The $29,000 per month rent of the 6,300-square-foot townhouse at 11 Cranberry Street is the most expensive rental unit in Brooklyn. The meticulously designed historic home is furnished and available for short or long term rent.
The neighborhood offers great views of the bridge and the river, as well as is near the Brooklyn Bridge Park. In addition to its historic description and the high ceilings of the home, it has a designer flair with modern conveniences like "an epic five zone Sonos music system."
The townhouse features floor-to-ceiling windows, two fireplaces, and a grand dining room that can accommodate up to ten persons. There's also a chef's kitchen in classic white, and an open sitting room that overlooks a landscaped garden which has "one of the oldest and most lovely walnut trees in the Heights."
Beautifully done by noted designer Amanda Riedel, the décor of the townhouse combines traditional architecture with modern style in shades of beige and white, and with features of "costly imported rugs" and "exciting contemporary art by famed artist Michael Mut."
The two bedrooms and the two bath suites on the garden level are perfect for kids or guests with kids. On the second floor of the townhouse, you will find a modern living room, a media room, and a casual dining area which have a "Mediterranean feel."
The master bedroom suite on the third floor features a spa-like master bath, a laundry area, a walk-in closet, and a sitting lounge.
On the fourth floor, you will see a great view of "the sky and the clouds meeting the harbor." The uppermost bedroom has its own private bath, and best of all, a gorgeous deck overlooking the harbor.
