Olive St & Powers St #1BB · Apartment for Rent

Beautiful private ground floor 1br in the back building of a prewar house in East Williamsburg, with access to both a sunny shared courtyard and private back yard / garden shaded by a cherry tree. The total effect is charming and comfortable, like a cottage in the city. The unit features a well-sized kitchen, brightly lit from the courtyard sunlight, with range, oven, sink, and space for a dining table. The bathroom is a split layout at one side. In the next room over, there is space for a sitting room looking out on the garden, as well as a back entrance. Returning through the kitchen into the front room, there is flexible space for study, a home office, or living room—the current tenants have it set up as a bedroom, with the last, larger and more private room reserved as a child’s bedroom. Although like most Brooklyn carriage-house apartments, the space is more compact than other layouts, the large amount of outdoor space and efficient floorplan make for a very comfortable living experience. The location is great, on a quiet side street only two blocks from the Grand Street L train, and three blocks from Cooper Park which offers tennis courts, a skate park, basketball courts, playgrounds, and exercise equipment.

Video Tour available at the end of the photos or at this link: https :// youtu .be/ dV17rL97N2c This is a broker fee apartment. NY State allows brokers to charge up to a 15% fee (just under 2 months); we charge the minimum of 1 month. We know that finding an apartment in NYC can be stressful and we try to make it as affordable as possible. More than 50% of apartment listings in NYC carry a broker fee, so it is a good idea to prepare yourself, we recommend that you decide on a budget for your apartment and factor the fee into your moving cost, so if your budget is $2000 a month, you might be looking at $1600-1800 a month with a broker fee, or $2000 a month with no fee.  We hope this helps simplify your rental search, and look forwards to helping you find a place that fits your taste and budget.
