Description

Designed by Eli Fernald & Bretaigne Walliser of Fabr Studio + Workshop, rustic luxury is introduced to Sunset Park in the most distinctive way. This legal 2 family townhouse has been thoughtfully reconstructed and designed with character throughout. The beautiful facade makes a striking front on the block?s tree lined street with unique details that await just beyond the original, restored entry doors. Wide plank white oak wood floors greet you on the ground floor with reclaimed wood throughout the entire level. The kitchen, undoubtedly the main focal point of the home, features custom cabinetry, Wolf range, expansive marble-island, ample cabinet and counter space and a window wall with the garden serving as its backdrop. Just below the kitchen is the spacious, light-filled den with an adjacent laundry room and storage area. The parlor floor features original, custom entry doors with intricate detail and original hardwood floors with decorative inlay. From the high ceilings, crown moldings & custom windows, exposed brick and original tin ceiling ? every detail of the home was designed to modernize the interior while maintaining the original charm. Completing the level is the custom bath and walk-in closet. Up one level off of the original wooden staircase awaits 2.5 additional bedrooms plus a library hosting 14-foot ceilings. Three custom skylights ? one in the library, one over the staircase and the third in the full bath flood this level with natural light. Exposed wood beams, exposed brick, original pocket doors with antique hardware and windows throughout offer the luxurious living that the market has been missing. Additional features of the home include bespoke doors and hardware, Mitsubishi a/c & heating units throughout, NEST thermostat system, heated floors in all bathrooms and custom bluestone staircase. This splendid townhouse is set on one of the most picturesque blocks in all of Sunset Park just a half-block from the 36th Street subway station, and minutes away from the transportation hub of the Barclays Center via the express D train. Luxury living and convenience collide, as this stunning property is just two train stops from Manhattan.
