Description

Welcome to 727 Ditmas Avenue, a sun drenched renovated townhouse in prime Kensington. Built in 1930, this home was meticulously upgraded by the current owners in 2017. While taking great pride in maintaining original details they included modern upgrades such as all new Marvin noise cancelling windows, full Bosch kitchen. Completely gut-renovated bathrooms, a completely finished basement, beautifully restored original flooring, staircase and cornices complete the renovation and lend to a modern Scandinavian feel. With incredible charm and curb appeal, enter through the front gate up to the original stained glass door. As you enter the home you are greeted by the bright and spacious living room and adjacent dining room featuring coffered ceilings, picture ledges and original built-in cabinetry. Light streams in to this floor from the windowed door to the backyard and the wall of windows in the stunningly renovated kitchen featuring all new Bosch appliances. Up the restored skylit staircase there are three bright and cheerful bedrooms which are generously sized - two being king sized. A gut renovated and thoughtfully designed bath can also be found on this level. The basement was lovingly refinished making a great family room with a new full bathroom and washer and dryer. There is also a bonus room currently used as studio/workshop/storage space. A short walk to F train at Ditmas or B/Q at Cortelyou Road. The famed Cortelyou Road has The Food Co-Op, year round Farmers Market, many shops and favored restaurants such as The Farm on Adderly, Mimi's Hummus, The Costello Plan, Purple Yam and so many others. Kensington is known for it's quiet streets, old Victorian homes, parks and incredible diversity. The proverbial melting pot.
