$3000 – 2br in a GORGEOUS Brownstone (Bergen 2,3, & 7th Ave. B, Q)

Funny how things work sometimes.  This place is RIGHT across the street from the listing below!  WEIRD!  Sorry… I get excited about stupid shit.

OBSERVE!

- Again, big fan of this landlord’s beautiful old brownstones.  Stoops are always a big plus in my book.

- Pretty dope living space: crazy high ceilings, bay windows, skylights… it’s a charmer.

- Totally doable kitchen.  Not the newest appliances but they work, there’s counter space, and hey look!  A dishwasher!  No way!

- Of the two bedrooms here, this would probably be considered the “2nd.” Situations that benefit from this cute little cabin are: 1. A couple with their buddy from college who’s looking for a place to crash for a while. 2. A couple who needs an adequately sized home office, loves this part of Park Slope, and digs the idea of having 1.5 bathrooms.

- Here’s your 1 (left) .5 (right) bathrooms.  The .5 is attached to the “master” bedroom shown below…

- …here it is!  Situated at the back of the building, quiet, sunny enough for a place for sleeping and it’s attached to it’s own bathroom.  Sweet!

- Utilities are NOT included.  Bummster.

- Pets are presumably COOL!

- Laundry is in the building.

- Available Aug. 1, 2009.

$1650 – 1br Backyard Beauty of the Month (Bergen 2,3 & 7th Ave. B, Q)

Can one person handle this much private open space in Brooklyn?

We seek to answer that question and many more, here, at Twisted Lister:

- I’ve become a fan of this landlord’s buildings.  All seem really solid, nice looking, great locations, and interior work leaning toward restoration than gut renovation.

- Not exactly fit for a Chef de Cuisine but it’s open enough.  I’d recommend a collapsible shelf installed on that wall between the stove and the closet to add more counter space.

- Here’s the reasonably adequate living space.  Behind you is the kitchen (pictured above) and through that door…

- …is the backyard of pure paradise.  Super deep, perfectly shady, pleasantly sunny, and includes a cool furniture set left by the previous tenants (thanks guys!).

- A 1br wouldn’t be complete without a bedroom.  Tiny but I can still see it being perfectly livable. It’s size, from what I’m told, is where most of the complaints come from.  Still a good size for anyone looking to live minimally.

- I caught Park Place on a really pretty afternoon.  The neighboorhood is unique, two blocks from my favorite Jamaican patty/coco bread bakery (Christie’s), it’s convenient to a bunch of trains like the Begen 2,3 and a half block from 7th Ave. B,Q.

- No dogs.  Cats might be cool.

- Laundry in the basement.
