Last fall, CityRealty took a look at a pair of new contemporary buildings by domoarchitecture about to rise on Metropolitan Avenue in the heart of Williamsburg. Construction is still underway on both, but 650 Metropolitan Avenue has just launched sales. The six-story boutique condominium is rising on a once-vacant lot and distinguished by a white brick facade and a black wing on the right side for private balconies. Every section is punctuated with oversized windows.

The eight units within comprise large one-bedrooms, meticulously designed two-bedrooms, and a floor-through penthouse. The oversized soundproof windows fill the homes with abundant natural light, and additional features include white oak flooring, central air conditioning, and washer/dryer hookups. Kitchens are outfitted with Bosch appliances, baths have black mosaic floor tile, and there are Porcelanosa fixtures throughout.

Select units have private balconies overlooking the building’s backyard, and all residents have private storage and access to an outdoor terrace with built-in bar/entertaining area and city views. However, those who moved to Williamsburg for the nightlife came to the right place: 650 Metropolitan Avenue is surrounded by popular bars, restaurants, and other hot spots. Commuters have a choice of the Lorimer Street L and the Metropolitan Avenue G trains just a short walk away.
A one-bedroom is listed for $895K, and a two-bedroom is priced at $1.18 million. At an average price of $1,243 per square foot, the building comes in almost exactly at Williamsburg’s average condo price (per CityRealty data). An accepted offering plan lists a $14 million sellout.
