From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Welcome to Residence 3A at 15 Butler Place, a sprawling 900-square-foot, pre-war, two-bedroom, one-bathroom gem that has just been meticulously updated from top to bottom. Bathed in natural light, the home features generously proportioned rooms, including an expansive living area and a separate formal dining room, offering plenty of space to relax, entertain, or work from home. The gut-renovated chef's kitchen features LG and Bosch stainless steel appliances, beautiful Fabuwood Allure Galaxy Dove White cabinetry, nickel hardware, and a classic 3*8-inch grayish-white subway tile backsplash. The two bedrooms are tucked away from the living and dining areas, creating a wonderful separation between private and shared spaces. The apartment also boasts beautifully restored oak hardwood floors, French doors, built-ins, excellent closet space, and eight windows. This is a lovely apartment to call home in one of Brooklyn's most desirable neighborhoods, just moments from Grand Army Plaza, Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. The location is convenient to the 2, 3, B, and Q trains, as well as excellent restaurants, cafes, and shops. Pets upon approval. Pictures are virtually staged.
