388 Bridge Street #PH51C

Fifty-one stories above Downtown Brooklyn, this duplex penthouse puts the whole city at your feet. This graciously appointed two-bedroom, three-bathroom residence has 1,602 square feet of living space, a 200+ square-foot private terrace, and a private entrance on both floors. You live with the feel of a townhouse, set high in one of Brooklyns tallest residential towers. Throughout, wide-plank white oak floors run beneath 11-foot ceilings and bold architectural concrete columns. Floor-to-ceiling windows face south and east, filling both levels with light and opening onto views across Brooklyn, out over the harbor and on to the Atlantic. The Entertaining Level 51st Floor The living room is built for both quiet evenings and big gatherings. A wall of built-ins hides a queen-sized Murphy bed by Resource Furniture in plain sight, so overnight guests are easy to host. Next to it, the formal dining room seats a full dinner party under a crystal chandelier. From there, step out to the private terrace to dine outdoors or have cocktails at sunset as the skyline lights up. The open chefs kitchen has walnut and white lacquer cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a long waterfall island with a breakfast bar. The appliances are top of the line: a Liebherr refrigerator, a Bosch dishwasher, a vented Wolf five-burner gas cooktop, and a Wolf oven and microwave. A full bathroom completes this floor. The Residence 52nd Floor Up a switchback staircase, the primary suite also takes in views to the south and east. It features two large custom closets and a spa-like en suite bath finished in white quartz and limestone, with a floating vanity, a thermostatic shower system, and modern fixtures. The second bedroom has a large closet, custom built-ins, a second hidden Murphy bed (twin bunk beds) and a full bath next door, so it works equally well as a guest suite or a home office. An in-unit Bosch washer/dryer and central HVAC offer everyday comfort. An alternate floor plan shows how a third bedroom could be added while keeping the separate living and dining rooms. This apartment makes sense as a home or exceptional pied--terre that is completely turnkey in either case. The Building 388 Bridge Street is a full-service condominium with a 24-hour attended lobby and a live-in superintendent. Indoor amenities include a fitness center, a resident lounge and party room, and a childrens playroom. Outside, a landscaped terrace of about 5,000 square feet on the fifth floor has barbecue grills and an outdoor play area. Other amenities include a pet spa with a dog wash station, bicycle storage, central laundry facilities, and on-site dry cleaning. On the top floors, the Sky Lounge features billiards, a fireplace, and panoramic city skyline views. Above the Sky Lounge, a 54th-floor observation deck looks out in every direction. A private storage cage comes with the residence, and valet garage parking is available. The Neighborhood Downtown Brooklyn sits where Brooklyn Heights, Dumbo, Fort Greene and BoCoCa meet. City Point BKLYN, steps away, has Trader Joes, Target, Alamo Drafthouse and the DeKalb Market Hall. Fulton Street has Nordstrom Rack, Macys and H&M. Whole Foods, Atlantic Terminal, BAM and Barclays Center are all a short walk. Fort Greene Park offers green space and a year-round greenmarket. The A/C, B/F, Q/R, 2/3, 4/5, and G trains, plus buses and Citi Bike, connect you to anywhere in the city. An assessment is currently in place.
