Welcome home to this spacious, turn-key two bed, two bath Condo with TWO private outdoor spaces! A stately gate at 9 Montgomery Place welcomes you through a back garden entrance to the well regarded 1 Montgomery Condo. Your entrance is conveniently located on the first floor for ease of living, with a proper entry foyer complete with a well-organized coat closet welcoming you inside the door. Past the entrance, the apartment opens up to a sprawling living space with ample room for a full dining table for eight, multiple seating vignettes, an additional storage closet, and a beautiful built-in desk for all of your work from home needs.
In the living room, a cozy, working, wood burning fireplace is flanked by handsome built-in shelving (deep enough for wood storage and your record collection) on one side, and a very functional built-in cabinet for all of your AV components with floating bookcases above on the other. A recessed nook on the opposite wall provides the perfect place for your oversized couch, where you can enjoy streaming sunlight from the adjacent wall of windows and doors leading to your backyard beyond. The backyard oasis gets lovely sunlight, while still enjoying leafy views from mature bamboo and the surrounding trees. The patio is done in tasteful bluestone pavers, and a recent update includes a built-in grill and counter for your next BBQ, as well as built-in banquettes with storage beneath for ample seating at your next soiree!
Back inside is the large chef's kitchen; simultaneously open to the rest of the home, yet somewhat tucked away with a breakfast bar separating the two spaces. The kitchen features an impressive amount of counter space and a perfect cook's triangle layout, with a Sub-Zero fridge, and Bosch dishwasher, range, and microwave. Custom cabinets abound - including a full pantry - with plenty of built-in goodies, like recycling and lazy susans to maximize space. Tasteful dark granite countertops and attractive marble backsplash complete this dreamy space.
Down the hall is one of two full baths as well as a large laundry closet, with a new, stackable LG Washer and Dryer and enough storage for Costco runs! At the end of the hall is another charming built-in in bookcase, as well as both bedrooms. In the spacious primary suite, you will enjoy room for a king bed, multiple dressers and desk, as well as two built-in closets. The en suite bathroom features a soaking tub, as well as an extra deep built-in medicine cabinet for an impressive amount of storage space. The second bedroom is also well sized and features a large walk-in closet with a full California Closet build out.
As if that were not enough, the apartment also comes with a private front yard featuring large planters and lovely bluestone pavers, as well as an additional private entrance from 8th Avenue. There is also an under-stoop space dedicated to this unit (perfect for bikes, scooters or other outdoor gear or toys), as well as additional storage in the basement including bike storage; stroller parking is allowed in the common hallway. The home has handsome hardwoods, recessed lighting and central air throughout.
Residents of 1 Montgomery enjoy very low common charges, which include a super that takes out garbage and handles light custodial work and maintenance. The incredibly low taxes of $162/mo are abated for one more year, with the full taxes slated to remain an impressively low $192/mo. The building is fully pet friendly and enjoys the expertise of a professional management company.
Of course, the location on Montgomery cannot be beat, as this quiet, one block street, is consistently considered one of the toniest in all of Park Slope. Access to the park is just one block away as are all of the offerings of 7th Avenue, and the famed Farmer's market at Grand Army Plaza is just three blocks from your door. For subway access, the 2/3, B/Q, and F/G trains are all nearby. Currently zoned for PS 321.
