(3 & 4 BEDROOMS ALSO AVAILABLE)

Two bedrooms, a bath and a half, and not a single person has ever lived here. Let's talk.

We took 59 Duffield to the studs floors, kitchen, bath, electrical, plumbing, all of it. Everything you touch in this apartment is brand new.

High ceilings throughout, which is the thing you feel before you can name it. Rooms breathe. Light travels.

And that half bath is doing more work than it gets credit for. Two people sharing one bathroom is a personality test. Two people sharing one and a half is a peaceful home. You'll thank us on a Tuesday morning.

The block is the part nobody believes until they're standing on it tree-lined, quiet, prewar, the whole postcard and somehow you're smack in the middle of Downtown Brooklyn. Jay St-MetroTech (A/C/F/R) and Borough Hall (2/3/4/5), minutes away. City Point, DeKalb Market Hall, Trader Joe's, and a straight walk down to Dumbo and the Bridge Park.

New kitchen with dishwasher. Washer/dryer in the unit no basement, no laundromat, no quarters, goodbye forever.

Reach out I'm showing today and I'd love to open the door for you.
