The neighborhood is in the heart of central Brooklyn, a transit paradise (100%), and a walker's paradise, including daily errands (98%) and very bike-able (84%). Super Foodtown, a sizeable grocery store, is nearby, along with Cumbe Dance School, a USPS post office, Chase, Citibank TD Bank, and the iconic Billy Holiday Theatre at Restoration Plaza. Nearby parks include Saint Andrews Playground and Brower Park, alongside the Brooklyn Children's Museum.

About This Lister

I am a designer and grew up in New York and New Jersey; my partner is from Bremen, Germany. We moved to Alice Court 10 years ago before settling in our current location a few blocks away. We regularly host family, friends, and friend of friends (creative professionals) in our guest room. We have lived and worked in different cities in the US and abroad and know what it’s like to search for housing when you land in a new country.

If you are open to this apartment as a shorter term furnished rental, let's talk. We have designer furniture, premium homeware, bicycles, and cleaning, cooking, and laundry services available.

We look forward to meeting you at the open house!
