This one-bedroom co-op at 39 Remsen Street is in a perfect location, within a block from the Brooklyn Heights Promenade in an 1870s townhouse. The home is the picture of pre-war charm, endowed with well-preserved original details and beautifully designed modern updates. Asking $945,000, the fourth-floor walk-up is light-filled, with treetop views.
Beneath 10-foot ceilings, enter the living room through a pair of massive pocket doors. The space is framed by original crown molding, hardwood floors, and a wood-burning fireplace with a carved wood mantle.
South-facing floor-to-ceiling windows fill the room with sunlight through intact original wood shutters.
The compact renovated kitchen has timeless charm and capable appliances, including a vented range and a dishwasher. There’s plenty of storage and lots of light from a skylight above.
Tall original wood doors open to a large bedroom with two walk-in closets. The renovated skylit bathroom, like the kitchen, has modern fixtures and timeless charm.
According to the listing, the historic 39 Remsen Street is the neighborhood’s oldest purpose-built apartment house. Residents get a part-time superintendent and dedicated basement storage.
