Brooklyn (Fort Hamilton), NY, 11209 | $417,000

Apartment E4 features high ceilings, eight windows with two exposures, and a generously proportioned floor plan with four closets to ensure a lifestyle of gracious living. The sizeable entry foyer functions as a dining room or home office, opening onto the original 1940's kitchen with a

new GE stainless steel gas range and refrigerator. The cast iron white enamel sink allows room for a dishwasher, and the food prep area leads to a bright breakfast room, with two exposures. With board approval, this area can function as a second bedroom. Many shareholders opt to use this space as an additional home office.

Serene and private, located in the rear of the apartment, is the bedroom, also with two sunny exposures and a closet. A small hallway leads to the windowed bathroom with charming original tile, a deep soaking tub and separate stall shower. Just outside the bathroom is a linen closet.

The Normandy welcomes pets and allows subletting after two years of residence, in addition to permitting parents to buy with employed adult offspring. The magnificent lobby and renovated hallways are pristine, and a new elevator will be installed this summer, for which there is an assessment. New exterior sidewalks and landscaping welcome visitors and an updated intercom system and mailroom, including secure package area, add even more modern function to the Normandy's timeless charm. While there is ample street parking, wait listed garage spaces are available, as well as storage units and a bike room. The basement laundry room has been renovated and is monitored by CCTV. The Building's rear entrance is handicap accessible via a gently sloping ramp.

Both The Normandy and Brittany have recently completed LL 11 facade work and new roofs. A long-time live-in super is assisted by two porters. Exterior and interior security cameras are always monitored, the X27 Express Bus to Manhattan stops one-half block from the entry to the building, and the R Subway line is a short three blocks away. Shopping, restaurants, farmers' market, banks and other services are nearby.
