Sun In The Sky Brooklyn, New York

Property Description

It's hard to adequately describe a near-perfect townhouse like this in Clinton Hill. Sun In The Sky is the sort of home that would excel regardless of its location, thanks to its functionality, modern finishes, light-filled rooms, and glorious outdoor space. With double-height ceilings and grand bedrooms, the open space (set across two levels) will leave families or groups of friends feeling spoiled for choice on where to lounge around. Not to mention, the garden out back might be the perfect spot to settle down with a glass of wine after a day out exploring. It comes complete with a private deck and barbecue, a fire pit, garden furniture for alfresco dining, and a large outdoor corner sofa for sundown drinks come evening. Back inside, it's a picture of typical red brick walls and ample living space to relax as a group. We really love the idea of knocking up group meals in the modern kitchen to enjoy around the sociable breakfast bar or rustic wooden table with Eames-style chairs. Through to the bedrooms, where you'll find bright and colourful decor – each room has been designed with a different personality. One room also features a study area for those looking to convert a home office during their stay. Step outside of the building, and be right in the heart of trendy Bed-Stuy, filled with cosy bars, indie boutiques and a thriving coffee house culture. The closest bus, which takes you to the heart of Downtown Brooklyn and Brooklyn Heights, is a few steps away, while it's a twenty-minute cab ride to the iconic Brooklyn Bridge for those on a sightseeing day. There's also the Bedford-Nostrand Avs metro Station, only a six-minute walk from home, connecting you to the entire city of New York.

Home truths:
*There's no lift in this building, so you will need to climb ten steps from the street up to the front door, another thirty-three up to top floor, and ten from kitchen terrace down to the garden, so it may not be suitable for those with limited mobility
*The fourth bedroom is considerably smaller in size and suited to children
*If you're bringing kids along, the host provides children's books and toys
*Street cats occasionally pass through the outdoor space and sun themselves a bit in the garden
