This 2Br/2Bath condo checks all the boxes while delivering more than expected. Unit 5A is a 1,187 masterpiece of modern living, with central air, eastern and western walls of windows, and modern appliances, wares, and finishes including Axor Citterio and Hansgrohe bathroom fixtures, soft-touch Pendi kitchen cabinetry, 24" volcanic bathroom tiling, triple-mirrored bathroom cabinets, stacked washer/dryer, Bosch appliance package, and most coveted of all, a deeded parking spot in the underground garage.
Once a humble car wash, the Absolute Condominium is now a 35 unit condo building located in Clinton Hill and offers residents 24-hour access to the full gym and spacious rec room, complete with billiards, ping pong, tv lounging area, and wifi. Designed by architect Gary Shoemaker and built in 2008, there is an abatement in effect until 2025. There are two elevators and additional parking spots available for rent or for sale. Due to high reserves, new carpeting and fresh paint is anticipated in all common areas, along with other capital improvements.
Clinton Hill has enjoyed a peak in vibrancy in the last decade, with the 4-block Myrtle Plaza leading the way in neighborhood amenities, as well as multiple new buildings and the massive Navy Yard project, which includes Wegmans, Brooklyn Grange, Steiner Studios, a 60,000 sqft food hall, a new East River ferry dock, restored Admiral's Quarters, and new buildings rife with tech and Brooklyn-based manufacturing companies. Once a destination for Manhattan's upper-crust to escape congestion and construct scores of mansions (now landmarked), Clinton Hill is now a historic neighborhood offering Pratt Institute's public gardens and a relaxing stroll to farmer's markets at Fort Greene Park.
