Description

Live well in this beautifully renovated circa 1865 townhouse in prime Gowanus, one of Brooklyn's fastest-growing sought-after neighborhoods! The generous 4-story, 2,540 square foot home with a 915 square foot private garden is an absolute beauty, and a rare offering in Gowanus. A legal 2-family being used as a single-family, the spacious turnkey residence is bright, quiet, and oozes comfort and elegance. Move right in and enjoy so many wonderful features like a new roof, new windows, new stoop, new kitchen (all 2020) and other fabulous upgrades such as central air conditioning, a new heating system in the garden level, a new hot water heater and alarm system with remote monitoring. Modern elements are complemented by the warmth and charm of original re-sanded, refinished wide-plank pine wood floors, exposed brick, lovely fireplaces, a graceful staircase, classic moldings, and original claw-foot tub. The airy garden level with exterior and interior access presents an open living/dining room enriched by a fireplace for relaxing and entertaining. The sunny open kitchen that adjoins was impeccably renovated, appointed with sleek white cabinetry, Carrera marble countertops, a white tile backsplash, a large center island with open storage, and premium appliances for the seasoned cook including a Sub-Zero fridge, Bosch dishwasher and 6-burner Viking stove with a fully vented hood. On this level you'll also find the mechanical room plus additional storage, a vented washer-dryer, a windowed full bath, and entry to the expansive rear yard for private outdoor enjoyment. Details here include herringbone-laid bluestone, an antique brick walkway leading to the raised yard, lush plantings, cedar fencing, a retaining wall, and plenty of space for alfresco living/dining. The recently redone front garden, stoop and porch welcomes you to the gracious parlor level. Inside is a second living room with fireplace, a handsome office/den behind pocket doors, 10' ceilings, and a full tiled, windowed bathroom. Up the stairs, the second floor is occupied by 2 well-proportioned bedrooms with ample closets, a full hall bath, and nursery/bonus area. The third level marked by 10'9' vaulted ceilings and enchanting skylights is reserved for the primary bedroom retreat with extensive closets, sitting and office areas, and a serene en-suite windowed bath with a claw-foot soaking tub, separate shower, luxurious tile and millwork. Other highlights include clever hidden built-ins and excellent storage. Located between 3rd and 4th Avenues on desirable 14th Street, the house is perfectly situated close to shops, restaurants, cafes, playgrounds, and other neighborhood conveniences. Burgeoning Gowanus is home to such well-known gems as Claro, My Cuban Spot, Sweet Talk, Four and Twenty Blackbirds, and Littleneck. Several short blocks to the F/G and R subways lines, as well as bus lines down 3rd and 4th Aves. First showings Oct. 16th from 12:00pm-1:30pm.
