Description

One of a kind, special, unique? when I think of this home and how to tell you about it, this is what comes to mind first. I have been a New Yorker all my life and once in a while we see something and just know how rare it is and that?s this residence. The property is a full 25? wide and faces the southern light. Instead of the home being on the street, it sits privately in the rear of the property (something you are no longer allowed to do) and is accessed through a gated entrance that brings you into your hidden garden. There is an oasis of a courtyard in the middle and in the front of the property an incredible stand alone atelier that these days we all can only dream of. There are 3 bedrooms , 2 baths a wood burner in the dining room and so much charm that even the pickiest Parisienne will melt. In addition there is a clean full height basement for all your storage needs. The images, floorplan and virtual presentation tell you the story better than I can and I really look forward to showing you in person because it actually looks even better with your own eyes. Please contact me directly as this will be shown only by private appointments.

Gowanus features a striking mix of 19th-century brick warehouses, Greek Revival rowhouses, and new glass-and-steel condominiums rising along the canal waterfront. The F, G, R, D, and N/W trains are accessible at nearby Smith-Ninth Streets and Fourth Avenue-Ninth Street stations, with Atlantic Terminal a short walk north. Washington Park and the Old Stone House landmark anchor the neighborhood's green space, while a major rezoning is bringing thousands of new residential units and waterfront parkland to the area.
