Classic Brownstone Garden Apartment

Classic Brownstone Garden Apartment is on the garden level. The living room, has queen size sofa beds each very comfortable.
The open plan kitchen with bar stools for entertaining.
The bedroom looks onto the garden with Queen size bed ( English king) . double closets with mirrors, side table, reading chair, and lamp. Extra linen and quilts for chilly nights.
The bathroom has a full bath/shower.
You can use the laundry room with full size washer, and full size dryer.

The garden is nice to sit outside with your coffee whenever you choose.

The Neighbourhood: You will find lots to see and do, if you like the old, mixed in with the new.
The area has changed over the last 20 years, but if you look closely, some of our period homes have remained the same with stunning 1900 details, and charm.
Many of our locals have lived in the neighbourhood for most of their lives, and take a tremendous amount of pride.

Wonderful things are coming, from restaurants, Grandchamps, my favorite spot for breakfast/coffee/lunch, and dinner, nice and local, just a 5 minute walk. Popping up, even more quaint eatery's Chez Oscar's, French Bistro, Trad room, Asian ingredients perfect spot, and more wine bars, on Malcom X, all within walking distance. short trip on the A train...Yes the 'A' Train travelled by Duke Ellington, and not forgetting Lena Horn who would belt her tune in her local church community.

Transportation: With a 10 minute walk towards Fulton Street/ Utica Avenue you will find the local subway A or C train. Or just a short walk you have the J or Z train at Gates Ave heading into the city with the over ground view of the city. Which can be refreshing for those that want a glimpse of NY.
The 'A' train (Express) skips all local stations into Manhattan takes 12 minutes to Lower Manhattan - World Trade Center, Wall Street, Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Staten Island Ferry.
If you stay on the train, you may head to Midtown - 34th street, 5th Avenue, 42nd Street. All this is another 10 minutes. on the same express a train.
Of course if you grab a map, you can discover much much more.
This is the city that never sleeps after all!!

Lovely Garden Apartment!
Don't pass this property up! This garden apartment was super cozy. The property was clean, tidy and well maintained and in a cute community. Many restaurants, shops and bars just a short walk away. Everything that was needed was included. The owners of the property were very communicative and made the check in and out process a breeze.

Wonderful stay!
The property was exactly as described.. clean and very cute! It had everything you needed. Judith was a sweetheart. The free parking on the street was an awesome perk. You can walk about 10 or so minutes to a couple different subways that will take you to any part of NY. Judith hooked us up with a driver; David, that was simply the best! We appreciated him so much picking us up all over for the weekend since my 76 year old Mother had a hard time walking around. Overall we had a wonderful time!!

Very nice stay in Brooklyn
I stayed in this cosy flat around Xmas time, first with my mom and then with three friends and a 3.5 year old kid. The flat is marvelous and very comfortable and even with 5 adults and an energetic child there is enough space for everyone. Judith and her husband were wonderful hosts and also very flexible when it came to changing the size of our group. I found the information Judith provided in advance very accurate and we also got useful information upon arrival about grocery stores, transportation etc. It takes 20-30 minutes to lower Manhattan on subway. I would highly recommend this apartment.

staying with friends with kids
I stayed in this amazing flat first for a few days with my mother and then three friends and one kid joined us for the last three days. The flat is spacious and can easily accommodate 6 people. Judith and her husband were wonderful hosts, also very flexible with regards to the changes in the amount of people staying in the flat. The flat is some 10-15 minutes walk from the subway so it is pretty easy to reach downtown Brooklyn or Manhattan and it is also quite close to JFK (the airport we used). I would recommend this flat, in particular to larger groups.

Property was as described. Nice house that met all our needs.
We had a great time here! Judith introduced herself to us and gave us information about the subway, restaurants, etc. She was quick to respond to any questions and was a lovely lady. We had everything that we needed at the house. The kitchen was well stocked. The area was safe. We walked to and from the subway both in the day and at night. We never felt uncomfortable doing so. We were able to access the subway to get us where we needed to go. My daughters were on the sofa beds, which were a little saggy, but that is pretty standard for that type of bed. We had nice AC which was great with the heat and were able to park our car in front of the house. We would stay here again!

A lovely stay!
My husband I stayed here for our honeymoon in March 2012. We had a wonderful week in New York City! The apartment was large and very clean. It was well lit and had everything we needed (plus more) to make our stay perfect! Judith was a wonderful host. She was quick to respond on the initial contact and answered my many questions during booking. She greeted us upon arrival and gave us lots of tips on the area including how to use the subway system. The apartment is about a 10 minute walk away from the closest subway station. From there, it is a short subway ride into Manhattan on the express train. The trip home at night is a little bit longer. We were a little unsure about walking home late at night, but it was fine and by the end of the week, we felt very safe. This apartment was great and we would recommend it to others!

Comfortable stay
Judith is from the UK which was a pleasant surprise and made me feel more at home. The apartment is spacious and the absolute bonus is the huge washing machine and tumble dryer. I was glad to find a tea towel for drying dishes and spare towels/sheets in the cupboard so I didn’t have to bother Judith for spares during my stay. Being used to little things at home, I did miss having a Pyrex jug to microwave my milk in for cocoa in the morning and I couldn’t find a cheese grater, although there may have been one. I also prefer to have a choice of different sized baking trays, as then you can cook a variety of things at once, maybe a pizza tray too. There was a glass lasagne style one and another large flat one. So an idea. I also like to have soap in the kitchen to wash my hands before and during preparing food for convenience and hygiene. Judith explained that she used the bathroom for this in her home. It would be a nice touch for the future if i am making recommendations. I enjoyed the food preparation space, often city apartments have tiny kitchens with hardly any work surface. I am fussy with pillows so brought my own but my husband didn’t have a problem with them. The bed was comfortable, not hard, but it’s a difficult one to judge for other upcoming guests as there is nothing like your own bed of course. The shower is powerful enough, large shower head and no problem with hot water. I loved having the space of just my husband and I in this apartment but the front room is large, so those who don’t mind sharing their space, there is enough room for the guests using the sofa beds. You can hear the family upstairs walking only but Judith explained this and personally I prefer to hear the walking noise than be the one making it!! There was no noise from music (or talking) which does bother me so it was really nice to have the quiet. The neighbourhood is fairly quiet too, being in the city obviously odd sirens, but you expect that. The A train is two blocks down and then about six or so across, about 8-10 mins walk, but I walk quite fast. Key Foods is two blocks down and about four across. If you want to feel relaxed then this place is ideal. Judith was really kind the day we left and told me just to relax and not stress myself with rushing. This is the type of host you need!! It was lovely to chat with Judith as though I had known her before my stay!! So 5 *+

A great place to stay when visitng New Your.
The VRBO Listing is totally accurate and the property was in great condition. The location is excellent for visiting the New York area, we were able to use the subway to visit everything during our visit. The owners were tremendously helpful in finding restaurants in the area, how to use the subway and assisted us in arranging transportation to the airport when we left. We would definitely use this property for future visits to New York. And thanks to the owners for being so helpful during our stay.

Nette Unterkunft für Großstadterfahrene
Wir haben uns im Großen und Ganzen wohlgefühlt. In der Wohnung war alles, was man braucht. Man ist mit der U-Bahn in 30 min. in Manhatten. Aber auch Downtown Brooklyn hat viel zu bieten. Der Weg von oder zur U-Bahn bei Dunkelheit hat uns als Großstädter nicht geschreckt; könnte den einen oder anderen evtl. verunsichern. Die Vermieterin war freundlich und jederzeit per WhatsApp erreichbar, leider haben wir uns in fast 2 Wochen nie persönlich getroffen. Einziger Wehrmutstropfen war das in den USA übliche Queenbett mit 150 cm Breite, was in der Anzeige als Kingbett angegeben wurde. Für uns war es zu klein ...

Great Brooklyn base for an NYC family adventure
Exactly as advertised. This spacious, comfortable (cool) Brooklyn base was perfect for our family of five's recent visit to NYC. All the essentials (groceries, restaurants, great coffee) in easy walking distance from the apartment. Lots to explore locally and an easy ride on the J or C into Manhattan. Judith is a warm, generous and responsive host. Highly recommended.

Great apartment in an ideal location for easy access to Manhattan
This was the perfect apartment for our week in NYC with ample space for our family of four with 2 teenagers. Exactly as described and pictured, super clean, quality fresh linens and towels, full amenities including laundry. Great location for travelling into Manhattan each day - within a 15 minute walk to the subway in a safe, friendly neighbourhood. We felt welcome immediately - Judith and Ralph were wonderful hosts, available when we needed them and gave us great touring tips. Highly recommend this Brooklyn apartment - thanks for everything, Judith!
