Brooklyn Apartments for Sale in Cobble Hill at 210 Congress Street

This one-bedroom co-op at 210 Congress Street in Cobble Hill isn’t particularly historic — it was designed in 1949 — but its environs are.

It’s in Congress Gardens, the six-story brick apartment building across the street from the oh-so-quaint Cobble Hill Park. It’s one of few buildings in the landmarked district that wasn’t built in the 19th century.

The mid-century home has ample proportions and a smart layout, and it’s in good shape.

There’s a small but nice windowed kitchen with open shelving and butcher-block counters, which opens onto a dining area.

The living room is ample, with a fetching wall of shelving in reclaimed wood and north-facing windows that offer views of the Brooklyn skyline.

The bedroom has double exposures; there’s no closet within, but one right across the hall and three other large closets off the dining nook.

There’s a single bathroom that’s not pictured.

Built on the former site of a Catholic orphanage and school, the building has a live-in super, a laundry room, bike storage for a fee, and an elevator — useful given that this is a sixth-floor unit. There’s also parking and storage lockers, but there’s a wait list for those.

There’s no outdoor space, but as mentioned, the lovely Cobble Hill Park is close at hand.

Listed by Steven Gerber and Stan Gerasimczyk of Corcoran, the unit is asking $599,000. Maintenance and common charges are $1,017 a month. How do you like it?
