Description

Enter into this masterfully restored brownstone, where timeless elegance meets modern luxury. You're immediately greeted by a bright and spacious living room on the grand parlor floor, adorned with exquisite herringbone hardwood floors and an original decorative fireplace, creating a perfect blend of historic charm and contemporary sophistication. The herringbone pattern continues seamlessly throughout the home, guiding you from the living space to the formal dining area and into the custom-designed kitchen. This culinary haven features a large island with breakfast bar seating, two Summit wine coolers, quartz countertops, and a full suite of top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances. From here, move out onto the rear deck, where stairs lead you down to a tranquil garden-level backyard oasis, perfect for outdoor entertaining or peaceful relaxation.

Ascend to the second level and discover a sanctuary of luxury. The primary suite is a true retreat, boasting an expansive walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom that exudes elegance, with its patterned floors and an oversized glass-enclosed shower. An additional bedroom on this level is equally impressive, featuring its own walk-in closet and large bay windows that flood the space with natural light and this level features a third bedroom, home office, or nursery. The journey continues upward to the rooftop deck, where you can unwind and take in the sweeping views of the surrounding neighborhood.

On the garden level, two sunlit bedrooms each offer their own closets and en suite bathrooms, providing comfort and privacy for guests. The hallway is lined with three storage closets, leading to a well-appointed laundry room complete with a Whirlpool washer and dryer and a wet bar, adding convenience to this thoughtfully designed home.

Situated in a prime location, this brownstone offers easy access to a vibrant array of restaurants, cafes, and cultural attractions. Stroll down Bergen Street to enjoy a coffee at any one of the numerous cafes, or head south to explore the Brooklyn Museum or Botanic Gardens. With the Nostrand LIRR Station and multiple subway lines (2, 3, 4, A, and C) nearby, you'll enjoy effortless transportation throughout Brooklyn and beyond.
