with excellent natural light and no upstairs neighbors. - Classic Details: Lofty 10-foot ceilings, an original fireplace, and beautifully maintained hardwood floors throughout. - Home Cook's Kitchen: Features a bright skylight, brand-new stainless steel appliances, and a massive walk-in pantry. - Tranquil Bedrooms: Two equally sized, garden-facing bedrooms with generous built-ins. - Premium Conveniences: In-unit washing machine and abundant supplemental storage. - Prime Location: Steps away from the best dining, nightlife, and historic charm the neighborhood has to offer.
