About This Home
As of January 2025Experience Timeless Elegance in a Reimagined Prewar 2 Bedroom Condo with W/D
Step into a world of refined living in this fully renovated prewar condo, where every detail has been carefully curated and every space tells its own story. This 2-bed 1-bath residence, complete with an in-unit washer/dryer and included storage unit, seamlessly blends classic architecture with modern minimalism, creating an inspiring urban retreat.
Bathed in natural light, the expansive open layout features soaring ceilings and dual-exposure windows, enhancing the airy ambiance and showcasing an inspired design with a seamless flow that promotes ease and comfort. With a charming dining alcove, generously-sized bedrooms featuring a reclaimed wood accent wall and hand-painted mountain mural, it's no wonder the lifestyle blog Cup Of Jo called this Brooklyn gem "a cabin-like home worthy of a Wes Anderson movie."
The beautifully appointed bathroom, adorned with classic marble and subway tiles, presents a polished finish. The windowed kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring expansive stone countertops and a striking glass-tiled backsplash. Adding abundant closet space with ample storage, this home masterfully combines functionality with style.
Exceptional Amenities
Built in 1924, the Woodrow Wilson enriches your everyday experience with exceptional amenities. The lush front gardens offer a serene oasis amid the urban hustle leading to a beautifully restored Art Deco lobby to greet you as you arrive home. Full-service features, including a dedicated doorman and a live-in superintendent, provide both convenience and peace of mind. There’s bike storage available for a nominal fee, and let’s not forget the included storage transferrable with the unit for quick access to your extra belongings.
Prime Location
Nestled along historic Eastern Parkway on the border of Crown Heights and Prospect Heights, this prewar treasure just moments away from cultural landmarks such as the Brooklyn Museum and the Botanic Garden, strikes the ideal balance between vibrant city living and serene green spaces. Enjoy easy access to Prospect Park and Park Slope, just a short stroll away, along with nearby express trains (2/3/4/5 lines) that connect you to Manhattan in under 30 minutes. Embrace the energy of Brooklyn while relishing the quick convenience of the city—a truly remarkable place to call home.
Note: There is an additional, on-going capital assessment of $179.13 per month through November 2027.
