Property Description
Welcome to Apartment 2B at 277 Washington Avenue, a lovely sun-filled pre-war 1 BR coop apartment nestled along one of Clinton Hill's most grand and picturesque tree-lined blocks. Located in the Francine Towers, a six-story Romanesque-style elevator building built circa 1905, this timelessly elegant and special home is a true Brooklyn treasure. Step through the inviting foyer into the French countryside-inspired kitchen, adorned with butcher block countertops, hand-painted tile backsplash, and glass front cabinetry. The kitchen opens into the sun-filled and airy living and dining room, where the high ceilings, original basket-weave hardwood floors, classic picture moldings, and restored vintage brass lighting fixtures create a warm and inviting ambiance. Two arched, west-facing windows provide breathtaking views of the cherry blossoms and the leafy street below and bathe the space in radiant sunlight all afternoon. Down a short hallway, the large bedroom is a serene retreat, comfortably fitting a king-sized bed, a dresser, and a home-office setup. With two more west-facing windows and additional tree-lined views, it provides a peaceful respite from the surrounding city. The large, windowed bathroom is a nod to the building's heritage, with an original cast-iron soaking tub, built-in laundry hamper, and updated black-and-white tiled floors. Francine Towers is a well-maintained, pet friendly cooperative, offering amenities which include a shared laundry room, bike storage, an on-call super, and an exclusive basement storage unit (4x3x7) deeded with the sale. 80% financing permitted. The coop also permits guarantors, subletting, and parental purchases, all with board approval. Perfectly located in the true heart of Clinton Hill, this home is one block from Pratt Institute and is surrounded by wonderful neighborhood restaurants, shops, and cultural hotspots, with both Fort Greene Park and Underwood Park right nearby. One block to the G subway and a few minutes to the A and C lines makes commuting a breeze. Monthly assessments currently in place for capital improvements: $423.45 through Nov. 2025 and $254.83 through Jan. 2026. Don't miss this opportunity to own a special piece of Brooklyn history in one of its most vibrant and beloved neighborhoods. Showings and Open Houses are by appointment only. Please call or email to schedule.
