There is a new arrival at The Manchester, a well known and meticulously maintained coop building in the heart of Kensington.
A usable foyer with a double-closet leads you to a generous living room that exits to a deep and wide balcony that can accommodate a dining table and chairs. The bedrooms are of generous size (the 2nd bedroom is currently used as a dining room, but no structural changes are needed to start utilizing it as a bedroom again). The windowed eat-in kitchen was tastefully renovated in black and white finishes, and it offers generous quartz counters, and ample cabinetry. The main bathroom was nicely renovated and tiled, and the 2nd bathroom is not currently being used due to low occupancy in the apartment. The bold and original design choices of the wall and ceiling colors you can observe in the photos can be made neutral in a blink of an eye by a skilled painter. You will appreciate hardwood floors throughout this home, and generous closet space.
The Manchester is a building with 6 stories, 2 elevators, a live-in Super, a Porter, and a laundry room. The reason it is one of the most sought after Post-War coops in the Northern Kensington is because it is maintained with care by a tenured Superintendent and is located right on Cortelyou Rd., just 2 blocks from Cortelyou Rd, with its ever-changing mix of restaurants, shopping, and coffee shops. The Q train is just a few blocks to the East, and the first bicycle path on Ocean Parkway is a block away to the West. You will be only 5 short blocks away from the Ditmas Avenue statin of the F train. Storage and bike storage are waitlisted, and cats are Ok. There is an indoor, low-cost parking garage in the building, with a relatively short waitlist for the neighborhood. Cats are allowed. You can purchase this home with only 15% down - as long as it is still available. Low maintenance includes all utilities except electricity, and showings are available 7 days per week.
