This two-bedroom-plus-office condo at 440 Atlantic Avenue, asking 1.85 million, offers the promise of tranquility and outdoor living in Brooklyn’s bustling Boerum Hill. Situated at the back of the building with no adjoining neighbors is a private outdoor oasis complete with verdant landscaping and an outdoor kitchen.
The sunny, south-facing apartment spans nearly 1,100 square feet. Blonde hardwood floors and floor-to-ceiling glass frame the space.
The home’s 900 square feet of professionally landscaped outdoor space is the real star. Included are custom ipe sectional seating with planters, lighting, storage, a water fountain surrounded by custom ipe and corten steel planters, integrated electrical work, timed uplighting and wall sconces, and a worry-free integrated drip irrigation system. A summer kitchen features a bar, custom ipe cabinetry, marble countertops, a built-in refrigerator, and a custom stone table with a Big Green Egg smoker built in.
The home’s interior kitchen is no slouch either, with an open layout and facing the terrace with glass patio doors. The space is outfitted with a Fischer and Paykel refrigerator and dishwasher, Bosch range, induction cooktop and washer and dryer.
Additional high-tech perks include a Fujitsu four-zone heat and A/C system, custom in-wall wiring for TV, energy-efficient LED lighting and a 5.1 surround sound system (speakers included). A professionally designed home office has a 130-bottle built-in wine cellar that could make working from home a lot more fun.
Two large bedrooms get high-end custom closets and two large baths. The boutique elevator building offers a common roof deck with 360-degree views of the East River (great for fireworks on the 4th of July) and the Statue of Liberty. Individual storage units and bike storage are included as well.
