Description

Recently renovated to perfection, this lovely turnkey Kensington three-bedroom home provides plenty of space to expand and boasts A PRIVATE PARKING SPACE and a sweet garden out back. On a quiet and charming tree-lined street, 274 Parkville is one of six brick rowhouses built in the 20s, each with two-stories and an English basement. A mid-block driveway takes you to a private alley lined with garages and parking spaces for each home. Up the front stoop, a separate windowed entry welcomes you into the home. The spacious living room has two large windows overlooking the greenery outside and fit with new custom shutters. The open plan carries through to the dining room and into the well-appointed kitchen. With white cabinetry, Caesarstone counters, classic subway tile, slate floor tile, open shelving, and a suite of Bosch stainless steel appliances, including an externally vented range hood, the kitchen has a ton of storage and workspace, plus a breakfast bar with seating for three. The oversized south-facing kitchen window brings in beautiful light and overlooks the garden below. A second bath or powder room could easily be added in what is currently a large closet off the kitchen. Down the stairs is the open English basement where you'll find the new washer and dryer. With ample ceiling height, large windows that bring in abundant natural light, and a wide-open layout, this fabulous space is just waiting to be (easily) converted into a den or rec room. On the third floor, at the top of the stairs, you'll find two bedrooms, each with a sizable closet and large window. Beautiful light pours in through three large windows in the primary bedroom which spans the width of the front of the house. The bright and airy bathroom features a large skylight, subway tile and modern chrome fixtures. Throughout the home you'll find custom lighting and window treatments, high ceilings, classic moldings, gorgeous horizontal hardwood floors with walnut inlay, and split system ductless AC units. Near the F, D and Q trains, and two blocks from the commercial offerings on Coney Island Avenue, the location is super convenient. Reach out to make an appointment to see this fantastic move-in-ready home!
