This bright pre-war two-bedroom co-op is in one of the area's most sought-after buildings. Situated on a quiet block, it has leafy views of a tree-lined Brooklyn street and lots of pretty architectural details, such as arched entryways, built-in curio shelving, and beautiful original oak flooring throughout.
Enter to find a deep foyer closet to the right, and a roomy separate office with built-in storage to the left. Beyond is a large, flexible open-plan living/dining area that has big south-facing windows, stylish wall shelving, and an airy open kitchen with quartz countertops, handsome Shaker-style cabinets, a breakfast bar, and loads of storage and counter space. Nicely separate from the main space is an oversized primary bedroom with southern and eastern exposures and an enviably enormous walk-in closet configured with built-in organizational shelving. There are two additional big closets, both with extra tall doors that look elegant and maximize capacity. On the same hallway is a convenient broom closet and a white windowed full bathroom that has a stacked washer and dryer in a tidy nook. The den, which can be used for a number of purposes, is just shy of the legal dimensions of a bedroom, and has a large south facing window which provides lovely light.
This expansive home has a house-like layout and offers extraordinary flexibility of use. Tranquil and serene, this is a home you will want to be sure to see.
Berkeley Square is a pet-friendly, art deco co-op with exceedingly strong financials, no underlying mortgage, large reserves, and affordable maintenance. The building has three full-time doormen, a live-in super, a full-time porter, a bike room, a well-designed common outdoor space, extra storage available for rent (possible waitlist), and parking in a gated adjacent lot for $75/month (waitlist). Close to Prospect Park, the B and Q trains, the revamped Kings Theatre, and all the amenities of Church Avenue and Cortelyou Road, including the year-round Cortelyou farmers market. It's also less than a mile from the Kensington dog run!
