Beautiful, sun-drenched 1+ bedroom with cozy sleeping alcove / study. 2 balconies, endless light, leafy views. Large windows, high ceilings, hardwood floors, elegant, eclectic midcentury-modern furnishings with some antiques. A lovingly curated, uplifting space. A great place for those who work from home.
Fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, nespresso coffee machine, Le Creuset dutch oven and more. Washer/dryer in apartment, central air, excellent cross-ventilation.
The bedroom, which is large and quiet, with writing desk and plenty of closet space, opens onto a balcony with bistro table and chairs overlooking a row of lovely gardens.
The additional study/sleeping alcove in the center of the apartment is an excellent workspace or guest room. Enclosed by curtains, it features an incredibly comfortable single bed and a desk. The library shelves in the hallway hold an inspiring collection of literature and art books.
Third-floor walkup. Summer sublet. Open to discussing longer stays/somewhat flexible start date.
LOCATION/NEIGHBORHOOD
Sited on a quiet, leafy street with 3 community gardens on the block—on the border of Clinton Hill and Bed/Stuy. The neighborhood is vibrant and neighborly, with lively cafes, an excellent array of restaurants and all kinds of ethnic food. Very close to Pratt. A 15-minute walk to Greenlight bookstore, 20 minutes to BAM/Barclays Center or Fort Greene Park and the Fort Greene farmer’s market and Fort Greene Flea. Nearest trains: G, A/C. 2/3/4/5 are also an option. Numerous buses.
Looking for quiet, mindful, non-smoking folks who will love the space as much as we do and consider it a sanctuary. Ideal for one person or a couple. We’d love to hear a little about you and what brings you to Brooklyn!
I'm a writer working in the performing arts who travels a lot for work and spends a good deal of time upstate, where I garden and write. I'm obsessed with design and spaces with character that reflect their occupants and histories.
I own the apartment.
