Brooklyn Heights is home to a beautiful stock of housing set against some of the most stunning backdrops. There’s an abundance of landmarked blocks, tree-lined streets, and swoon-worthy architecture that sets it apart from just about any other neighborhood in NYC. It’s also home to the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, a lovely public space set above the East River with breathtaking views of the Manhattan skyline. It’s no surprise that Brooklyn Heights is one of the borough’s priciest neighborhoods, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t some deals to be found. We’ve rounded up five Brooklyn Heights homes asking less than $1 million.
Perched on the fifth floor of a 12-story co-op building is this corner 1-bedroom that showcases 10-foot-high ceilings, multiple exposures, and lots of sunlight through its oversized windows. The south-facing bedroom boasts a wall of closets, and the kitchen is equipped with sleek cabinetry. A storage unit is included with this home, the building is pet-friendly, and there are laundry rooms on each floor.
This 2-bedroom abode pairs its prewar layout with contemporary updates. Each room touts an airy feel thanks to the abundance of natural light pouring in through its large windows. The windowed kitchen is sleek and modern with white cabinets, new stainless steel appliances, and a stacking washer/dryer that’s tucked away behind a closet. The primary bedroom can fit a king-size bed and includes huge bay windows, along with a custom double closet. The second bedroom features pocket doors with frosted glass inlays, a large closet, and northwest-facing windows that give view to the city’s skyline.
It doesn’t get more charming than this lovely studio co-op in a classic brownstone on Remsen Street. The living room is highlighted by an original fireplace with a mantle, two windows that give view to the neighborhood, a built-in bookcase, and refinished oak floors. The eat-in kitchen has been revamped with granite counters and stainless steel appliances, while the bathroom is split between a shower room and a washroom. A sizeable nook between the kitchen and living room makes for a cozy sleeping area, and two large armoires nearby provide ample storage space.
