Condo :: Common Charges: $482/mo :: Taxes: $25/mo

Overlooking a lush leafy canopy on tree-lined Warren Street, this serene and modern one bedroom condominium has low monthlies, is nicely laid out and completely turnkey. The home is ideally located in Columbia Commons -- a popular amenitized development just moments to the Columbia Street waterfront as well as the best of BoCoCa.

The home is highlighted throughout by gorgeous wide-plank white oak flooring and oversized paned windows. Its generous living room is large enough to easily accommodate a dining area plus a work space and opens to a well equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances and wide quartzite counters for extra serving/dining space.

The bedroom is light and tranquil while the contemporary bathroom features a Grohe rainshower, wood vanity and Aquadis toilet. There is also a convenient in-unit washer/dryer.

With approximately 15 years remaining on the tax abatement and low common charges, monthly expenses are exceptionally low.

Completed in 2011, the elevator building -- which was designed to fit right in with its 19th century surroundings -- has a common roof deck with views of the Statue of Liberty, Manhattan and the Brooklyn Waterfront, landscaped courtyard, fitness center, bike storage, virtual lobby attendant, and parking for lease directly under the building.

Close to fine shopping, dining, Brooklyn Bridge Park, ferries to Governors Island and Manhattan, the 2/3/4/5/F/G/A/C/R subway lines, and all that this waterfront destination has to offer.
