Property Details

Apartment 31U at The Willoughby — a high-floor corner residence with some of the best views we’ve ever had in New York.

Fiance and I are relocating for work and genuinely would not be leaving otherwise. Lease takeover date somewhat flexible in early July.

The apartment sits on the 31st floor and gets incredible natural light throughout the day thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows and dual exposures. As a corner unit, it feels notably more open and private than many comparable layouts in the building. The views stretch across Downtown Brooklyn, New York Harbor, the Manhattan skyline, bridges, and open sky — especially striking at sunrise and at night.

The apartment itself has a clean modern design with wide-plank flooring, in-unit washer/dryer, central air, integrated appliances, quartz countertops, and a thoughtfully laid out kitchen/living area that works well both for everyday living and entertaining.

The building is less than 5 years old, with a full-service staff and a good amenity package: rooftop terrace with grilling and lounge areas, multiple coworking/library spaces, fitness center and yoga studio, resident lounges, outdoor courtyard, bike storage, etc.

Location-wise, it’s hard to beat. You are within a few minutes of Fort Greene, City Point, Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Dekalb Market Hall, Atlantic Terminal, and nearly every major subway line (2/3, 4/5, A/C, B/D, N/Q/R, G), making Manhattan and the rest of Brooklyn extremely accessible.

This has been a great and comfortable apartment to live in — quiet, bright, modern, and very well-managed.

Fort Greene, Brooklyn (NYC) Building Address For Rent: 196 Willoughby Street, Downtown Brooklyn, NY, 11201. We are #1 in furnished short term rentals, furnished sublets and furnished rooms for rent.
