    What's special

    Well positioned at the apex of Downtown Brooklyn, Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill and Boerum Hill, you'll find this Awe-inspiring corner 2 bedroom +, 1.5 bath apartment with an office/guest loft, in a much coveted and historical, full-service cooperative! This stunning architect-created gem at 96 Schermerhorn Street boasts generous open, airy living space highlighted by soaring 14'4" ceilings, massive windows, extensive custom storage and chic design elements at every turn. The grandeur of the voluminous living room is perfect for both relaxing as well as entertaining with gorgeous hardwood floors throughout the home with the tall 8" windows inviting an abundance of light. Flanking the open dining area is a built-in bar for entertaining perfection and a handsome built-in counter that can double as a desk. Adjacent is a convenient powder room adorned with Kohler fixtures. The nearby kitchen is well designed with custom Carrara marble countertops, subway tiled backsplashes, and premium stainless-steel appliances by Jenn-Air, Liebherr and Bosch. The smart layout allows everything to be at the chef's fingertips along with plentiful cabinetry that rises with the escalating ceilings. The additional loft space is accessed by ascending to the 6'8" custom-designed area which can serve as a home office, guest space, studio, etc. Access to the sleeping quarters within their own private 'wing'. The grandiose primary bedroom has extensive closets and impressive storage space occupying an entire wall from floor to ceiling. The 2nd bedroom is equally bright and inviting; plus, there's a beautifully renovated full hall bath graced by a custom Corian countertop and backsplash with integrated sink, and an oversized shower behind glass. Built in 1928 as the main building of St. John's College, the 13-story building was converted to an impeccably maintained co-op in 1981. Elevating the lifestyle is an elegant lobby, multiple elevators, a full-time doorman, porter, live-in super, 24-hour laundry room on the 2nd floor, and bike storage. A spectacular common roof deck tops the allure presenting amazing views of Downtown Manhattan, the Statue of Liberty, and New York Harbor.
