An incredibly rare home in an incredibly special neighborhood. Apartment 12C in the beloved Hillman Cooperative complex has been fully renovated as a refined and thoughtful two bedroom, two bathroom retreat.Imagined by designer Jeffrey Gray and built by architect Greg Colston, Apartment 12C is 1100 square feet of timeless living. Taken "down to the studs" in 2018, this home's hand plastered walls and white oak chevron floors rival any luxury development at a fraction of the carrying cost.
Enter this elegant top floor unit through a petite foyer lined with Phillip Jefferies Seagrass wallpaper and partitioned from the public hallway by a secondary, noise-reducing pocket door. A clever built-in coat closet and deep drawers provide concealed utility. Here one enters the great room; a combined kitchen, living, and dining space with views to the Williamsburg Bridge and East River.
The Reform Profile kitchen, in smoked oak, is a home chef's dream. Six burner Blue Star range with convection oven, Subzero refrigerator with 36" bottom freezer, Bosch dishwasher, and Elkay double stainless sink. Brass fixtures including Omnia cabinet pulls, under counter lighting for brilliant workspace, and a large central island and counters topped with Vermont Imperial Danby marble. The living/dining room hosts layered, dimmable lighting including a custom chandelier from Allied Maker, high-end roller blinds, Nest Protect alarms, and a TV built-in (flat screen included).
Two split bedrooms and two full, windowed baths off of a shared hall, protected by another pocket privacy door, offer quiet sanctuary. With no upper neighbor and bespoke 4" wood blinds, these spaces are intimate and serene. Bedrooms feature white oak plank floors, brass Allied Maker overhead and bedside reading fixtures, and ceiling fans. Bathrooms feature NEMO subway tile, honed bianco marble floors, Zuma soaking tub (bath 1) and seamless glass shower enclosure (bath 2). Each bedroom complemented by custom California closets, an XL walk-in off of the primary bed and a wall of mirrored storage in the secondary. Primary bed overlooks the treetops of Hillman Cooperative's private gated park.
Though very low, the monthly maintenance here allows for full time security at this 9 building complex, access to a private park, a dog run, gardening club, and the hobby club (a fully equipped woodworking shop!). Also available for additional fee is a parking garage, gym membership, bike storage, and large, self-serve laundry facilities. Hillman Housing Coop proudly fosters a sense of community spirit and engagement, a city within this city.
