Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Located in trendy Williamsburg, you'll have plenty of hip bars and indie shops nearby, while the ferry over to Manhattan is well within reach. The apartment itself is modern and practical, with everything needed for a comfortable stay. There's a desk if you need to work remotely, while the uncluttered bedrooms are ideal for decompressing after sightseeing. The compact kitchen is well-equipped for preparing light bites and quick meals, but when dinnertime arrives we recommend heading out and sampling the local eateries nearby.

The kitchen is small and better suited for prepping lighter bites rather than large meals.
This home was purpose-built for rentals, so it's not the most soulful or charming space.
One well-behaved dog is welcome to accompany you.

About East Williamsburg
East Williamsburg might not yet be as gentrified as Williamsburg proper - it still retains a grittier, more industrial feel - but the sense of change here is palpable. Buildings splashed with vibrant grafitti art stand alongside factories that make everything from plastic bags to wontons and tortillas. This is not the Brooklyn of leafy streets lined with brownstone homes. Roberta's pizzeria was a force of transformation when it opened...
