If you have been looking for that super special home with 2 bed & 2 baths with views, space, drama and convenience, look no further! Unit 8A at 144 N 8th street is that rare jewel in the midst of the ordinary. A two-bedroom, two bath home that defies all expectations by offering 10' ceilings on a high-floor with dramatic Manhattan and East River views out of every window, with a spacious West facing balcony spanning over 2/3rd of the length of the apartment, a generous and dramatic living room, dazzling light, and just a block from the subway and all of the best amenities that North Williamsburg has to offer. This is the only building situated between Bedford and Berry Streets that was allowed to build this high, so it is a unique opportunity to enjoy jaw-dropping views with the added convenience of a one block jaunt to the L train. Ahead of its time in terms of interior design and building amenities, it is truly a one-of-a-kind that has no equal.
The apartment itself is a very generous 1,116 SF two bedroom that is anchored by a large living room with extra space for dining and a 179 SF terrace right off of the living room for easy al fresco entertaining. Enter through a generous gallery space with a double width coat closet and then prepare to be amazed by the views & awesome light that awaits you. The large master bedroom offers a large customized walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom is larger than average with great closet space. A real chef's kitchen offers subtlety in design but maximum usability and includes a SubZero fridge and Bertazzoni range. Black matte lacquered solid wood cabinets and honed black Granite slab countertops & backsplash recede into the background offering great storage without dominating the space, giving the spotlight to the views and light, perfect for entertaining.
Two designer bathrooms feature a unique combination of hand-painted ceramic tiles, walnut vanities with excellent storage, and Hansgrohe fixtures. Custom light fixtures throughout are original Rich Brilliant & Willing fixtures and have been emulated, but never fully reproduced, by any other new development. Wide plank oak floors, floor-to-ceiling tilt and turn windows, built-out closet organizers, overhead lighting, Bosch Washer & Dryer and multi-zoned heating cooling are additional features.
This is a no-compromise home with unrivaled amenities. In addition to your private balcony in the sky you can also enjoy a common wild-flower meadow on the second-floor green rooftop, a windowed gym, a resident's lounge, and a full-time doorman. Indoor, underground parking can be had for an additional $400/month.
