Top-floor, corner two-bedroom residence with southern and eastern exposures in the coveted J line at 960 Sterling Place—an elegant pre-war elevator building in the heart of historic Crown Heights.
Light-drenched and airy, this generously sized home features impeccably maintained hardwood floors, nine-foot ceilings, original arches and crown moldings, and a sparkling eat-in kitchen with a large picture window offering beautiful views of the Brooklyn skyline.
The primary bedroom is spacious enough to accommodate a king-sized bed and a large office set-up, and boasts double exposures. The second bedroom is also well-sized—ideal for one or two children—and is conveniently located on the opposite side of the shared bathroom.
The entry foyer is large enough to serve as a flexible space, accommodating a formal dining table for eight, a pull-out sofa for guests, or simply an additional seating area. The entire unit offers endless possibilities in terms of layout and use, along with ample storage provided by six closets.
960 Sterling Place is a beautifully constructed and classic 79-unit co-op. The building features a new laundry room, bike storage, and a newly renovated garden designed by BrookLandscape, which can also be rented for private events. Additional storage is available (short waitlist). With a live-in superintendent and porter, the building is impeccably maintained and consistently staffed.
This home is located just two blocks from the Brooklyn Children’s Museum, the newly-renovated Brower Library, and Brower Park, and equidistant to the Nostrand Avenue 3 train and the President Street 2/5 train. The Nostrand Avenue LIRR stop is also a few blocks away for a quick ride to JFK airport. Union Market, Chavela’s, Mayfield, Silver Rice, Screamer’s Pizzeria, and Franklin Park are all within a ten-minute walk of this classic, well-proportioned gem.
