Why You’ll Love It…
Enter this Sunset Park 2-bedroom into the lovely kitchen and take in the fresh renovations. Decked out in floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, the kitchen is teeming with storage space and also has room for a small dining set. A full suite of stainless steel appliances includes a dishwasher, stacked refrigerator, oven, and range. Gleaming white subway tile and a deep and wide farmhouse sink bring a modern feel, while the molding on the ceiling and around the doors brings some vintage charm. A sliding, windowed pocket door separates the kitchen and living room.
The bedrooms are on different ends of the apartment, the larger of the two sitting off the living room and the smaller next to the kitchen. Both have windows and ample room for furniture.
The bathroom sports similar white subway tile to the kitchen, in addition to penny tile floors, a spacious vanity and a soaking tub. This room, like all the other rooms in the apartment, has a window. Speaking of which, all the exposures are soundproof CitiQuiet windows, so you won’t have to worry about noise from the street.

Located just off the corner of the neighborhood’s namesake park, the building has common laundry, a shared courtyard and bike storage. Due to retail spaces located on the property, maintenance fees stay uncommonly low (yes, like $328 low). The unit also comes with its own 10-by-5 storage unit in the basement. In addition to Sunset Park’s walking trails, pool, and courts, the building is near a great mix of restaurants and cafes, offering everything from Colombian fare to Yemeni coffee to banh mi. The D, N, and R trains are nearby, too.
… And Why You Might Not
The bedroom located off of the living room doesn’t have a closet, so you may have to get creative with storage solutions. Or, this room would also make a great den, guest room, office… you name it. The unit is also located on the first floor, hence the half-frosted windows. Of course, this won’t bother everyone, and for the location, price and monthly cost, this one is hard to pass up.
