Welcome to BellTel Lofts, the landmark Art Deco condominium conversion in Downtown Brooklyn. Residence 14L offers an expansive 1, 794-square-foot loft with three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, all beneath soaring 10'7 ceilings. This impressive home features a renovated chef's kitchen with marble countertops, a Wolf range, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and abundant cabinetry. Additional highlights include modern bathrooms and bamboo flooring throughout. Upon entering, you're greeted by a spacious entry hall with a laundry/mud room and a large closet. A long gallery hallway leads to the dramatic great room, where the modern kitchen with breakfast bar opens into a generous living and dining area. The living room features expansive custom built-ins and exceptional storage throughout. The primary bedroom comfortably fits a king-size bed and includes a built-in study area, a walk-in closet, and an updated en-suite bathroom with a double-sink vanity. Designed by Ralph Walker in 1928, BellTel Lofts was built as the headquarter office of the New York Telephone Company and was considered Brooklyn's first skyscraper. The building is a significant example of the art-deco style. Voted a landmark in 2004, the building was converted into apartments in 2008 by Beyer Blinder Belle. Residents enjoy amenities including 24-hour concierge service, attended package rooms, two recently upgraded landscaped roof decks, a live-in superintendent, a newly updated gym with state-of-the-art equipment, yoga room, media room with kitchen, children's playroom, bike room, five elevators, valet parking, and storage (both available for a fee). Transportation is exceptionally convenient, with easy access to nearly every subway line just outside your door or within a few minutes (R/Q, B, 2/3, 4/5, A/C, F, and G). Across the street is City Point, home to Trader Joe's, Century 21, Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, and more than 20 food vendors and bars within DeKalb Market Hall. The expansive green space of Fort Greene Park is just a few blocks away. Ideally located at the crossroads of several beloved neighborhoods, Downtown Brooklyn borders Fort Greene, Boerum Hill, and Cobble Hill. Please note: Two of the bedrooms are designated as home-occupancy spaces, but have previously been used as bedrooms.
