$1500 – 1br, Fast and Loose (Prospect Ave. M,R)

July 21, 2009 · Leave a Comment

South Slope is still the mild mild west but there’s always the random troubadour who’s dying to get in on one of these slightly run down, relatively cental, quite spacious places.

Come hither…

- Pretty giant-sized kitchen/living space.  Guess those high Cylon-eye windows are so you can forget about the squalor that is 4th Ave.

- Kitchen and yes, a dishwasher.  Tada!

- A sliver of a bathroom but it’s all ready for you to clean it, Mr. Swiffer!

- I found this bedroom rather difficult to photograph because it’s such a long and somewhat narrow room.  So there’s the first angle…

- …and there’s the other.

- Utilities are NOT included.  Lame.

- Laundry is on the corner.  Not too bad.

- Pets gotta be cool… how could the landlord deny you the companionship of a pet.

- Available Aug. 1, 2009.

Give me a little dose of your comment juice, will ya!?

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

July 21, 2009 · Leave a Comment

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.

- Map here.

Comment now… or later.

$2400 – 2br Doin’ the Ben Franklin (Greenpoint Ave. G)

May 7, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Knock knock.

Who’s there?

Me, ding dong!! I’m your downstairs neighbor!  It’s the building I live in and there’s an apartment available up there on the 3rd floor!!!

Franklin - living by you.

- Lalala living room… ahh….  Pretty ridiculous amount of space to sprawl.

Do you know me?  If not, it’s cool… this is still a free country and you can live wherever you want.

- KA-RAAZZZY kitchen.  Newish and still nice.

It’s just that I do a fair amount of charcoal grilling, gardening, and every once in a while, I do a bit of sunbathing.

- Plop, plop.  Whiz, whiz… oh, what a relief it is… to have a decent bathroom.  We have the ooogly brown cabinet where you get the nice white.  (jel)

Not just the kind of sunbathing where you fish out on a towel for an hour… this involves a 12′ inflatable pool, a sci-fi novel, and a purple Speedo.

- This is how the left and right bedrooms are laid out.  The one on the right kind of turns a mini corner and has the duel window action.

Why should you care?  Because your potential new bedroom overlooks me in all my glory… the howling… the gurgling… the borrowing of salt… the reggae… the uninhibited and often unannounced spontaneous freak-outs that happen semi-regularly?

- Heat and hot water NOT included (sux).

- Available May 15th, 2009.

- Map here.

Comment!  Tell me your thoughts on speedos and if you want this place.
