505 Court Street # 9A

You need to see this striking one-bedroom loft-like condo in one of the most unique buildings in fun and funky Carroll Gardens. This unit’s living room has high ceilings, wrap-around windows with tons of sun, sky and a sweeping view of gloriously gritty Gowanus to the east as well as south all the way to the Verrazano Bridge. The owner has made numerous upgrades to the space including beautifully refinished hardwood floors, a renovated kitchen with cheery Tiffany-blue and white kitchen cabinets and a separate office fashioned out of a large walk-in closet. Keep it as a dedicated workspace or convert it back into a huge closet. Built in the early 20th century as a metal die-cast factory and then became a candy factory, the condominium building features a well-appointed fitness room, a central laundry, a peaceful, landscaped interior courtyard, a live-in super, storage cages, bike room and 24-hour concierge. Located in Carrroll Gardens, the neighborhood nominated by numerous publications, websites and blogs as being in the top 5 in Brooklyn, the building is perfectly situated on bustling Court Street with many well-respected restaurants like Frankies 457, Le Petit Café and Buttermilk Channel just a stone’s throw away. Or take a short jaunt (7-minute walk says Google) to the start of renowned restaurant row on Smith Street. The F/G train is a block and half away on 9th Street.
