Description
A gem of a cottage in Cypress Hills, Brooklyn. A quiet neighborhood near the J Train, with restaurants and bars and clubs in nearby neighborhoods of Ridgewood, Bushwick, and BedStuy. Ground floor features a living room, dining room, eat-in kitchen, half-bathroom, and sunroom. Upstairs: primary bedroom with sunroom-study, baby bedroom (there's a crib in it now), kids' bedroom, full bathroom with tub and handheld shower. Downstairs: washer/dryer and full basement apartment with its own bathroom (just a shower in this one). On top of this there's a huge backyard and garden with a Cypress tree, blueberry bush, peonies, honeysuckle. Possible to arrange to use our car if you'd like. Commute: This house is best suited for those who don't have to go to Manhattan everyday. It's just under an hour to get to downtown NYU area; about an hour and fifteen minutes to get to Columbia. But if you're going to be mostly Brooklyn-based this might be the place for you. We're also only about 25 minutes from the nicest NYC beaches like Jacob Riis and Fort Tilden. Please click on the link to see the original sale listing (we moved in last year). Everything is the same except for a few wall colors and the furniture.

Neighborhood
Cypress Hils
Comments: Cypress Hills is a quiet, leafy neighborhood of single-family homes on the outer edge of Brooklyn. The house includes a separate basement apartment with its own bathroom. You'll go to sleep to the sound of cicadas rather than traffic.
