259 21st St. 2E

The Most Magical Condo In Brooklyn!
Welcome home to 259 21st St, Unit 2E: A distinctive, vast 1250 square foot two-bedroom, two-bathroom corner unit with 13’ high ceilings, three exposures and the most spectacular arched windows you have ever seen! If you have dreamt of owning an apartment that is special and unique, while also checking off the practical boxes, this is it!

When you first walk through the door you are instantly struck by the apartment’s light and breadth, as well as the impressive height of the ceilings. The wide entry hallway includes the first full bath and a vented washer-dryer closet. This then leads to the massive, grand open-concept dining and living area, with the most amazing, romantic arched window as the centerpiece. The kitchen is fully equipped with Bosch and GE appliances (cooking gas is included in maintenance, as well as heat), and has a lovely peninsula, perfect for entertaining. The large two bedrooms are at opposite sides of the open main area, each with spacious closets and amazing light. The primary bedroom has the second magnificent poetic arched window, with sky views and facing the beautiful historic landmarked church, as well as an en-suite full bathroom. Both bedrooms are large enough to also include a home office. As a corner unit, the apartment boasts windows on three sides, with southern, eastern and northern exposures. Recently refinished oak hardwood floors are throughout, new vanities and plumbing in the bathrooms and a new tankless water- heater add even more value to this home. A true two bedroom, the apartment also has a splendid loft feel!

This remarkable home is part of the desirable 38-unit Saint John’s Condominium, an ornate, historic building that was a former grammar school built in 1904, which underwent a full renovation and conversion into loft condominiums in 2006. This pet-friendly building has a large elevator, bike room, wonderful live-in super and a beyond words sprawling 5000 square foot communal rooftop deck, providing breathtaking views of the harbor, Statue of Liberty and city skyline! This architecturally distinctive building is nestled on a serene, tree-lined street in the heart of the thriving Greenwood Heights neighborhood (adjacent to Park Slope). Down the block from the wonderful shops and restaurants on 5th and 6th Avenues, such as Tambour, Sea Witch, Gasworks NYC clay studio, Under Minerva Gallery, Battle Hill Tavern, Luigi’s and Hey Monday Coffee Shop, it is also near the R and F/G subways and the B63 bus. With a myriad of acclaimed school and daycare options just a stone’s throw away, the playground at 6th avenue and 19th street, and a short walk to Prospect Park, Brooklyn living doesn’t get any better than this!
