Description

Nestled on a tree-lined block amongst other turn of the century townhouses, 502 Classon stands stately and sophisticated. This thoughtfully renovated and beautifully restored three family brownstone boasts 4 floors of living, 4 1/2 bathrooms, plus a full basement and large, lush garden. Possibilities are endless with five levels to work with; keep it as is and collect handsome rents, combine the parlor, garden, and basement to create an incredible owner's triplex with two income producing apartments, or bring your ideas and your architect to build the single-family home of your dreams.
Up the stunning brownstone stoop, and through the grand double doors, you'll find an artfully renovated, and meticulously restored building that truly honors the feeling and history of the original home. Expertly restored details including crown moldings, intricate plaster work with floral reliefs, elegant mantles, solid wood doors, and exposed brick throughout, bring the history of this home alive, while renovated kitchens and bathrooms assure that modern comforts and conveniences are accommodated.
The Parlor level features soaring ceilings, a large, open living and dining area, and a modern open kitchen with stainless steel appliances, including a gas range and a dishwasher.The bathroom has been tastefully renovated with clean white subway tiles on the walls, classic black and white, small format floor tiling, a pedestal sink, and a bathtub. The king-sized bedroom overlooks the lush, green garden, and has a full wall of closets to meet all your storage needs. Delicate plaster work adorns the ceilings and the walls throughout.
The cozy garden level features a stunningly restored fireplace surround, exposed brick with architectural details, a modern bathroom with a tiled shower, laundry,and direct access to the backyard.The landscaped garden has been finished with brick paving, a wall of mature ivy, and a beautiful Japanese Maple Tree with under plantings that surround a lovely water feature. The semi-finished basement has over 7 ft. exposed beamed ceilings, a half bathroom, and houses the building mechanicals.
The 2nd and 3rd floor apartments are updated with modern kitchens including dishwashers, stainless steel appliances and classic white cabinetry.Exposed brick walls and hardwood floors run throughout these open concept apartments, and two exposures with large windows allow light to dance in all day long. Original moldings, mantles, medallions, and window shutters keep the building's history alive, while the lofty open floor plans keep the apartments feeling fresh, modern, and relevant.
The newly finished facade of 502 Classon allows it to stand out proudly on this lovely block.
