Description

Perfectly positioned at the crossroads of Windsor Terrace and Kensington, 40 Tehama St. #2H is a spacious and elegant two-bedroom home with easy potential for a third bedroom, offering a rare blend of pre-war charm and modern updates.
Step into the beautifully preserved Art Deco lobby and ride one of the newly updated elevators up to your home. A gracious foyer welcomes you with a coat closet and plenty of space for shoes, strollers, and a stylish entry setup. Immediately, you'll notice the pre-war details, with graceful archways and a built-in to set the alluring tone.
The expansive and naturally bright south-facing living room easily accommodates both a full dining area and a home office. This space is complete with original wall sconces and custom floating shelves that add warmth and character.
 Adjacent is the massive eat-in chef's kitchen including two windows, recently gut-renovated and an absolute standout. Outfitted with custom sea-green cabinetry, quartz countertops, subway tile backsplash, new wood floors, and stainless-steel appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher and Frigidaire gas range with ice-making refrigerator, this kitchen offers exceptional storage and timeless style, a rarity in NYC.
The king-sized primary bedroom has dual exposures, separate closets, and abundant space to unwind. This room could easily convert to two bedrooms. The views are leafy and the feeling is spacious and serene. The second bedroom, also generous in size is quiet and complete with a Minka ceiling fan. A sleek, gut-renovated windowed bathroom with a floating vanity and deep soaking tub sits just outside the bedrooms. In all, there are five closets with available storage in the basement as well.
40 Tehama Street is a well-kept cooperative with a live-in superintendent, central laundry room, bike storage, and storage rooms. Residents also enjoy two dedicated outdoor areas. There is an expansive backyard courtyard with room for grilling, personal potted plants, and al fresco dining. Additionally, there is a lovely and landscaped front garden to relax in.
Located just one block from the F/G trains at Church Avenue, and close to multiple bus lines including B67, B69, AND Express Bus 1,2,3, and 4. There is a Citibike dock on the block.  Nearby favorite eateries include Steeplechase Coffee, Batata, Windsor Coffee, Hamilton's, and Brancaccio's Food Shop. This tree-lined street is moments away from Prospect Park and Greenwood Cemetery.  Pet friendly, FIOS ready! Current assessment of $121 through 2030 for a recent elevator improvement. With approximately 1100 square feet, this is Brooklyn living at its best!
