OUR OPINION: 253-255 Skillman is a great condo-style rental. This particular duplex sits on the corner of a top floor 4th floor walkup, boasting plenty of sunlight and a large private roof deck. The finishes are very nice, featuring modern bathroom, a kitchen island, storage closets, and stainless appliances. Additionally, there is a stacked Bosch washer/dryer in-unit, and private storage unit in the basement. THE NEIGHBORHOOD: The Graham L train area is booming. The night life has picked up quite a bit as well, with numerous bars opening their doors. Top restaurants such as Cozy Royale and Osakana are right around the corner. The property stands on a quiet tree-lined street, close to the Graham L train.
