Original pre-war details give this Brooklyn Heights co-op its undeniable charm, but the price tag is pretty appealing too. For $540,000—well below the neighborhood average—this one-bedroom starter home at 55 Hicks Street is well maintained with a recently renovated kitchen and bathroom. Being on the fourth floor, the walk-up situation is a bit of a drag but for someone, it’ll be well worth the effort. The elegant home features some of our favorite details, like picture frame moldings in the living room and a restored tin ceiling in the kitchen.
The east-facing living room gets plenty of light and treetop views (a plus to being on an upper floor). The apartment has generous windows throughout, including in the kitchen, which comes equipped with an eat-in bar, farmhouse sink, butcher block counters, and double-stacked cabinets for plenty of storage.
The bedroom is big enough for a queen bed and has two closets with additional overhead storage, according to the listing. The bathroom boasts Carrara marble herringbone and subway tiles, a glass-enclosed walk-in shower, and modern open shelving.
There are laundry facilities in the building and extra storage space and bike racks in the basement. Located near the Promenade and Brooklyn Bridge Park, the residence is close to the A, C, 2, 3, 4, 5, R, and F trains. Pets and pied-a-terre may be allowed, pending board approval. Maintenance fees are $815 a month.
