Brooklyn (Williamsburg), NY, 11249 | $20,000

Available furnished at $23, 000 per month. Short-term considered.

Welcome to the Penthouse at 79 South 2nd Street. Keyed elevator landing into a private foyer, and from the moment you arrive, the scale of this home makes itself known. Nearly 2, 000 square feet across two levels, four distinct outdoor spaces, and a roof deck that is entirely your own. This is one of the most complete penthouse layouts in Williamsburg, and it shows in every detail.

The experience begins on the main living level, where double-height ceilings and warm wide-plank hardwood floors create an immediate sense of openness and volume. And then there is the staircase. Matte black, fully sculptural, designed in a continuous spiral that winds from floor to floor with a blade-thin handrail that cuts through the center like a work of art. Shot from above it reads like an architectural drawing. Lived in, it is the kind of detail that stops people mid-sentence during a showing. Oversized double-height rear windows flood the room with natural light throughout the day and open directly onto a balcony with open views. Warm and intentional finishes pair with clean modern lines and frameless doors throughout for a distinctly architectural feel.

The kitchen runs the full width of the great room with a marble waterfall island, Wolf gas range, integrated wine refrigerator, and custom cabinetry built for someone who actually cooks. Two generously sized bedrooms, each with south-facing casement windows and great closet space, and a full bath with a deep soaking tub complete this floor.

Both levels have their own keyed elevator entrance and dedicated foyer. The entire upper level is devoted to the primary suite, arriving from your own private landing or up that staircase. Floor-to-ceiling windows, a walk-in closet with custom built-ins, and a balcony off the bedroom itself. The en-suite bath is finished in marble throughout with a double vanity, oversized glass-enclosed shower, and a freestanding soaking tub. Also on this level, a south-facing terrace spanning nearly 500 square feet. Above it all, a private roof deck with sweeping views over the Williamsburg skyline and waterfront.

And then there is the location. You are two blocks from the waterfront, from that stretch of East River where the Manhattan skyline sits across the water like a painting you never get tired of. Sunday in Brooklyn and 12 Chairs is around the corner. Lilia is and other michelin star restaurants are all a quick walk. You have the weekend farmers market, the ferry, the L and the J and the M, all of it within reach. This penthouse sits right at the center of all of it.
