Description

This gorgeous duplex condo in a lovely brownstone has all you need to live beautifully in Brooklyn - enter through the garden level, into a spacious living room with gas fireplace, and continue through a wide hallway into the large attractive kitchen with eat-in dining. From there, walk directly out to your own large private yard, lushly planted with peonies, dogwood, Japanese maple and a separate area for cooking and dining. Upstairs you'll find 2 generous, sunny bedrooms with high ceilings, a laundry room and a modern bathroom with double vanity and extra large bath tub. On top of it all, you have access to the entire semi-finished basement for storage, sharing it with just one other unit in the building. Located at the border of Clinton Hill and Bed-Stuy, this home is just a few blocks away from the A train which runs express to Manhattan, and within close proximity to great dining and cafes.
