Description

LOFT! LOFT! LOFT! Spacious and open, 2A is a one-of-a-kind convertible one-bedroom loft with your very own terrace that you’ve been dreaming of! This stunning apartment is located on a quiet neighborhood block in South Slope/Greenwood Heights, in the coveted Saint John’s Condominium.

Completely unique to the market, the apartment has been elegantly and thoughtfully renovated to maximize the space while retaining the open feel between the kitchen, living and sleeping areas. The kitchen is outfitted with top of the line stainless steel appliances for all of your everyday and hosting needs. The open layout is in keeping with true loft proportions and is currently configured with two sleeping quarters, custom designed in walnut with a custom built closet to match. The sculptural sleeping structures feature sliding doors, and when closed is reminiscent of Richard Serra’s steel art sculptures.

If you choose to remove the two custom built sleeping areas, the flexible open layout can easily convert into a true one bedroom apartment with ample room for dining and entertaining. Please see the alternate floor plan for more details on a possible layout.

For additional convenience, there is a separate laundry closet with a stacked washer and dryer making laundry a breeze. You will find plenty of storage including an entry closet and custom built cabinetry throughout the apartment. Step out onto your own 7 × 10 sf private terrace to enjoy a freshly brewed cup of coffee or watch a spectacular sunset with a glass of wine to unwind.

The apartment is located in the notable elevator five-story condo building, formerly a grammar school, built in 1901. The building was fully renovated and converted into 52 loft condominiums in 2006. Enjoy the best harbor and city skyline views on the building’s expansive 5,000 sf roof.

South Slope/Greenwood Heights is known for its plethora of hip restaurants and bars. The building is close to Prospect Park and Green-Wood Cemetery. Great access to public transportation including the R, F and G subway lines as well as minutes away from the BQE.

Come to see this apartment and make your very own Brooklyn loft dreams come true! Please inquire for more details and to schedule a viewing!

    "Greenwood is so beautiful. The only thing I hate abt here is that it’s so expensive and it’s so hard to find a place to park ur car. But if you have the money and patience to own a car and find a parking space this is the right place for you. There’s rlly good nearby schools I attended ps295 and new voices which is in the same building and I absolutely loved my time there"

    "Green word is such a beautiful place to live. It’s not noisy might be cause of holidays but that’s it. Safe at all hours and days. Close to transportation. I live near 5th ave and always take the R or B63. But it is a hard time to find a place to park your car and it is expensive but if you have the money and have patience with finding parking then this is the right place for you. And it’s close to schools if you have kids "

    "You cannot take your dog into Greenwood cemetery so I’m commenting on the person who said people don’t pick up after their dogs in the cemetery. In general, many people do not pick up after their dogs past 6th Avenue down to 4th between 15th street and 23rd. It’s a problem. We have dogs and continually pick up after people when our dogs go in an effort to keep our streets clean. "
