The Clinton Hill Coops - A Great Place to Live in Brooklyn, New York

The Clinton Hill Coops - A Great Place to Live in Brooklyn, New York

If you're looking for a great place to live in Brooklyn, I highly recomment the Clinton Hill Co-op Apartments in Clinton Hill Brooklyn! There are many features about the co-op that make it a desirable place to buy in Brooklyn.

You can purchase a large one bedroom apartment with plenty of light in the $285,000 to $350,000 range and an even larger two bedroom apartment for between $375,000 to $450,000. Due to the recent recession and housing marking bubble burst, this is a decrease in pricing for the coop, which is great for anyone looking to buy now.

The Clinton Hill Co-ops consists of 12 buildings split up into two campuses, the North Campus on Clinton Avenue between Myrtle and Willoughby Avenues and The South Campus Between Lafayette and Greene Avenues. There are so many reasons that purchasing at the Clinton Hill Apartments is a wise investment, but here is a list of just a few of the positives:

1. The co-op is financially sound. Having just refinanced its mortgage the coop has $10,000,000 in its reserve fund.
2. For 2011 the coop Board was able to hold the maintenance fee at the 2010 level. That’s right, a co-op with no maintenance increase!
3. The apartments are large, with good sized closets. One bedroom apartments are approximately 800 Sq ft and two bedrooms are over 1000 Sq ft!
4. All of the apartments have large windows that let in a massive amount of light. Many of the apartments have fantastic Manhattan views.
5. There is 24 hour security and maintenance staff on call 24/7.
6. Newly renovated laundry facilities are on site. Storage and Parking are available.
7. The co-op has a dedicated board that meets all requirements for shareholder meetings and handles it fiduciary responsibility of making sure all of the co-ops bills are paid.
8. The co-op is located in a section of Brooklyn that is just minutes from Manhattan. You can go from the coop to 34th street Manhattan in 30 minutes.
9. The Clinton Hill/Fort Greene area is booming with upscale restaurants and shops, with more and more opening every month.
10. Clinton Hill Co-ops is located on one of most beautiful streets in Brooklyn, namely Clinton Avenue, which has been called “Mansions Row” because of all the historic mansions that line the tree line street. Want more trees? Fort Greene Park is just three blocks away!
11. The Clinton Hill Co-op is pet friendly. Dogs and cats are welcome.

For the sake of balanced reporting, there are few things that you might find negative about the coop, but they are in the process of being corrected. The elevators are badly in need of a cosmetic overhaul, and the board is planning to take care of that. The lobby of all twelve buildings are being updated and a plan to up date the individual public hallways on each floor, which are sorely in need of updating as well, is being devised. The exterior of the buildings are somewhat drab, but the interior space, cleanliness and first rate upkeep of the interiors and landscaping more than make up for it.

So that you can get an idea of the size and the amount of light that flows into these apartments, here’s a sample of one of the apartments currently for sale – 209 Clinton Avenue, Apt 14E.
