The kitchen is made for a chef, with granite countertops, a stainless steel dishwasher and a Sub-Zero double-doored refrigerator. You also have a half bath and the laundry room on this level.

This location combines the historic beauty of the row townhouses and brownstones overflowing from Bedford-Stuyvesant and Prospect Heights to the West and South with the artisinal restaurants and independent shops from Fort Greene to the East. You may never need to use you kitchen with so many local fantastic eateries! Even Manhattanites trek to the nearby Dough (Lafayette Avenue & Franklin), acclaimed in the NYTimes for their yeasty doughnuts. To start your day a bit healthier, try the yogurt and granola at Bedofrd Hill, a great coffeeshop/bar with wireless Internet, the perfect "coffice". Lunch and dinner options range from Pilar Cuban to Nice Pizza (a French spin on the Brooklyn standard) and don't hesitate to grab a glass of wine at the NeroDoro cafe. The Brooklyn Flea, a summer favorite, is held within walking distance or subway stop away on Lafayette Avenue and Vanderbilt, brimming with local crafts and vintage items.

Of course, you can't spend all your time in Brooklyn even if you want to, and fortunately you are situated between two subway stations. The G is closest (4.5 blocks), running through Brooklyn to Queens, and stopping in the trendy Williamsburg with a connection to the L line for Manhattan. You can also reach Manhattan more directly with the C train at Fulton Street, only 7 stops to downtown New York!
