    Words will never do this home justice, but the experience starts as you enter into a fabulous lobby with marble flooring, exposed brick, and a double wide staircase. As you enter this 1800 sq. ft. unit, you are greeted by what feels like unlimited space. A huge living and dining space is complemented by an equally spacious kitchen appointed with caesarstone countertops, subway backsplash, beautiful cabinetry, and an amazing stainless steel appliance suite. High ceilings follow you throughout the space to add the right amount of drama. The bedrooms seem almost too good to be true--each one could be a master and spares nothing. And the baths are the icing on the cake--they are gorgeous. Bathe in luxury. All of the necessary amenities are also available, including a washer and dryer. And lastly, what's a mansion without outdoor space? Nothing. The shared, manicured courtyard is simply divine. This is not a home that someone simply rents. This is the home you choose when you decide you want to truly live. 196 New York Avenue is a Crown Heights residence on the cusp of Bedford Stuyvesant, allowing you to partake in the richness of both neighborhoods. Great shops, restaurants, and more complement this unique space and provide you with a unique neighborhood experience. This home's centralized location also provides the opportunity to utilize lots of buses and two train lines; A & C and the 2,3,4 &5. When you factor in all that this home has to offer, your home search will truly end. Find Your Sweet Spot.
