1129 Bedford Ave. #1

Beautiful, sunny, spacious 2.5 bedroom apartment available August 1. Lovingly and meticulously renovated, and full of historic detail, it has original wood floors, a marble fireplace, 11-foot ceilings, original moldings throughout, and is positively flooded with light. There’s an eat-in kitchen with new appliances (including a Bosch dishwasher) and very handsome cabinets (made by a carpenter, not IKEA), and there’s also a large, private roof terrace (20 × 32), divided into a patio area for outdoor living/entertaining and a green roof for beauty/environmental sustainability. The apartment has a washer-dryer, central AC, and plenty of storage, and it’s conveniently located near the border of Bed-Stuy and Clinton Hill. It’s close to several subways (A, C, G), buses, and Citi Bike stations, and it’s right across the street from the fabulous Bed-Stuy YMCA (which has a good pool) and a decent grocery store. Near excellent restaurants, bars, and shops (Dynaco, Stonefruit, C’mon Everybody, Speedy Romeo, Hart’s, Pilar, Lucha Lucha, Samurai Papa, Fancy Nancy, Home Frite). And it’s surrounded by good neighbors—downstairs are a record store/cafe and a pottery studio, all manned by warm and wonderful people.
No dogs, sorry, but cats welcome.
