About 281 20th St #2

HomeApartments in New YorkGreenwood Heights 281 20th St #2, Brooklyn, NY 11215, USA

The largest 3 bedroom you'll find! With its high ceilings, extra large bedrooms, expansive living and dining areas and open chef's kitchen, nothing was left out with this one. The master bedroom can accommodate a king sized bedroom set easily and the other two bedrooms can easily accommodate queen sized sets, unlike many Brooklyn “3 bedrooms” where one or two of the bedrooms is a large closet. There is also a private outdoor deck space, 6'×20', for grilling and enjoying the warm weather. Why pay maybe twice as much for a 3 bedroom with smaller rooms just slightly North of this when this is such a thriving neighborhood.
