Brooklyn Heights Duplex Penthouse for Sale

Stunning 1-Bedroom, 1. 5-Bathroom Duplex
Towering high above the city, this stunning 1-bedroom, 1. 5-bathroom duplex is bathed in natural light from dramatic, steel-framed south-facing windows. Breathtaking views stretch across Brooklyn Heights and Downtown Brooklyn, while 10 and 12-foot-high ceilings elevate the sense of space throughout.

Graceful Layout and Private Entrances
The graceful layout unfolds across two levels, each with its own private entrance and bathroom, offering a rare blend of openness and privacy. This penthouse is ideal for entertaining, remote work, or creative pursuits. Light pours into the living and bedroom spaces, setting the stage for quiet mornings, inspired workdays, and intimate evenings.

Spacious Primary Bedroom and Walk-In Closet
Just off the king-size primary bedroom is a well-designed walk-in closet with two entrances and an extra closet within the closet! This offers an abundance of well-organized storage and seamlessly blends functionality with elegance to create a space that is both practical and luxurious. It's large and light enough to use as a home office too.

Renovated Home with Modern Features
The thoughtfully renovated home is about 800 square feet, with beautiful hardwood floors throughout. The newly skim-coated, classically beamed high ceilings and excellent light create an expansive feeling of openness, making the apartment feel spacious. Other features include a galley kitchen with stainless steel appliances, lots of cabinets, and an open pass-through so you can see the sky while you prep food on the granite countertops. Next to the kitchen is a large pantry and coat closet at the entry.

Prime Location in Brooklyn Heights
Located at the dynamic crossroads of Brooklyn Heights and Downtown Brooklyn, this residence is not only a peaceful retreat in the sky but also a gateway to some of the borough's most beloved shops, restaurants, and cultural landmarks.

Full-Service Co-op with Exceptional Amenities
