Purchase this apartment with only 10% down! Welcome to this inviting, front-facing one-bedroom apartment in desirable northern Kensington. It offers efficient layout, updated kitchen and bathroom, and hardwood floors throughout. The light caresses the interior through a wall of 3 west-facing windows in the living room and 3 more windows in the King-sized bedroom. The kitchen could use some TLC, and owners of similar unit opened it up into the living room, with the addition of a countertop in between. There are 3 closets, and the rooms have A/C sleeves so you do not have to use windows to mount air conditioners. Monthly maintenance includes all utilities, except electricity.

It is hard not to appreciate the ultra-modern lobby, hallways, elevator, and mailroom. There is common laundry in the building that will be equipped by brand new washers and dryers soon, and a friendly live-in Super. Parking and storage are wait-listed. Unlimited subletting is allowed after the initial 2-year wait.

There is bike storage. Live just off Cortelyou Rd., in the Kensington / Ditmas Park vicinity, with quick access to dining and entertainment options on Cortelyou Rd. and Church Ave. Choose between the Q or the F trains for a very reasonable commute to the city or to the beaches. An express bus stop is just a few blocks away, on Cortelyou and Westminster Rd. This is a cats-only building: sorry, no dogs. Ask to see this reasonably priced apartment with low downpayment before the spring selling season starts!
