This stunning 12th-floor apartment features large windows throughout, bathing the space in an abundance of morning sunlight and offering breathtaking views. Originally a Jr4, this unit has been expertly converted into a spacious 2-bedroom sanctuary.

The second bedroom, with a stylish sliding barn door, easily accommodates a queen-size bed. With bedrooms located on opposite wings, privacy is assured as they do not share a wall. Storage is ample, with a large closet at the entrance and two additional closets by the bathroom. The recently renovated hardwood floors, granite kitchen with stainless steel appliances, pass-thru island, and water filtering system add to the luxury. The tiled bathroom is equipped with modern amenities, including an electric bidet toilet seat for added comfort. Perfectly situated just one block from Austin Street, this beautiful co-op offers unparalleled convenience. Enjoy a wide array of restaurants and shopping options at your doorstep. Trader Joe's is just a 4-minute walk away, and the subway station (E, F, M, R trains) right underneath the building makes it only 16 minutes to Manhattan. The LIRR station is a mere 5-minute walk, offering an even faster commute to the city. The apartment is zoned for the highly sought-after PS196 elementary school and is close to PS303, both ranked in the top 10 of NYC elementary schools. The building boasts a 24-hour doorman, central air and heat, washers and dryers on each floor, and a beautiful courtyard playground and sitting area. The co-op is meticulously maintained and financially stable, ensuring peace of mind for residents. Additionally, residents can enjoy valet parking inside the building for only $200 per month.
