345 Montgomery St. #1L

Located in this Historic Dearborn Cooperative this south facing 1 BR home has it all !
Although it is on the first floor…. it actually feels like it’s much higher up in the building. In many of these elegant and well designed pre-war buildings they had a gradual stepping up to the entrance and then a gradual stepping up to the lobby and then a gradual stepping up to the apartments….so you actually are quite a ways off the street level. You have a window in every room…..and all the windows are south facing and get tons of light.
The present sellers have stylishly re-done the entire apartment so that this home is a lovely combination of old world charm with new world appliances and conveniences. It may be compact, but has everything you need. Good closets, space for Living and Dining in the Living Room, and even a space for a home office in the Bedroom. The windowed kitchen is gorgeous. Any cook would be happy with the set up and storage and quality of finishes in this Cook’s Kitchen. Stainless steel appliances and a beautiful countertop and blue tiled back splash. High ceilings, hardwood floors, pre-war detailing are some of the other bonuses. The bathroom is also beautifully updated. The stall shower has built-in-nooks for storage and the medicine cabinet is also built into the wall so allow for a gorgeous designer mirror to hang over the sink. Did I say it was a quiet apartment, pet friendly and low monthlies.
The Dearborn was built in l928. It is a magnificent Pre-War elevator cooperative with 102 units, a central garden courtyard, large elegant lobby, live-in super and laundry room. The building has two elevators and the windows in all apartments have recently been replaced. The Art Deco lobby provides a timeless and lovely entrance to the building and opens to the front courtyard, which is maintained by the shareholders, along with all the greenery surrounding this gorgeous building.
Located directly between the President and Sterling Street 2/5 train stations make it quick to get to Barclay’s Center/Downtown Brooklyn and Manhattan. You have Prospect Park, Brooklyn Botanical Garden, and Grand Army Plaza all nearby for your enjoyment and Citibike stations close by. The Dearborn is surrounded by many fabulous restaurants and cafes in the neighborhood. Some of our favorites are: Cafe Rue Dix on Bedford, Chavela’s on Franklin, Allan’s Bakery on Nostrand, and Glou on Rogers.I.D. and Masks required for showings. Run, don’t walk. This apartment will not last.
