NEW! One of a kind 1650+ square foot duplex condo with over 1000 square feet of outdoor space located at the center of Prospect Heights. 1R, a convertible 3 bedroom/2 bath unit, is one of eight in a boutique condo building completed in 2011 with unbelievably low common charges ($553 per month) and zero dollars in real estate taxes abated for 20+ more years. High ceilings with walls of glass provide natural light all day and look directly into three 20 foot walls of ivy, fountains and other foliage from your private covered porch, deck and artfully landscaped courtyard. Birds, butterflies, flowers all spring, summer and fall; it's like living in your own rain forest. The unit is configured with two bedrooms, one bath and a laundry closet on the full-height lower level, and an open plan living and dining area -- large enough to accommodate at third bedroom -- on the upper level, which includes a second large bath of its own. A newly expanded and renovated kitchen is outfitted with a six-burner Wolf cook top and oven, Viking refrigerator and Miele dishwasher and finished with Composit custom wooden cabinetry and vein-cut quartzite  counters. Aged maple hardwood strip floors below and custom lighting above. The award-wining landscaped courtyard, featured online on Houzz.com (search for Modern Brooklyn Garden), is unique in every way. Smart, modern design with waterfalls and koi ponds, a fire pit, Ipe deck flooring and custom teak furniture. Designed to bloom year-round, the foliage is young enough to add your own touch if you'd like. The building is located three blocks to the B, Q, 2 and 3 express trains and is surrounded by some of Brooklyn's best new restaurants, cafes, bars and retail. It is walking distance in one direction to the Barclays Center and the rapidly expanding BAM Cultural District, soon to surpass Lincoln Center in its size and scope, and walking distance to Prospect Park in the other direction. This is new Brooklyn at its best.
