About this property

Modern Artsy Apartment In Hip Part Of Brooklyn

This 2nd floor studio apartment is a private, small space at the back of the building, with minimal street noise activity. The house is an old 1910 wood frame building, with layers of history and normal wear. It is a family-friendly building, owner-occupied (1st floor), with another family on the 3rd floor.
The kitchen is tucked in an alcove, but open to the living/sleeping areas. All kitchen appliances and fixtures are modern, with a stone counter and copper back-splash.
There is an entry closet. The bathroom has a standard tub with shower, dual flush toilet and stainless industrial sink. All towels and sheets are provided. This apartment offers two places to sleep, first is a bed for double sleeper and the other a fold-down chair for single sleeper.
The living room/ sleeping area windows face Northeast; allowing a lot of morning sun and indirect, natural light. Most of the furniture is minimal, modern style.
Although there are sleeping accommodations for three, it is really best for two adults (and one child).
With an artist owner, it is a work in progress. Please do not expect hotel-level finished, but instead an interesting dialogue between materials, spaces, furnishings.
**This is a Non-Smoking unit**No Parties**
Check in is at 4PM and check out is 11AM. I try to accommodate all individual arrival and departure circumstances

Great value and wonderful hosts
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Frid was a fantastic host. Very responsive and incredibly accommodating. We had a red eye flight and arrived early in the morning as well as a late night flight when we departed so an early check in and somewhere we could leave our luggage on the day of departure was important. Frid was very understanding and accommodated our situation. Unit was clean and was great value.

暮らすように旅するブルックリン滞在3ヶ月
最初の4週間は娘(50才)と二人、 その後の3週間は私(75才)一人で そして最後の4週間を夫(76才)と二人で このアパートで過ごしました。古い家をリノベーションした部屋でしたので(私はそういうお部屋が大好きでしたので この部屋を見つけたときは本当に嬉しかったのです)小さなトラブルはいくつかありましたが オーナーは私達が気持ち良く過ごす為に最善を尽くしてくれたと思います。1ブロック歩けばコインランドリー ちょっとした買い物できるお店もあってとっ便利に暮らしました。バスで7AVステーションの手前で降りて2ブロック歩くと素晴らしい図書館と美術館に行けます。せっかくブルックリンに滞在するならマンハッタンに通うだけでなくこちらをも堪能していただきたいと思います。生活圏内は不安を感じるような事はなくて フレンドリーな雰囲気でした。バスと地下鉄を利用して娘と夫はマンハッタンへ毎日のように出かけて街歩きを楽しんでいました。私もすっかりバスと地下鉄の乗り換えをマスターして一人でもあちこち出かけました。いっぱい歩いた翌日は絵を描いて過ごしました。NYでやりたかった事をすべてやって素晴らしい滞在でした。オーナーに心より感謝しています。

Great location, amazing host, friendly neighborhood in Brooklyn
Frïd is such a warm, welcoming host and made my experience living in New York for three months as easy and comfortable as possible. Particularly in terms of access Frïd went above and beyond. As I have a disability I often have trouble with some door handles. Frïd organized for a new door handle to be installed soon after I arrived. The apartment was incredibly comfortable and is located in a very friendly, safe neighborhood. Lots of great cafes/ restaurants nearby and is about a 15-20 minute walk to Prospect Park, and about a 10minute walk to the R subway. Overall I had an amazing time here!

Very good communication
Communication (text) with Frid, the owner, was always fast, pleasant and mostly helpful. Neighborhood safe - house quiet with one exception: when the upstairs renter (with dog) is home, it can be noisy (washer runs at night etc) text rid and she will help.I liked the view into the back yard - better than on the photo !

About the host

Hosted by Frid Branham

Host profile image
As mentioned in the rental description, I am an artist and architect. I am currently self-employed and most of the projects I do are residential or small businesses, although I have a lot of experience working on institutional/medical projects.

I was born in Ibiza, Spain to American parents and moved back to the States when I was 11. My parents are also creatives, working in architecture, art and fashion. After receiving a 4-year degree in History from Boston University, I decided to pursue architecture and attended my parents alma matter Pratt Institute. Afterwards, I completed a Masters degree in sculpture at Hunter College.



Why they chose this property

I love the friendly, safe neighborhood. It is slightly divided off from South Slope/Park Slope, creating an enclave of its own. There are plenty of shops, bars, restaurants to try; many of different regions of the world.
The school system is very good and my kids can safely walk around the neighborhood unattended by an adult.

What makes this property unique

I live in the building, and make myself available to any and all questions, needs and concerns.
