1825 Foster Avenue, Unit 5A, Ditmas Park, Brooklyn, NY 11230
Description
The living room is sun-flooded, with high ceilings, built-in bookshelves, and space for multiple seating areas,...Large, luminous, and artfully refinished: this airy pre-war one bedroom plus home office — nearly 1000 square feet and easily convertible for two bedroom use — features high ceilings, classic arches, and graciously proportioned rooms. Gleaming, freshly refinished original hardwood floors, high ceilings, and a newly renovated kitchen and bath make for the perfect combination of old and new.
The living room is sun-flooded, with high ceilings, built-in bookshelves, and space for multiple seating areas, distinct from the separate dining room.
The primary bedroom is larger than many studio apartments, with a wall of closets and a fully built-out storage system; new fans and fixtures throughout the home keep light and air moving.
The home office, with its charming and effective Shoju screens, easily opens to the living area or closes to convert to a music room, library, or second bedroom — letting life grow larger without sacrificing space to entertain, relax, and enjoy. The image showing the home office is exactly as it is today; the virtual staging as a child's bedroom suggests how it could be (and has been for owners living on this line previously).
A wide foyer and copious closets and built-ins, both original and additional, provide ample storage. And every room is lit with the same flooding southern sunshine, facing the same dreamy treetop views over the distinctive roofs of Ditmas Park. Truly: one of Brooklyn's sweetest homes.
1825 Foster is an elevator and laundry building that has undergone a recent round of capital and environmental improvements, and has an "A" energy rating and a short-running assessment ($159.55/mo through December 2026) to pay off the costs of a new heat-reflective roof and solar energy array. Like the apartment itself: the perfect blend of old and new, located three short blocks from the B/Q at Newkirk Plaza.
