Welcome to a quiet house with friendly landlords on a truly neighborly block. This high-ceiling apartment is tucked away on the second floor at the back of the house, overlooking the garden. The windows bring in plenty of sunlight, perfect for plant lovers. It features 4 distinct rooms -- living room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. Generous storage includes:

* A large closet in the bedroom

* Pantry shelves in the kitchen

Bathroom
Enjoy a large bathtub/shower under an original skylight that fills the room with natural light. You can hang plants in your shower!

Kitchen
The kitchen includes full-sized stainless steel stove and fridge, a large window, and cabinets with plenty of storage space. It has just enough space for a small table for an eat in kitchen.

Laundry
Shared laundry is being installed in the basement.

Utilities included in rent:
* Radiant heat
* Electricity powered by solar panels
* Verizon Fios WiFi
The only utility you’ll need to cover is gas for cooking.

The apartment has new windows, new insulation, and many upgrades.

The House & Location
The apartment is on the top floor of a two-story brick row house with a basement, on East 32nd Street between Snyder and Tilden. Entry involves a half flight of stairs to the front door and a full flight up to the second-floor apartment. The front door has electronic locks. Another tenant also lives on this floor.

Tenants are welcome to enjoy the front garden—whether sitting on the stoop or tending a small gardening plot (if that’s your thing).

Transit & Parking
The 2/5 trains are just a five-minute walk away at either Church Avenue or Beverley Road (we recommend Beverley—it’s calmer and less crowded). The B35 and B44 buses are within two blocks, and a Citibike rack is one block away. Street parking is usually manageable.

Community
The block is especially known for its warmth. Many residents are first- and second-generation Caribbean families. Don’t be surprised if people greet you with a “good morning” or “good evening.” This block has a long-active neighborhood association—Tilder Block Association—which has won awards in the Greenest Block in Brooklyn contest multiple times. Expect gardening opportunities, casual stoop hangouts, fish fries and curry-ques, plus annual traditions like the block party and apple cider pressing. Neighbors range from babies to 90-year-olds, and everyone looks out for one another.

The House’s Character
Built about 125 years ago, the house has all the charm (and quirks) of its age: original woodwork, a carved wooden foyer door, moldings, and original skylights. Alongside that charm come the creaks and groans of old stairs and some worn details. It’s all part of the experience—and if you appreciate that mix of history and character, we’d love for you to apply.
