Mod Industrial Co-op in a Former Brooklyn Heights Pumping Station Asks $1.995 Million

This co-op at 25 Joralemon Street, housed in a former pumping station, offers a sweeping, loft-like living space, with a double-height ceiling in the front. Exposed steel girders, an open staircase leading to a loft and a pair of arched windows add some visual flair. There’s a working fireplace as well.

There are three levels here: said living space, which incorporates an open kitchen; said loft, which holds an office space and a “guest sleeping area”; and a second floor, which houses two bedrooms, two baths and a study.

In contrast to the vast living space, the second floor is relatively cramped, with bedrooms on the small side — both are under 10 feet wide. They each have a skylight, though, so there’s a plus, and the larger one has a dressing area and a sizable en suite bath.

The kitchen is a nice one, with a Sub-Zero fridge, a Wolf range, black granite countertops, an island, a wine fridge and white lacquered cabinets.

At the rear of the main level there’s an additional space tagged on the floor plan as a “storage area”; the listing, from Nancy Giddins at Brown Harris Stevens, cites a kids’ play area as a possible use.

There’s a washer and dryer back there as well. No natural light, though — and for that matter, the rear parts of the main level may not be light-flooded in general.

There’s a patio shared by the building’s six apartments. So, nothing to get excited about in the outdoor-space department. And some may be turned off by the close proximity to the BQE. As a consolation, though, Brooklyn Bridge Park is close at hand.

Maintenance and common charges come to $1,478 a month. The ask is $1.995 million — a $500K jump from what it sold for five years ago.

What do you think of the place?
