JUNIOR 1, standout studio, currently configured with a separate sleeping space, offers so much! This little gem has all the lovely pre-war elements including 9' high ceilings, distinctive archways, parquet and hardwood floors, and a spacious eat-in kitchen. The kitchen has been modernized with stainless appliances including dishwasher, cabinet depth refrigerator, and a 5-burner stove. The old world feeling still lives on in its refurbished original cabinetry which provides abundant storage and blends well with the farm sink and other new cabinets and countertops. This kitchen has an added feature of a wonderful custom cantilevered kitchen table created out of beautiful bubinga wood which has convenient electrical sockets for easy access. In addition there is a bench with storage located below the seats.
The entry foyer (currently functions as a home office) opens into the well proportioned living room and adjacent sleeping area. The living room and sleeping area are separated by two built in bookcases with an architect designed Japanese style, Shoji sliding doors. The area is illuminated with two overhead Arts and Craft style lamps. The bathroom has been fully renovated but still possesses the large art deco cast iron tub for great long soaks. This unit is bright and sunny year-round, thanks to the high floor location and southern exposure.
570 Westminster Road is a PET FRIENDLY coop in Ditmas Park known for its distinctive art deco architecture and sprawling interior courtyard. The impressive lobby has vintage stained glass windows, a soaring ceiling, terrazzo floors, etched brass elevator doors, and vintage crystal sconces. Serene pathways, a gazebo, and inviting benches and grassy areas distinguish the building's shared interior courtyard. Add a 24/7 doorman, live in super, 2 porters, storage (wait list, fee) and bike storage and you see why this coop is so desirable! Milk and Honey Cafe and the new Grounds of Brooklyn both occupy commercial space on the ground floor of this coop. Ox Tavern is only 1 short block away.
Be sure to peruse the tree-lined streets, past signature Victorian houses, from 570 Westminster Road to the neighborhood's many cafes, restaurants, bars, supermarkets, and the year-round Farmers Market (every Sunday) on Cortelyou Road. Bike lane on nearby Argyle road leads to the Parade Grounds and Prospect Park. Only 3 short blocks to B and Q trains at Newkirk Plaza, and 0.6 miles to Cortelyou Road Q station.
