Loft B-312 offers something rarely present in most waterfront homes; The sound of waves colliding with the base of the building when windows are ajar. This calming effect isn't as audible in most waterfront condominiums in Brooklyn, because there is typically a break of land between a building and the estuary itself. However, 184 Kent stands directly against the East River, and only a few units perched at the buildings' west end enjoy this benefit, this feeling of being on top of the water. Facing east, at the other side of B-312 both bedrooms face a massive lush courtyard with truly impressive landscaping. When windows are open at this side of the home you here the sounds of chirping birds and leaves rustling in the wind. This juxtaposition makes B-312 one of only eight units in the building with both of these unique features.
The interior of the loft-like condos at the Austin Nichols House perfectly blend the timeless historic qualities of the residence with a modern twist. You'll find high beveled concrete ceilings, expansive floor spaces, and concrete columns in some lofts. It is evident that the building has historic relevance, having once operated as a Grocery Trade and then Bourbon Distillery. B-312 itself boasts permanent spectacular views of Manhattan through 3 tall cross pattern windows. Note that the interior has been modified with new hardware and cabinet fronts in the kitchen, new modern lighting installed in each room, added storage space in the primary bedroom, additional built-in storage with a murphy bed in the second bedroom, and a new Miele washer/dryer.

Williamsburg, Brooklyn
Is there a better Borough in New York City? Probably not.
A former artists’ enclave, Williamsburg is an ultra-trendy neighborhood in Brooklyn that draws the young and the fashionable from around the world. Known for being the birthplace of NYC’s hipster movement and its close proximity to Manhattan, Williamsburg has become one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Brooklyn. The old factories from its industrial past have been converted into gorgeous lofts; luxury high-rises with stunning Manhattan views line the waterfront; and boutique condos are mixed among townhouses and old tenement buildings. While the neighborhood continues to evolve with the arrival of North 6th Street Shops, lavish hotels and more, it still maintains a hip and edgy vibe. Hot spots include: Brooklyn Bowl, Diner, Radegast, Lilia, Smorgasburg, Baby’s All Right, Four Horseman, and Brooklyn Steel.
