Description

Loft B-312 offers something rarely present in most waterfront homes; The sound of waves colliding with the base of the building when windows are ajar. This calming effect isn’t as audible in most waterfront condominiums in Brooklyn, because there is typically a break of land between a building and the estuary itself. However, 184 Kent stands directly against the East River, and only a few units perched at the buildings’ west end enjoy this benefit, this feeling of being on top of the water.

Facing East, at the other side of B-312 both bedrooms face a massive lush courtyard with truly impressive landscaping. When windows are open at this side of the home you here the sounds of chirping birds and leaves rustling in the wind. This juxtaposition makes B-312 one of only eight units in the building with both of these unique features.

The interior of the loft-like condos at the Austin Nichols House perfectly blend the timeless historic qualities of the residence with a modern twist. You’ll find high beveled concrete ceilings, expansive floor spaces, and concrete columns in some lofts. It is evident that the building has historic relevance, having once operated as a Grocery Trade and then Bourbon Distillery.

B-312 itself boasts permanent spectacular views of Manhattan through 3 tall cross pattern windows. Note that the interior has been modified with new hardware and cabinet fronts in the kitchen, new modern lighting installed in each room, added storage space in the primary bedroom, additional built-in storage with a murphy bed in the second bedroom, and a new Miele washer/dryer. Austin Nichols offers one of the most impressive amenity packages you’ll find at a condominium in Brooklyn.

This includes several manicured outdoor spaces including the roof with it’s 2 gas-line grills, a waterfront fitness center where you can watch ferries skip by from each treadmill, a theater with premium seating and surround sound, a music room with an upright piano, a massive business center with private conference rooms, a large childs playroom, storage, garage parking, bicycle parking, and on and on. Sure, there are other buildings that offer these amenities, but none quite as large and well thought-through as those in the Austin Nichols House.
