We’re loving how this $1,050,000 duplex mixes Scandinavian vibes with Brooklyn cool to create a very stylish yet understated home. The one-bedroom apartment at 199 Humboldt Street in East Williamsburg has a duplex layout, allowing for convenient separation of living and sleeping spaces. It also boasts two terraces for optimal outdoor space.
Throughout the 1,077-square-foot home are high ceilings, light hardwood floors, and natural wood doors.
Located off the entrance, the kitchen has stainless steel appliances, enough room for a dining table, and cool, geometric cabinetry.
Down a narrow hall, off which is a huge closet and the full bathroom, is the living room, where you’ll find even more closet space.
Through floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors, the living room opens to the two-part upper terrace. Just outside the door is a cozy seating area set against a white-washed brick wall and with a wooden pergola atop. The rear garden is more spacious with lovely landscaping and a trellis wall.
Downstairs, there’s a half bath, laundry closet, and a small bonus room that could be used as a second bedroom, home office, or den.
The master bedroom has a large closet and, according to the listing, opens “to a sunken and secluded patio oasis.”
Built in 2006, the boutique condo has only eight units and offers a shared roof deck. It’s just one block from the L train at Montrose Avenue and a quick walk to the J/M trains at Lorimer Street. As the listing explains, “The condo financials are very strong, common charges will be lowered in 2024 to about $600 and the 421A tax abatement is in place until 2029.”
