The layout is a classic railroad style, with high ceilings and five rooms offering plenty of flexibility. The spacious living room overlooks the leafy backyard, offering a calm, tucked-away feel. It is big enough to accommodate a large sofa, coffee table and media setup with room to spare.
From there, step through into a versatile room that can serve as a dining area, king-size bedroom, or a huge home office. Continue on to a cozy room with floor-to-ceiling built-in closets and enough space for a full-size bed.
At the front of the apartment is a sunny room filled with natural light - ideal for a queen-size bed. Just off to the side, you’ll find an additional windowed room with an original built-in closet. You can use this room as a walk-in closet, baby's nursery, or home office.
The kitchen has an old-school charm, with ample cabinet and counter space, a full-size gas stove, a long breakfast bar and an additional pantry. Adjacent to the kitchen is the hallway coat closet and bathroom, featuring a vintage pink tub.
The location is unbeatable. Enjoy nearby favorites like Rolo’s, Julia’s, Gottscheer Hall, Hellbender, and The Flying Fox Tavern. You’re just around the corner from the M train at Forest Ave Station, the Library, two playgrounds and Valentinos.
