Description

Discover spacious, sun-splashed interiors, abundant prewar charm, and a secluded backyard in this renovated legal two-family home in the heart of Greenpoint. Enjoy the current two-bedroom, two-bathroom single-family configuration offered in great condition or add your personal stamp by easily transforming the layout with an en suite primary bathroom and an additional bedroom (see alternate floor plan). This expansive three-level home melds beautiful architectural details with nice modern updates and recent renovations — a rarity for this area where homes often require a full gut renovation. Inside, an inviting vestibule entry and foyer introduce ceilings that rise more than 9 feet tall over lovely hardwood floors and handsome prewar millwork. Pocket doors reveal a large formal living room graced by a charming bay window and window seat. Ahead, a full guest bathroom offers a shower and pedestal sink, while a massive walk-in closet across the hall is perfect for coats and pantry storage. Plan your next dinner party in the formal dining room featuring a ceiling medallion and designer light fixture, chair molding and gorgeous garden views. Renovated in 2020, the oversized kitchen impresses with abundant custom cabinetry, solid countertops and tile backsplashes. The newer stainless steel appliances include a gas range, French door refrigerator, dishwasher, and built-in microwave. Indoor-outdoor living and entertaining are irresistible thanks to a large deck overlooking the yard's spacious paver patio. Surrounded by tall, mature trees in every direction, this 43-foot-deep backyard is an incredibly private and peaceful retreat. An elegant staircase topped by a stained glass skylight ushers you to the sunny top floor, where you'll find a beautifully updated marble full bathroom with an oversized walk-in shower. The massive primary bedroom boasts three eastern windows, a huge walk-in closet/dressing room, and a roomy alcove that could be easily converted to a private en suite bathroom. A 17-foot-wide front-facing bedroom offers the opportunity to create two smaller bedrooms if desired. The home's finished basement boasts 7-foot-tall ceilings, a front entrance and garden access, a laundry area and a wall of closets. The open layout here is perfect for a family room, playroom, home gym or whatever your needs require. A split HVAC system adds comfort to this gracious Greenpoint residence. This tree-lined block is surrounded by outstanding outdoor space, including McCarren Park, McGolrick Park and the East River waterfront. Start the day at Café Grumpy at the end of the street, shop at local stores and supermarkets, and enjoy easy access to the wonderful dining and nightlife venues along Manhattan and Nassau avenues. With North Williamsburg and Bushwick just blocks away, the city's best art and entertainment await nearby. Transportation is effortless with the G train, excellent bus service, CitiBikes, the BQE and LIE all within easy reach.
