Description

Watch the sun set over the city in this exquisite convertible three-bedroom, two-bathroom condominium featuring a massive terrace, beautifully updated interiors and an ideal location at the intersection of Dumbo and Vinegar Hill.

Inside this sun-kissed 1,447-square-foot home, tall ceilings rise over hardwood floors and expansive windows on three exposures. A gracious foyer flanked coat closet opens to the sprawling indoor-outdoor great room, offering a generous footprint for seating and dining areas. Outside, the huge 719-square-foot terrace welcomes al fresco entertaining and lounging with lush plantings, electrical access and views that skim across the neighboring rooftops, from the Manhattan Bridge to the Empire State Building.

The beautifully gut-renovated open kitchen impresses with custom-built hardwood cabinetry designed by Cochineal Design topped by a classic farm sink and Neolith slab countertops with marble detailing. The fleet of upscale appliances includes a Wolf range, Bertazzoni convection oven, Sub Zero refrigerator and Miele dishwasher.

Head to the primary suite to discover a king-size bedroom lined by large windows, a sliding glass door to the terrace, and a wall of closets. In the gut-renovated en suite bathroom, all-new Roca porcelain tile surrounds a soaking tub, shower, and double vanity.

The spacious and bright secondary bedroom offers corner windows and access to a full guest bathroom featuring whimsical B-A-N-A-N-A-S! wallpaper by Flavor Paper. CitiProof windows in both bedrooms create a serene sleeping environment, while custom A/C sleeves increase efficiency and reduce noise and pollution. Nest thermostats and a laundry closet with an oversized Whirlpool washer-dryer add comfort and convenience to this exceptional Brooklyn retreat.

Currently configured as a two-bedroom, this large home can easily be converted to a three-bedroom layout if desired.

Set within a handsome prewar brick warehouse, The Bridges is a pet-friendly boutique condominium where residents enjoy elevator service, multiple free-to-use laundry rooms, storage for rent, a bike room, a second-floor terrace and a glorious roof deck with panoramic city and river views .

Located where Vinegar Hill meets Dumbo, this home is just minutes from the desirable neighborhood’s fantastic restaurants, gourmet markets and eclectic nightlife and let’s not forget the new state of the art Lifetime Fitness directly across the street.

Open space abounds in half a dozen nearby parks and along the stunning Brooklyn waterfront. Explore Empire Stores, visit the Brooklyn Flea under the iconic Archway, or head to Brooklyn Navy Yards for Wegmans, Brooklyn Grange and an array of design businesses and events. Transportation is effortless with F, A/C and 2/3 trains, excellent bus service, the Brooklyn Bridge Park ferry terminal and CitiBike stations all nearby.
