Description

PRIVATE PARKING AND STORAGE IN PRIME PARK LOCATION

1525 Interior SF 59 Exterior SF 46 SF Storage Unit 2 Full-Size Parking Spots

Apartment 5B is located in one of the most popular buildings in the neighborhood: 868 Lorimer Street. This floor-through 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom condo apartment with triple exposures is a rare opportunity on McCarren Park. It spans 1,525 interior square feet and 59 private exterior square feet, PLUS an additional private storage unit and TWO deeded parking spots.

After accessing the building through either of the two entrances on Lorimer Street or Manhattan Avenue, the elevator takes you up to the fifth floor where you share a landing with one other neighbor.

There is room outside your front door for a bench to take off shoes or rest kick-scooters and helmets.

Entering the apartment, an entry hall provides ample space for artwork and includes a coat closet. To the left is the kitchen with custom Italian cabinetry, Jet Mist granite countertops, stainless steel appliances (including wine refrigerator and built-in microwave), and a large island with breakfast bar. Beyond is the open living space with room for both living and dining sets.

A balcony off the living room overlooks the Manhattan skyline and has a gas hookup with grill, water line and lighting.

The first of three bedrooms will be found on this side of the apartment. Its positioning provides flexibility to be used as a bedroom, guest room or home office. On a corner, it has multiple windows with lots of light and views of Manhattan.

Next to this bedroom is the first of the three full bathrooms; this one with a shower.

Heading to the other side of the apartment, two more bedrooms face East with their own en suite bathrooms. The expansive primary suite has double exposures and views of Manhattan from both the bedroom and bathroom. The bedroom can fit a King-sized bed, side tables, dresser, and even an additional seating area or desk.

The walkthrough closet is appointed with custom California Closets for elegant and organized storage. It leads to the windowed, en-suite five fixture primary bathroom with Italian porcelain slab walls and floors, double vanity sinks, deep soaking tub and walk-in steam shower.

The third bedroom also enjoys plentiful space and its own en-suite bathroom with hanging vanity and deep soaking tub. In the hall is an in-unit washer/dryer. Throughout the apartment are 5-inch white oak plank floors, an independently zoned HVAC system, and state-of-the-art energy recovery ventilation unit.

Light shines through this apartment all day with triple exposures East, West, and North.

This unit is being sold with a private tandem parking space with room for two cars, and a private storage unit. All are accessible via elevator straight to the basement.

Located at the nucleus of Greenpoint and Williamsburg, 868 Lorimer on the Park could not be more primely positioned. Your front yard is McCarren Park, and your backyard is full of amazing shops and restaurants along Manhattan Avenue.

The G train is at the end of the block, connecting to the E, M or L, getting you into Manhattan in minutes. The building staff includes a Super (who can help with packages) and porters. A full-time virtual doorman system always ensures access and visibility.

There is also bicycle storage, a multi-media room with Peloton Bike & Tread, children’s playroom, and an open interior courtyard.

Please note these taxes include the primary residence abatement; consult your attorney or accountant.
