Canvas Lofts at 118 Greenpoint Ave. #3A

There are one-bedroom condos in Greenpoint and then there is – 118 Greenpoint Avenue Apartment 3A.

The artist/owner of this 777-square foot home has put love and care into even the tiniest details to make this magazine-worthy, top floor unit with private roof deck (@200SF) truly special. Light pours in from the South windows and skylights with a view that embodies both serenity from the gardens and trees, as well as the city skyline and church spires. The open kitchen has top of the line appliances from Fisher Paykel, JennAir and Bosch. There is plenty of room for gatherings and breakfast around the large island made of white Caesarstone. The angel is in the details here with leather straps for closet handles; copper door hinges on all the doors; gray slate window sills, as well as brass doorknobs. The retro touches of 3A are balanced by modern efficiency, with dimmers throughout and a Nest System which controls your central heating and cooling. A closet features your own stacked LG washer and dryer and you control all of your climate and water with a mechanical closet containing your boiler and hot water heater.

Spacious, quiet and bright, one step inside and you realize why this is no run-of-the-mill condominium. Add to that a large deeded storage closet and your home search stops here.
118 Greenpoint Avenue is a well-run 15-unit building with elevator and a superintendent always close at hand and a tax abatement that is in its 7th of 14 years.
