Description

Light filled and lovely! This charming semi-detached single-family home has been lovingly restored to preserve all the beautiful original details while bringing it into the modern era. With three exposures, a skylight, a front porch and a large newly fenced backyard, enjoy solitude and light all day long! Enter the parlor floor from your front porch, and be greeted by original details such as the vintage wooden door, stripped wood staircase and bleached pine floors. Bay windows illuminate the living room, and a decorative fireplace adds charm to the room. Pocket doors separate the living room from a full-sized dining room. The open floor plan of the parlor provides a seamless flow for entertaining. There?s plenty of storage with a cleverly hidden storage space tucked under the staircase, and a powder room/laundry room combination hidden off of the dining room. At the back of the home, the kitchen has been stylishly renovated with slate floors, Caesarstone countertops, glossy white cabinets, white subway tiles, extra shelving space, and a farmhouse sink. A wall of exposed brick and wood shelving adds rustic charm. The back door leads out to the garden for summer barbecues and relaxing nights under the stars. Upstairs, light streams in from a skylight into the hallway. The three large bedrooms have ample closet space, and there is a smaller room, ideal for a home office or nursery. A shared windowed bathroom has beautiful Carrara marble tiling, a heated towel rack, and a deep tub. Newly installed central air is provided from mini split system units on the first two floors. Enter into the lower level either from the kitchen or a separate side entrance, perfect for a mother-in-law, guest suite, or a recreation space. The windowed english basement provides even more storage space, with an entire garden utility room complete with the original oversized cast iron utility sink, perfect for the avid gardener! A second full bathroom with original clawfoot tub completes the downstairs space. Discover Kensington and neighboring Ditmas Park restaurants along Church Ave and Cortelyou Road such as The Farm on Adderley, Wheated, Mondays Off Thai and more. Centrally located between the Beverly Rd Q train, and Church Av F/G stop. A 15 minute walk from the Prospect Park and the Parade Grounds. You'll be so glad to call Kensington home!
