Apartment 1G, located on the raised first floor, with the benefit of no elevator use needed, is a south facing well designed one-bedroom, one-bath apartment. Its location in the rear of the building, overlooking the sunny garden and charming carriage houses, offers a quiet sanctuary full of natural light and the sounds of nature.
Architectural details are noted throughout, both appealing in style while full of functional convenience, thanks to renovations by a previous owner who was with Robert A.M. Stern. Recent upgrades to hardwood floors and crown moldings, enhance the beamed high ceilings and ample windows in every room, including the bathroom. The entrance leads to a nice sized foyer including a deep closet. The living room has plenty of space for both lounging and dining areas.
The windowed open kitchen, off the living room, has designer touches including sleek white custom cabinetry, Caesarstone countertops, concealed Bosch dishwasher, and high-end stainless steel appliances including Avanti gas range and LG refrigerator.
The hallway has a large double door walk-in closet conveniently across from the bathroom, gleaming with a white tiled, glass-enclosed, Riobel rain shower with handheld, Ronbow custom vanity, and a window for light and fresh air.
The bedroom is an entire living space, large enough for a king-size bed and multiple pieces of furniture; even room to create a home office. The multiple options for layouts will suit every need. A stylish yet functional ceiling fan and light create a finishing touch to the room.
The Remsen is a timeless and classic full-service 10 story cooperative residence from 1928, welcoming you with an elegant pre-war lobby combined with the modern attentive services of a full-time super and 24/7 concierge. The building has a laundry room and bike storage in the lower level. Maintenance includes all utilities. It is pet friendly and dog owners will enjoy the multiple dog parks nearby. Sublets and Pied-a-terre permitted.
Situated between Hicks and Henry streets on a coveted block, 70 Remsen Street is close to the Promenade with its incredible views of the East River and Manhattan. Active outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy the Brooklyn Park Piers that offer recreation, sports fields, and sailing clubs. Surrounding the Remsen there is plenty to choose from in shops, boutiques, markets, restaurants, and bars. Convenient transportation on the R 2 3 4 5 trains is just a few blocks away.
There is not a more perfectly situated home to have in Brooklyn Heights.
