Don't miss this rare opportunity to live in Brooklyn Height's premiere coop, 2 Montague Terrace. Situated on the most picturesque block in all of Brooklyn, at the corner of Montague Terrace and the world-famous Promenade, this quintessential 1927 pre-war elevator building embodies old war elegance and modern comforts. Enjoy a formal dining room, a separate formal living room, two spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a windowed eat-in kitchen, your very own in-unit laundry, and a gracious entry foyer. Defined by period details including stunning inlaid hardwood floors, a real woodburning fireplace with a hand-carved marble mantle, soaring ceiling heights, oversized windows, and plaster moldings, this is the exceptional home that offers the warmth of original details, gracious living spaces, plus incredible light as a result of its multiple corner exposures with tree-top and partial river views. Enjoy white glove service including a 24-hour doorman, live-in super, part-time porter, two elevators, a large basement storage cage, and Brooklyn Bridge Park, Montague Street amenities and the Promenade right outside your door.
Prepare to be greeted by a formal entryway with multiple closets, perfect for entertaining or just a comfortable landing after the end of a long day. A spacious living room awaits with oversized windows facing West and East, offering a spectacular and sunny view of the East River and the treelined entrance to the promenade and Montague Streets. Adjacent to the living room is a true formal dining room, a lost amenity in modern buildings, affording you the perfect place to entertain, or use as a guest room or home office if that better suits your needs. Across the hall a modern windowed eat-in kitchen includes a wet bar for easy entertaining close to the dining room, and is large enough to easily accommodate a casual daily dining table. Professional and home cooks will be equally impressed by the renovated kitchen that includes upper and lower white cabinetry offering fantastic storage, an oversized Sub-Zero Fridge, Thermador Professional Range, DW, black granite countertops, and a double sink perfectly situated below the window. Place your garbage in the second entrance outside of the kitchen for ease and convenience and for the porter to whisk away at a moment's notice.
The south side of the apartment has been artfully arranged into two spacious bedrooms, each with their own ensuite bathroom, and conveniently set apart from the common entertaining areas. The first bedroom has been outfitted with a wall of built-in bookshelves and custom millwork and makes the perfect home office and/or guest bedroom. A windowed bathroom was recently renovated with a timeless classic palette that includes a white storage vanity, pedestal sink, Nero Marquina marble floors, and a glass enclosed walk-in shower with perfectly suited white and black subway-tiled walls. The Primary suite is a sight to behold with FOUR spacious closets, a wonderful vista overlooking Montague terrace with tree-lined views of the historic homes across the street, and spacious enough to accommodate king-sized furniture. The ensuite bathroom was also recently renovated with a nod to the classics and includes Carrara marble floors, white shiplap walls, vanity and tub surround, and wonderfully aged brass cross handled fixtures.
