277 Washington Avenue, Unit 5J
Description
The sizeable living...It’s Paris in Brooklyn! This one-bedroom Clinton Hill co-op is practically calling your name. From the moment you step into the foyer, you are struck by charm and elegance. Beautifully adorned with original wainscoting and trim, handsome parquet floors, and decorative window frames, it’s the perfect retreat in one of Brooklyn’s most picturesque neighborhoods. Natural light pours through the oversized windows overlooking the Pratt campus, only further enhancing the charming appeal.
The sizeable living area offers plenty of room for living and dining rooms, and enough space to accommodate a kitchen island. The bathroom adds to this apartment’s character, with subway-tiled walls, ornate tile floors, and a pedestal sink. Move on to the bedroom, and you’ll find a generous room that offers plenty of space for a king-sized bed and a nook for your home office.
Francine Towers is a stunning pre-war co-op in prime Clinton Hill, featuring a central laundry room, a bike room, and private storage. The building is very pet-friendly and allows subletting after two years of ownership. There’s easy access to transit, including the C and G subway lines, as well as multiple CitiBike stations. Local favorites like Evelina, Aita, Miss Ada, and so much more are all within reach.
Don’t miss your opportunity to call this little slice of Paris your home!
