"We are very excited about The Bay Front Estates at Mill Basin and the unique opportunity it brings to Brooklyn homebuyers," said Tony vanderBeek, Executive Vice President of Coldwell Banker Mid Plaza. "Brooklyn is just so exhilarating right now with all of the hotels coming in, Whole Foods opening a location here and all of the other great developments that are happening in the Borough. There are so many positive things about Brooklyn and we are proud to be a part of this vitality.
"Prior to this development, homebuyers' choices for luxury new construction in Brooklyn were limited to condominium apartments or the arduous task of buying an existing home, tearing it down and then re-building. Many people looking for homes like these were forced to focus their searches on Long Island or in New Jersey. Now you have superbly constructed detached single-family waterfront homes and you are still close to the museums, the restaurants, the culture and everything else that is uniquely Brooklyn," continued vanderBeek.
In addition to ten opportunities to design and build a custom home, there are five distinct layouts to choose from ranging from 4,300 square feet to over 4,700 square feet. Each home offers 4-5 bedrooms, five bathrooms and stylish features and finishes including wide plank red oak hardwood floors throughout, crown moldings, high ceilings, solid core 8-foot raised panel doors, over-sized Pella windows, Pella doors, elegant entry foyers and gas fireplaces. Each gourmet kitchen features a state-of-the-art stainless steel appliance package, imported granite counter tops, custom cabinets with decorative hardware and Kohler stainless steel double sinks and polished chrome faucets. The spacious master bedroom suite in each home comes with enormous walk-in closets and a master bath finished in marble that features a European-style double vanity, a frameless glass shower enclosure, a Jacuzzi tub and elegant designer fixtures.
The lot sizes range from over 5,000 square feet to over 12,000 square feet and each home comes with a boat slip within the community's brand new marina. More details about the project can be found at www.MillBasinHomes.com.
