1522 Putnam Ave Unit 1 Brooklyn, NY 11237

This apartment satisfies the fantasy of living in true antiquity. Preserved in time, this Arts and Crafts Period / Aesthetic Movement masterwork looks more or less the way it did when it was built around 1900, with its original wainscoting, stained glass, tiled inlay, coffered ceilings, and plenty of built-in cabinetry for dish ware, pantry and clothing. Key to its versatile layout is the apartment's internal hallway which allows private or shared entry to every room, meaning that this is not a railroad!

No guarantors will be accepted, no pets will be allowed, and due to allergies, no smoking of any kind is allowed in the apartment or on the property.

Two and half blocks from the Myrtle-Wyckoff station on the L train, 1522 Putnam is in the middle of a very quiet tree-lined block, and is a 20 minute commute from Union Square in lower Manhattan. One block away, around the corner is one of Brooklyn's largest grocery stores, Food Bazaar, a treasure known to locals for its variety of fresh fish, meats, imported fruits and vegetables, and international foods.

Heat and hot water are included with the rent, and other utilities are the tenant's responsibility. Heat is provided by forced hot air. There is secure bike parking on the property. All showings are by appointment only, and there is no broker fee.
