Description
The eight-story Queen Anne-style Montague built in 1885 by developer William Ziegler and the Parfitt Brothers architects is one of the most photographed buildings in Brooklyn Heights. It sits on a robust granite base and features a rich red-brick front with extensive deep-red terra cotta ornamentation, especially near the top, where a figure peers down from the gable. An 1891 article in The Real Estate Record and Guide called the Montague the finest of its kind in Brooklyn. This sunny second floor apartment in an elevator co-op with basement laundry and common roofdeck offers the beauty of a nearly blank canvas! Here is an excellent opportunity to transform an 1100 square foot loft-like space with exposed brick walls, 10.5ft ceilings and hardwood floors into the home of your dreams. Currently showing as a two bed, one bath home with living room, bay-window nook, kitchen, dining room and fire place, it can easily convert to a three bed, two bath home and still leave plenty of space to relax or entertain. Let your imagination go wild! Ideally located on Montague Street, you have everything you could need within a few blocks. Including eight major subway lines, the world famous Brooklyn Heights Promenade just two blocks away and easy access to the new Brooklyn Bridge Park.
