Stanton on Sixth, 695 Sixth Avenue, #2B

This lovely apartment is located in Stanton on Sixth, a recently constructed elevator condo building on a tree-lined block in the heart of serene Greenwood Heights with a chic lobby, well-equipped fitness center, bike storage ($10 per month), and a furnished roof deck with barbecue grills and sweeping views of Lower Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the harbor.

Welcome home to #2B, a tranquil two-bedroom, two-bathroom luxury condo with private parking. Measuring in excess of 1,000 square feet, the comfortable floor plan features an open-concept living/dining room that overlooks the treelined avenue through a floor-to-ceiling window, and a gourmet kitchen that is equipped with Caesarstone countertops, custom walnut cabinetry, high-end appliances that include a Bertazzoni range, built-in microwave, paneled Viking dishwasher, and paneled Liebherr refrigerator, Porcelanosa tile backsplash, and a breakfast counter. The king-size primary suite is an oasis with dual closets, including a walk-in, and a luxurious ensuite bath that is outfitted with an oversized vanity, soaking tub, separate glassed-in shower, and Duravit toilet. There is a spacious second bedroom with a large closet, as well as a second bath with a floating vanity and a soaking tub, and a linen closet in the hallway. Wide plank hardwood floors, tall ceilings, and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that bathe the space in sunlight are found throughout. Modern conveniences include an in-unit Bosch washer/dryer, zoned central heating and cooling for maximum efficiency and comfort, and recessed lighting. Best of all, deeded off-street parking is included to eliminate the need to repeatedly circle the block. ($39 monthly parking charges included in tax figure.)

Those who are blessed with a green thumb may wish to maintain a garden on the roof or volunteer at one of the neighborhood community gardens. Acres of green space can be found at nearby historic Greenwood Cemetery, and bucolic Prospect Park is also accessible. Pizza aficionados will be delighted to find Giuseppina's and Luigi's within a stone's throw. Other notable eateries include Battle Hill Tavern, Races Argentinas, Panchita's Place, and South Slope Ramen, and the hip bar scene includes Sea Witch, Greenwood Park, and Freddy's Bar where you can listen to live music. Grab a coffee and a delectable pastry at Southside Coffee, Roots Cafe, or Baked in Brooklyn, on the weekends and stroll the vibrant neighborhood. Being a pet-friendly building, South Slope Dog Run is just around the corner, as is Slope Park Playground. Commuting is a cinch with the R train and bus service in close proximity along with easy highway access.
