Description

Rare Two Bedroom, plus 280-SF Terrace at the Austin Nichols House

A602 is a serene, split two-bedroom home with a private terrace, set within Williamsburg's most architecturally significant full-service condominium. The layout places both the living and dining areas along a wall of windows, with an expansive 22-foot living room offering direct terrace access, 10'8" ceiling. Open-sky exposures and nine floor-to-ceiling windows fill the space with natural light throughout the day, creating an atmosphere that is both calm and refined.

The primary bedroom comfortably accommodates a king-sized bed and includes an en suite bath with a glass shower wall, a thoughtfully designed corner workspace with shelving, and a meticulously built-out walk-in closet. The second bedroom, positioned at the opposite end of the apartment, sits adjacent to a second full bathroom, offering privacy and flexibility for guests, work-from-home, or family use. The apartment is exceptionally well considered, with a natural flow between living, dining, and outdoor spaces, and clear separation between sleeping areas.

The terrace functions as a true extension of the home-generously scaled and thoughtfully proportioned, with multiple areas for dining, relaxing, and entertaining. It is a meaningful part of daily life and a feature rarely found at this scale within the building.

The newly renovated chef's kitchen balances precision and warmth, featuring custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a full suite of premium appliances, including a Café counter-depth French-door refrigerator, Bertazzoni five-burner range and microwave, Asko dishwasher, and LG washer/dryer. A peninsula with counter seating anchors the space and encourages easy interaction with the living and dining areas.

Set within the full-service Austin Nichols House, residents enjoy 24-hour concierge service and approximately 30,000 square feet of amenities, including a two-level waterfront fitness center, landscaped roof terrace with skyline views, resident lounge, coworking and conference rooms, screening room, playroom, and an on-site garage with direct elevator access from the A Quad. A full-time resident superintendent further distinguishes the building.

Located along the Williamsburg waterfront promenade, the building offers immediate access to the East River Ferry, Domino Park, Trader Joe's, and Whole Foods, with the L train, restaurants, cafés, and boutiques moments away. Despite its vibrant surroundings, the residence itself remains notably quiet and composed.

Originally constructed in 1915 as a waterfront warehouse and reimagined by architect Morris Adjmi, the Austin Nichols House is a landmarked pre-war condominium that seamlessly blends historic scale with modern, full-service living-an increasingly rare offering.

This is not a typical two-bedroom condominium. It offers air, outdoor space, architectural integrity, full-time services, and exceptionally low monthly carrying costs. For buyers who value discretion, livability, and long-term quality, Residence A602 presents a compelling opportunity.
