On the garden level, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms, a spacious recreation room, ample storage, and a washer and dryer. The second floor features an impressive primary suite, filled with natural light including a massive walk-in closet measuring over 140 square feet, connecting you to an adjacent sitting room through convenient pocket doors-an extraordinary amenity for city living. The top floor offers even more versatility, with multiple rooms that can accommodate a home office, studio, or additional bedrooms-whatever your lifestyle demands.

Ideally located in Crown Heights, this residence is just moments from a wide range of neighborhood amenities and attractions. Enjoy easy access to the S, 2, 3, 4, 5, A and C subway lines, making travel throughout the borough and into Manhattan effortless. Local favorites are just around the corner, offering an array of dining and cultural experiences in one of Brooklyn's most dynamic neighborhoods.
