Listing Notes

Experience sweeping Brooklyn and harbor views from this enchanting one-bedroom home in The Remsen, one of Brooklyn Heights' most coveted full-service, pre-war cooperatives. Perched on a high floor, Apartment 8F is a serene haven defined by its charming pre-war details, including high ceilings and a gracious layout. An inviting foyer leads to an expansive living and dining area, where large windows allow for abundant natural light. The king-sized bedroom is a serene retreat offering truly spectacular, protected views over historic Brooklyn Heights townhouses to the Verrazzano Bridge and New York Harbor. The home features a classic, windowed kitchen and a beautifully finished windowed bathroom with brass fixtures and a soaking tub. Ample storage, including a large bedroom closet and a foyer closet, completes this impeccable residence. The Remsen (c. 1928) is renowned for its magnificent Romanesque faade and elegant lobby. Residents enjoy premier amenities, including a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, bike storage, and laundry. Situated on a landmarked block just moments from the Promenade, Brooklyn Bridge Park, and premier dining and transportation, this is quintessential Brooklyn Heights living.
