Drink your fill of sunshine, river views, serene space and extraordinary services in this sterling southwest facing, high-floor one bedroom plus balcony at the Edge - the preeminent condo project on Williamsburg's glinting waterside, a highly-desired, LEED Gold-certified luxury development with amenities galore and taxes abated until 2036.
But first, the apartment: no box is left unchecked in this roomy mint resale on the 20th floor of the Edge's north tower: a southwest-facing balcony to catch sunsets, sweet breezes, and the East River ferry chugging by; an in-unit and energy-efficient Bosch washer and dryer; a kitchen whose plentiful pantry and cabinet storage augments a full suite of chef-grade appliances; a spa-like and relaxing bathroom -- and of course, the spacious serenity of a king-size bedroom and large living room, temperature-controlled with filtered central air and made luminous by oversized south-facing windows bouncing light off the white oak floors.
Ease of living in 20B is underlined by the long and lush list of services at the Edge -- underground parking, on-site hybrid Zip cars, bike room and storage rooms are just the beginning. The extensive amenities include a swimming area with an all-season pool, splash pool with waterfall, healing whirlpool, sauna, and Turkish steam bath. The sports facility features a full size indoor basketball court (which is also used to host soccer matches, ballroom dancing, and volleyball games) in addition to state-of-the-art fitness centers in each tower of the complex. a yoga/dance studio, spa treatment rooms, and virtual golf center. Screening rooms in each tower can be reserved, as can the two lounges with chef kitchens and large flat-screen TVs. The indoor amenities are beautifully complemented by a lush outdoor courtyard and a rooftop terrace on each tower, and there is, of course, also a 24 hour doorman, on-site concierge service and full time support staff (porters, superintendents, resident manager, etc.).
The Edge was built with sustainable design in mind, using natural materials and energy-efficient systems, and is the largest LEED Gold certified complex in NYC. Its location couldn't be more desirable -- touching the green of the East River State Park, viewing the Manhattan skyline, and intimately connected to the best of Williamsburg -- from Partners Coffee to the Brooklyn Flea, a trove of local favorites and flagship locations awaits. The Bedford Avenue L is a straight shot into the city, and the Ferry is at your doorstep for a scenic commute.
