Brooklyn (Clinton Hill), NY, 11238 | $1,799,000

Welcome to 531 Vanderbilt #7C! At the crossroads of Prospect Heights, Clinton Hill, and Fort Greene, this expansive duplex two-bedroom, two-bath PENTHOUSE offers a superb layout, a prime location, and over 500 square feet of PRIVATE OUTDOOR SPACE.

Set in a 18-unit boutique elevator condo, the upper level of the apartment occupies the entire top floor. This level features an open living/dining area with floor-to-ceiling windows, a well-appointed kitchen, a spacious bedroom, a full bath, and direct access to both outdoor spaces. The lower level (6th floor) is dedicated to the enormous primary suite and has its own private entrance.

With eastern and western exposures and wide-open views through enormous windows, the apartment is bathed in natural light throughout the day.   The open living space offers plenty of room for separate living and dining areas and feels especially expansive with the floor to ceiling windows and the doors leading outside. The large kitchen features custom cabinetry, granite counters, stainless steel appliances (a Bosch dishwasher, Fischer & Paykel fridge, and Bertazonni oven), a wine fridge and generous work and storage space.  

Flanking the living room, each outdoor space has its own character. To the west, enjoy sweeping views down Vanderbilt Avenue toward Prospect Park from a relaxed lounge area with a pergola and built-in counter seating-perfect for soaking up the afternoon sun. To the east, overlooking Clinton Hill, a terrace that runs the entire length of the apartment is lined with turf and planters offering space to dine, unwind, and enjoy sun or shade as you choose.

The spacious upper-level bedroom includes a deep closet and offers direct access to the terrace. The windowed full bath has radiant heated floors, a deep soaking tub, and clean, modern finishes.

A wood-slat accent wall frames the staircase leading down to the king-sized primary suite. Peaceful and quiet, this lovely room enjoys serene eastern views of the landmarked Church of St. Luke and St. Matthew. With ample room for plenty of furniture, including a home office area, the suite also features two closets and a luxurious en-suite bath with double vanities, a double shower, radiant heated floors, and floor-to-ceiling tile.

Additional highlights of the apartment include an in-unit Electrolux stacked washer/dryer, double-glazed windows for energy efficiency, white oak herringbone floors and high ceilings. Common storage and bike storage can be found in the building's basement.

Perfectly located on Vanderbilt Avenue, one block from Fulton Street and one block from the beginning of the Vanderbilt Avenue business district in Prospect Heights, the apartment is surrounded by fantastic stores, restaurants, bars and cafes. Prospect Park lies straight south, the C train at Clinton Street is less than one block away and Atlantic Terminal (with access to 2, 3, 4, 5, B, D, N, R & Q trains) is in easy reach. The location simply could not be more central. Pet friendly too!
