Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

There's a lot going on in Greenpoint, with trendy eateries, music venues and a big creative community. And less than half an hour from Lower Manhattan, it's no suprise that it's a great choice for visitors to the city – whether they're here for work or leisure. This charming little loft home is in one of the area's famous former warehouses, and boasts features like sash windows, exposed brick walls and beamed ceilings. With a stripped back, stylish look, there's a lot to love about this little space. A new kitchen is perfectly equipped for cooking at home and the home's clever design means there are separate spaces for sleeping, cooking and working – despite it being a studio flat. Out and about there are all sorts of great places to eat and drink, and we suggest popping over to McGolrick Park, where you can buy fresh and organic produce at the Down to Earth Farmers Market every Sunday.
