If you’re looking for a little more space at a great price, we’ve got you covered. Our Deal of the Week is in Sunset Park, a laid-back Brooklyn neighborhood that still has easy access to Manhattan. 4012 Seventh Ave. #12 has a large floor plan, some great prewar details, and in-unit laundry. Read on to find out what else we love about this Sunset Park 2BR.

The Price: $664,000

The median asking price for a home in Sunset Park is $1.1 million, according to the StreetEasy Data Dashboard. That puts our Deal of the Week at more than $400K below average for the nabe.

Buyers who put down the minimum 10% down payment of $66,400 can expect to see monthly payments of $3,570. This includes a mortgage payment of $2,611 and a maintenance fee of $959. 

Why You’ll Love It…

First of all, this Sunset Park 2BR is a true 2-bedroom, each with its own closet and windows. Both bedrooms are also very comfortably sized, often rare in NYC apartments. The main living area is separated into three zones, kitchen, dining, and living, with a generous amount of room for each. Prewar details abound, including crown molding, window trim, and tin ceilings.

There’s plenty to love in the kitchen, like the breakfast bar that opens out to the dining room. It boasts a wealth of cabinet and counter space, and a dishwasher too. The dining room connects to the living room via wide French doors, which can be left ajar to create a more open-concept feel. And the bathroom is where you’ll find the most coveted amenity in NYC: an in-unit washer/dryer.

Finally, our Deal of the Week is set in a co-op with bike storage and a shared roof deck. The building is just a block from Sunset Park itself, which offers plenty of green space, phenomenal views, and even an Olympic-size pool.

… And Why You Might Not

The design choices in this Sunset Park 2BR are definitely not for everyone, between the bright paint colors and the sunset-themed backsplash. They are easy fixes, though. There’s also no elevator in the building, making this unit a fourth-floor walkup. But the benefits more than make up for the stairs, especially at this great price. 

Check out the listing at 4012 Seventh Ave. #12, and contact a StreetEasy Expert on the listing for more details. (StreetEasy Experts are agents with proven experience in a particular building or area.)
