For rent by owner: a charming 2nd floor 1BR plus office in a brick pre-war building in the best neighborhood in Brooklyn! (Okay, maybe I'm biased, but I'm also not wrong!)
This newly renovated apartment features four rooms in a railroad style layout, with ample closet space, a spacious king sized bedroom, two smaller interior rooms perfect for work from home, craft space, or a nursery, and a sunny eat-in kitchen overlooking the landscaped back yard.
The kitchenette features all new stainless appliances--including a Samsung dishwasher and an induction cooktop--brushed gold fixtures, and bright quartz countertops. The full bath is a soothing retreat complete with a soaking tub and all new finishes.
The building itself is a 3 storey brick prewar, with an inviting communal backyard and shared laundry in the basement. Nestled on St Marks between Washington and Underhill, you're steps away from the restaurants and nightlife on Vanderbilt or Washington, and easy walking distance to the B/Q or 2/3 lines, as well as Prospect Park, the Grand Army Plaza Farmer's Market, or the Brooklyn Museum/Botanic Garden.
We pay heat/hot water. Tenant pays electricity and wifi (if desired.)
We (the landlords) have a combined 50 years of experience (omg we're getting old!!) in property management, construction, and tradework in NYC, and live just around the corner. We act as the superintendents and are available to address issues promptly.
We are a small mom-and-pop landlord couple who have lived in the neighborhood for over 20 years. We are responsive but not overbearing, and take pride in making sure the building is a safe, well-kept, and well-managed place to live.
Showings available by appointment after 4pm during the week, or with more flexibility during the weekend.
To apply, we'll need proof of income, references, and credit reports. There is no application fee. We are looking for a responsible tenant who would make a good neighbor.
First month's rent plus security deposit in the amount of one month's rent is due upon lease signing.
