150 W End Avenue #3G, Brooklyn, NY 11235

Unit 3G at 150 West End Ave is a studio that lives like more. French doors close off the foyer, so you enter into an actual entry. The kitchen is completely separate, with a window and room to eat in. Nothing to fix, nothing to paint. The kitchen has wood cabinets, granite counters, a gas range, a dishwasher, a built-in microwave, and a tall pantry cabinet.

Counter space on both sides. Room for a small table. You can cook dinner without the whole apartment smelling like it. The foyer has a closet, and the doors keep it apart from the living space. Hardwood floors run through the main room. There's space for a real sectional, a full bed, and storage without it feeling like a furniture puzzle.

The bathroom has a window too. Walk-in tiled shower with a built-in bench and grab bars, plus a vanity and medicine cabinet. The building is well run. There's a live-in super, so when something breaks, someone is actually there. Laundry is on site. Property taxes are included in the maintenance, so the monthly number you see is the number you pay.

Parking has a waiting list. Subletting is allowed once you've lived here 5 years. Manhattan Beach is one of South Brooklyn's most sought-after neighborhoods. It's quiet, residential, and tucked between Brighton Beach and Sheepshead Bay, so you get the best of both.

The beach is minutes away. So are the piers and restaurants along the Sheepshead Bay waterfront. Shops, groceries and houses of worship are all nearby. For getting around, the B and Q trains run from Brighton Beach and Sheepshead Bay, the B1 and B49 buses are close, and the Belt Parkway is minutes away.
