Description

A piece of heaven on E. 4th St. Perched at the crossroads of Windsor Terrace and Kensington, on a coveted, bucolic block, this beautiful, fully renovated, turnkey single family home will delight you. From its lovely facade and large front porch to its large botanical backyard, prepare to swoon. Enter to find a sweet vestibule and foyer, complete with a hall closet. A double living room provides ample room to relax, entertain, and just be. The windowed, formal dining room is expansive in size and has both an original decorative window and a large window overlooking the beauty of the backyard. The windowed kitchen is simply a dream. Plentiful black soapstone counters with tons of painted blue/gray wood cabinetry, a pantry, and stainless appliances make cooking a dream. It also has a skylight and double glass doors with transoms to bring beautiful light in! These doors open to the back deck, that has a hard wired gas grill, and leads into the backyard which is a joyful space, beautifully landscaped and filled with perennials. Walk up the stairs to find a second skylight. The top floor boasts three bedrooms, each spacious. The primary bedroom has a wall of closets, three large bay windows, and easily accommodates a king size bed and more. Another bedroom has a huge walk-in closet, and currently features a day bed and a desk set up. The main spa bath is fully renovated with Kohler fixtures, has a rain shower, and has another skylight. The English basement has high ceilings and features a great recreation room with fabulous light. It also has a large laundry room, complete with a sink, a storage closet, and another full, renovated bath that is brand new. There is another room, off the recreation that can be used as an office or a bedroom, you decide. The mechanicals and bones of the home are in excellent shape and all were renovated, including electric and plumbing. The roof was done in 2020, the front facade was just repointed and repainted, the front stoop stairs and the porch slab are new. The front porch ceiling has tongue and groove wainscotting. There are also Evid speakers in the ceilings of the living room, dining room and kitchen - hardwired within a media closet. This home is superbly located on what neighborhood locals lovingly call "Halloween Block". It's a coveted location, and is near to all - shopping and eateries on Fort Hamilton Parkway and Church Avenue, including Hamilton's, Thai Farm Kitchen, Steeplechase Cafe; it's down the block from the Community Garden on E. 4th St., around the corner from the Windsor Terrace Library, 2.5 blocks blocks to the Greenwood Playground, and a short walk to Prospect Park. This is a wonderful home. Come take a look - you'll want to make it your own.
