In the heart of Brooklyn Heights, one block from the Promenade and one block from all the conveniences of Montague Street, 76 Remsen Street #4C is an elegant and sophisticated turn-key pre-war, two-bedroom, two-bath home with a large separate dining room, spacious proportions and its own private balcony.
A welcoming foyer greets you upon arrival, complete with a large closet and plenty of space to hang your coats and hats. A wall of beautiful, custom floor-to-ceiling built-ins frame the entire expanse of the living room providing open shelving and cabinetry for display and storage. Gorgeous light streams into the roomy living space through long windows and the door they frame which leads to the balcony. Enjoy dining al fresco, tending your flower boxes or simply taking in the lovely view of neighboring brownstones and backyards on this little outdoor oasis.
This corner unit boats three exposures, north, south and east, bathing the apartment in glorious light throughout the day. The separate dining area is luxurious with plenty of space to host large dinner parties, while the windowed kitchen, with white cabinetry and granite counters, offers the amount of counter and storage space one would expect in a suburban kitchen. Off the dining room is the smaller of the two bedrooms featuring its own en suite bath.
Across the living room, down a short hall, conveniently separated from the rest of the apartment, is the king-sized primary bedroom. With southern and eastern exposure, the light is fabulous in the this room. Views of the trees and gardens below give this the bedroom a serene feel and, since it is at the back of the building, it is peaceful and quiet. A built-in, wall-to-wall armoire provides fantastic closet space, while a second, deep closet is perfect for linens. Just outside the primary bedroom is the main bath, also windowed, classically designed with hexagon and subway tile and a deep cast-iron tub. Directly across, a walk-in closet provides even more storage.
Throughout the apartment you'll find high ceilings, impeccable hardwood floors-some laid in a unique chevron pattern-- five roomy closets, picture frame molding and pre-war charm.
76 Remsen is a small 23-unit elevator building offering storage, bike storage and a bright and fresh laundry room in the basement. The coop has a live-in super and a lushly landscaped common garden. There is also a back entrance off Grace Court Alley that makes loading in and out a breeze. A block from Montague Street, a block from the Promenade, near Brooklyn Bridge Park, and a short jaunt to multiple train lines (the R, 2/3, 4/5, A/C, and F trains), the location is unbeatable. Pet friendly too.
