693 ST JOHNS PLACE
LIMESTONE TOWNHOUSE FOR SALE
4BR 3BA WASHER/DRYER DISHWASHER EAT-IN-KITCHEN PREWAR DETAIL OUTDOOR

LIL' WAINSCOTING
Tucked away on a naturally appealing block in Crown Heights sits this two-and-a-half story LIMESTONE SENSATION at 693 St Johns Place. Fall in love with this vibrant neighborhood and, this Summer, indulge in a few of Brooklyn's most notable destinations: The Brooklyn Children's Museum, The Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, and, our favorite, Prospect Park!

The parlor floor opens to a classic living area featuring northern exposure and will envelop you in warm double-height mahogany wainscoting, punctuated by a wall of built-in prewar, glass-front cabinetry to display your most prized mementos. The southern-facing room on the main floor is spacious and features a king-sized main bedroom with ensuite bath, double-closets, overhead storage, and is adorned by a turn-of-the-century decorative fireplace.

The top floor features an accommodating king-sized bedroom with amazing closet space, a 100+ year prewar fireplace, and direct access to a 2nd room, ideal as an office, den, or dressing room.

The charming kitchen is highlighted by porcelain-tiled floors, stainless steel appliances plus dishwasher, butcher block counter tops, open shelving, and a large pantry! The recreation room in the English basement features an open floor plan, and direct access to a 2nd bathroom where you'll find the full-sized washer and dryer. Equipped with radiant floor heat, the space is currently being used as a full-floor main suite.

Host guests comfortably in the super-cute north-facing garden while your eat-in-kitchen double as a staging area.

But, hey...if you don't like cooking, you'll love dining outside with direct access to over 1,500SF of outdoor space ready to be your oasis.

Or dine out at standout Crown Heights restaurants like Gueros, Barboncino, Crabby Shack, Chavela's, Dutch Boy Burger, Mayfield, The Crown Inn, Butter Scotch, Aita Trattoria, Cent'Anni, Borough, Cornbread Brooklyn, Hart, or our favorite: Cafe Rue Dix.

Trains: 2/3/4/5 - Franklin Av-Medgar Evers College; 'S' - Franklin Avenue Shuttle to Prospect Park at Park Place.

Get To Know Crown Heights:To the east of Brooklyn's most vibrant natural environment awaits one of its equally vital urban ones. In a way that only New York City can, the blossoming flowers of the Brooklyn Botanic Garden give way to the alluring architecture of Crown Heights. Reflecting years of changes in design preferences, Crown Heights is home to Renaissance Revival apartment buildings, neo-Federal row houses, Tudor-inspired freestanding houses, and about everything in between.
