From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

*First showing window Thursday, November 5th from 4-5PM* One flight up in a thoughtfully designed four unit condominium, Apartment 2 is a sunlit floor-through two-bedroom with refined finishes and sophisticated design throughout. It is the only residence in the building lined with graceful arched windows, which frame the open living, dining, and kitchen space and look out over the beautiful tree lined brownstones of St. Marks Avenue. The sun drenched kitchen pairs custom shaker style cabinetry with limestone countertops along with a suite of premium appliances and generous storage throughout. It flows seamlessly into the bright, inviting living and dining area, a natural setting for both quiet evenings and effortless entertaining. Down the hall, two generously proportioned bedrooms are bathed in natural light from southern exposures. The primary suite offers an expansive walk in closet that opens to the en suite bath. Both bathrooms feel like a private spa, with striking vanities, Carrara marble floors, brass fixtures, and Toto toilets. Four spacious closets and an in unit washer and dryer complete the home. The building meets Passive House standards, among the most rigorous for energy efficiency. Triple glazed airtight windows and a continuous supply of filtered fresh air create a home that is quiet, comfortable, and healthy, while using up to 70% less energy than comparable conventional buildings. St. Marks Avenue sits at the heart of Prospect Heights, one of Brooklyn's most sought after neighborhoods. Everyday conveniences line Flatbush and Vanderbilt Avenues, express trains reach Manhattan in about 15 minutes, and a stroll down Vanderbilt brings you to Grand Army Plaza and Prospect Park.
