This condo is a steal with full amenities in a five-year-old, 12-story Brooklyn building praised by The New York Times for its stunning architecture drawing on Japanese influences.
Located in the chic Boerum Hill neighborhood, adjacent to Downtown Brooklyn and Park Slope, 561 Pacific Street offers the seclusion of a traditional brownstone block but is just steps away from the subway stop at Atlantic Terminal-Barclays Center (2,3,4,5,B,D,N,Q,R lines; also LIRR terminus). You're only a few stops to Manhattan hubs like Wall Street, Grand Central, and Bryant Park.
561 Pacific is surrounded by restaurants, bars, coffee shops, bookstores, and antiques dealers that set the trends the rest of New York follows. A few minutes' walk away are cultural institutions like Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM). Green spaces including Fort Green and Prospect Park are an easy walk or jog away. There're Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, many independent gourmet food stores, and plenty of bodegas.
This studio -- Unit #404 -- is ideal for the New Yorker who works hard, loves being close to good nightlife and parks, and deserves the best amenities. The unit is outfitted with still-mint-condition Bosch appliances: washer-dryer, dishwasher, refrigerator, microwave, and oven with touchscreen. The air conditioning and heat are controlled by a Daikin system.
This unit's sweeping views take in the heart of Brooklyn, including local landmarks like the iconic Williamsburgh Savings Bank tower (built in late 1920s) and the Barclays Center (where you can catch the biggest concerts or a Nets game).
The condo owners at 561 Pacific enjoy 24-hour door staff who never forget a name, a full gym, a roof with grills for barbecuing, a lounge room with a pool table, and a kids' room. At just 12 stories, 561 Pacific's amenities are never crowded.
Boerum Hill and the surrounding part of Brooklyn are a hot real estate area -- but 561 Pacific is a rarity for its small size, proximity to subway, and critically praised design. There are few opportunities to buy into this condo building or anything remotely comparable, and with almost all neighboring spaces costing millions, you're not likely to find a more affordable opportunity than with Unit #404. For mid-six-figures, you can buy into a seven-figure real estate experience. It's a no-brainer.
