About This Property

Perfectly proportioned, high-ceilinged one bedroom loft at an historic Williamsburg crossroad, Broadway and Bedford Ave; across the street from the iconic, lovingly restored Williamsburg Savings Bank, and down the block from Peter Luger's legendary steakhouse, this address is easy to find.

Positioned on the fifth floor of a 19th century cast-iron loft building, facing west over Bedford Avenue, this move-in ready apartment has partial skyline views of Manhattan and life-redeeming afternoon sunlight. A generous living/dining area abounds with original loft details. Not just exposed brick walls, hardwood floors and oversized windows, but, rarity of rarities, an 11.5ft high, tongue-and-groove, paint-free wood ceiling. The open kitchen is fully outfitted with stainless steel appliances and has ample cabinet and counter space. A brick wall, two feet thick, separates the living room area from a hallway that includes a sizable bathroom and a laundry/storage room, complete with full size washer/dryer, on-demand water heater and a Nest controlled central HVAC system. The king-sized bedroom at the end of the hallway is a private and peaceful remove from the rest of the space. This unique home exudes a certain feel of warmth and comfort, not for the glass high-rise crowd. It is solid, spacious, balanced. In a building that's a part of a distinct area of South Williamsburg that is continuing to grow in value and attract attention. This stretch of Broadway features a plethora of new restaurants, bars, entertainment and services and is only a few blocks from the J,M,Z station at Marcy Ave, with easy access to Manhattan. No L-train woes here!

Constructed in 1884, the Smith Gray condominium building was originally the headquarters, retail store and factory for Smith, Gray & Co., the largest manufacturer of ready-made clothing in the late-19th century. In 2002, it was redeveloped and converted into a 40-unit condominium. The building is pet-friendly and features refreshingly air-conditioned common hallways, video intercom, a laundry room on each floor, bike storage, full-time super, and a roof deck with fabulous 360 degree views of Brooklyn, the Williamsburg Bridge and the Manhattan skyline.
