About This Home
As of June 2022RARE and Back on Market, 45 Martense Street #4A is the largest renovated one bedroom in Brooklyn priced under $600,000 and it is in the Jewel of Flatbush, 45 Martense Street, a prime Flatbush pre-war co-op near dining, excellent transportation and Prospect Park. There is no property with the elegant finishes and size of 45 Martense Street #4A and with all of its pre-war Art Deco charm and amenities; with two exposures, 45 Martense Street #4A has the light, layout and space that are must-haves in the competitive Brooklyn market.
The recently renovated Art Deco lobby of 45 Martense Street welcomes you to the newly replaced elevator up to the fourth floor of the co-op where 45 Martense Street #4A unfolds in all its Art Deco splendor: a double-length foyer outfitted with a handsome bookshelf and a huge coat/utility closet leads to an Art Deco arabesque arch opening onto the heart of the home, the recently renovated, windowed eat-in kitchen. Designed by the owner who is a well-regarded Home Chef, the 10' X 13' eat-in kitchen is outfitted with new stainless steel full-size appliances, new white oak floor, new expansive quartz countertops, new glass-tile backsplash and new fixtures. The kitchen is exceptionally large with room for dining and for a pantry or cart. Graced with two arched pass-throughs, the kitchen also opens onto an enormous corner Living/Dining Room with room for couches, club chairs, coffee- and side-tables along with a dining table that seats eight. Updated lighting includes a rare overhead chandelier fixture, wall sconces and dimmers on all switches. The hallway has a large linen closet and leads to the residential suite. The spa-like windowed bathroom is a wonder of contemporary finishes and space including a newly renovated glass shower stall, large vanity with Carrara marble top, Kohle wall-mounted toilet, @RestorationHardware extendable mirror and towel racks and new white oak floors. The double-windowed bedroom is large enough for a king-size bed, side tables and double office or nursery and has a rare, lighted walk-in closet outfitted by @CaliforniaClosets with dresser drawers, hanging rods, shelves and double hamper.
With all these upgrades and more (the entire apartment is complimented by excellent condition, original parquet floors dating to 1937), 45 Martense Street #4A is more than an apartment; it is a warm, spacious home that is virtually impossible to reproduce in Brooklyn.
