Prepare to Swoon.
Penthouse-L at 70 Washington Street is the former home and custom creation of acclaimed interior designer Athena Calderone, founder of the lifestyle brand EyeSwoon. Every inch of this extraordinary DUMBO residence has been thoughtfully designed and impeccably customized - from layout to finishes - resulting in a truly one-of-a-kind Brooklyn home.
Perched atop one of the city's most coveted neighborhoods, this expansive penthouse is the epitome of the Brooklyn lifestyle. But with its massive private terrace and jaw-dropping, panoramic views - you may never want to leave.
Welcome to Penthouse-L, where light, space, and sophistication converge.
This sprawling 2-bedroom home also includes a fully soundproofed office (or third bedroom) and 3 full bathrooms, offering the ideal blend of form and function. Upon entering, you're immediately struck by the stunning views and open sightlines, perfectly framed by oversized windows that flood the space with natural light during the day and reflect the glittering city skyline at night.
At the heart of the home is the oversized great room, a dramatic, sun-drenched space designed for both relaxation and entertaining. The open-concept kitchen features a large island, high-end appliances, and custom finishes, while dark-stained hardwood floors throughout add depth and contrast. Upgraded lighting, integrated speakers, and Venetian plastered walls, elevate the everyday living experience.
Step directly from the great room onto your expansive private terrace, which runs the full length of the apartment. This outdoor oasis is ready to be transformed with your vision - whether it's a lush garden, a serene lounge, or a dining area with some of the best views in all of New York City.
The serene primary suite boasts generous proportions, a custom walk-in closet and dressing area, and a luxurious en-suite bath featuring a deep in-ground soaking tub, double-wide vanity, and a large glass-enclosed shower. The second bedroom also includes a full en-suite bath and has excellent storage apace.
Additional highlights include a guest powder room off the entry foyer, a large laundry room with washer & dryer, and ample storage throughout.
