This top-floor one-bedroom in Crown Heights has a nice renovation and charming original details, but it doesn’t come cheap. The kitchen features stainless steel counters and appliances, exposed brick and wooden cabinets, while the living room and bedrooms are more traditional. The apartment is huge, though: At a whopping 1,200 square feet, according to the listing, the size might possibly justify $2,000 a month in this part of Crown Heights. What do you think of the look and the rent?

I live a block east of here and my neighbor just rented his smaller 1BR for the same price. “This part of Crown Heights” ain’t as affordable as it used to be.
Looks like the building is 16×55 with an extension, so maybe sq footage is more like 950.
The clever landlord installed a kitchen with no tile backsplash and no base cabinets. Pretty thrifty.
From the pictures and knowing the size of those buildings I would say that this apartment is a damn good deal. You have both quality & quantity of space.
Anyone who thinks otherwise, that this is a high price to ask, I would say needs to get out there and see what else is on the market! Anywhere!
