Berkley Square at 1701 Albemarle Road #B3

This bright and expansive pre-war two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment in a popular pet-friendly co-op on a quiet block has a house-like layout and is convertible to a still-spacious three-bedroom home. It’s a move-in ready corner unit in the largest line in the building, and it has a multitude of fantastic features such as leafy views of a tree-lined Brooklyn street, graceful arched entryways, original oak flooring throughout, a washer/dryer, soundproofed apartment above, eastern and southern exposures, and eleven windows that let the light pour in! A home like this rarely comes on the market. This is a must-see!

Enter into a gracious foyer that has two closets and is more than big enough for a home office or formal dining table. From here, enter into a huge sunny living room that can easily accommodate both a living and dining area. Opening onto this space is a roomy, remodeled proper eat-in kitchen with a dining nook, charming inset wood-framed chalkboard, built-in wine rack, granite countertops, a dishwasher, and lots of storage and cabinet space.

Down a hallway, nicely separated from the living space, are two massive sunny bedrooms that each have two exposures and two double-deep closets. The primary bedroom has a windowed ensuite updated full bathroom. Also on the hallway is a second updated full bath that is windowed and pretty.

Berkeley Square is a sought-after art deco co-op with exceedingly strong financials, no underlying mortgage, large reserves, and affordable maintenance. The building has three full-time doormen, a live-in super, a full-time porter, a bike room, a well-designed common outdoor space, extra storage available for rent (possible waitlist), and parking in a secure adjacent lot for $75/month (waitlist). Close to Prospect Park, the B and Q trains, the revamped Kings Theatre, and all the amenities of Church Avenue and Cortelyou Road, including the year-round Cortelyou farmer’s market. It’s also less than a mile from the new Kensington dog run.
