Call history your home with this amazing condominium in a landmark Brooklyn Heights building. Erected in 1883 as The Brooklyn Newsboys’ Lodging House and used over the centuries as a factory too, this Beaux Arts gem evokes the same 19th-century grandeur as the Brooklyn Bridge just outside its windows. It even resides on one of the last remaining city streets to feature gas-lamp lighting. It also features an enormous, award-winning private garden blooming with flowers and boasting a lively summer barbecue scene just for you and your neighbors. History plays a role in defining the style and luxury of your apartment too. The flooring is hardwood throughout, the ceilings are high and the cabinetry in the kitchen and master bath is cherry wood. But all the right modern touches are here too: stainless steel appliances, a washer and dryer, and central air and heat. Large windows keep the setting bright and abundant closets keep clutter at bay. Pets are welcome residents here and there is a live-in super too. The location is postcard perfect with historic and haute destinations just outside your doors. The Brooklyn Heights Promenade, the new Brooklyn Bridge Park and the galleries and boutiques of Dumbo are within easy strolling distance. There’s also a wonderful dog park ready for you and your pets. Your options for getting to Manhattan include the 2, 3, A, C and F trains or the Water Taxi.
