248 17 Street   Unit 5

Available for September 1st move-in.

Perched at the meeting of South Park Slope and Greenwood Heights, this stunning loft stands above the typical two-bedroom offering.

Upon entering the space, residents and guests are greeted by painted brick, pine wide-plank flooring, and unparalleled light thanks to north facing windows and skylights. The living room is over 300 sq/ft and takes full advantage of the soaring angled ceiling which reaches 13 feet high at the front of the apartment.

The first bedroom houses a large window and includes a lofted bed above the door. The primary bedroom boasts three closets and sits in the raised center of the apartment. There are two separate working areas as well as an in-unit washer dryer.

The dining area can comfortably seat eight and the kitchen is a chef's dream come true. Stainless steel countertops lead to a massive marble backsplash. There is a pair of ovens as well as an over-sized sink. Both the dishwasher and the refrigerator are integrated with wood paneling. The six-burner Thermador range is vented, the window rakes in southern sun and there's a large marble island extending the counter space to accommodate a breakfast bar or prep station.

The bathroom features a deep soaking tub beneath a south-facing window. There are twin sinks and a private toilet closet. Speaking of closets, there are a 9 total: the entryway closet, the linen closet next to the bathroom, the laundry closet, the pantry, the storage closet next to the dining area, three closets within the primary bedroom and one in the second bedroom.

The Northlight is a 7-unit converted factory - there is roof access as well as shared bike storage. There is a service elevator for furniture move-in/out (not for daily use). The residences beam with character and are almost never available to rent. There is a grocery store on the corner, the R train one block down the hill and the F & G trains seven blocks over.

South Slope and Greenwood Heights have food options for every eater. To name a few: Luigi's Pizza on 5th ave where they cover the slice in herbs from their backyard garden, Korzo where they deep fry their hamburgers, Lot 2 where upscale meets cozy and Greenwood Park for a pint or several pints.

Greenwood Cemetery is a few blocks away and Olmsted's best work, Prospect Park, is just up the hill. Finally, this year marks the 15th year that 17th Street will play host to the South Slope Derby, an annual soap box races that runs down the block. Yes, it's awesome.

Heat and hot water are included in the monthly rent.
No smoking permitted in the apartment.
Pets on approval.
