Buyers who put down the 20% minimum down payment of $119,800 can expect to see monthly payments of $3,807. This includes a mortgage payment of $3,140, common charges of $395, and monthly taxes of $272.
Why You’ll Love It…
This condo unit has two stories: the upper houses the living and dining area, kitchen, and bathroom, while the lower houses an open room with two large closets, perfect for a bedroom. Both stories have wide windows for great natural light, plus an exposed brick wall that adds a vintage touch.
The kitchen is tucked into a corner, but still open to the rest of the living and dining area. Overhead and under-counter cabinets provide lots of storage space, while a suite of full-size stainless steel appliances offers everything you need to cook great meals. The living and dining area also has enough room for a dining table in addition to living room furniture.
Another highlight of the unit is the bathroom, which has been recently renovated. The walk-in stall shower has a rainfall showerhead for a luxurious feel, and also has a built-in bench. The built-in cabinets are the perfect place for linens, and there’s even more storage space in the vanity and medicine cabinets.
This unit is part of a 20-unit condo building in South Slope, just a few blocks from Prospect Park, Nitehawk Cinema, and great eateries, cafes, and bars. The F and G trains are also nearby for easy commutes throughout the city. The building is pet-friendly, has its own garage and laundry room, and offers very low monthlies!
…And Why You Might Not
The building is located in the most southern part of Park Slope, right near the Prospect Expressway, so you may get some traffic noise. There’s no dishwasher, and the floor plan doesn’t show any closets on the upper floor. Still, for this price point — and low monthlies — this one is definitely a winner!
