You really can have it all! Live in an exceptionally designed one-of-a-kind contemporary single family house with floor to ceiling windows, four king-size bedrooms as well as an office--and all of the creature comforts you are craving. 492 Stratford Road was completely gut renovated down to the studs with all new groundwork and mechanicals. There is central air and radiant heat flooring throughout, a working fireplace in the center of the sprawling living area and custom windows on every side of the home. On the parlor floor you will be wowed by the loft-like open concept living area and your eyes will be drawn to the far wall which has floor-to-ceiling glass doors that seamlessly lead into the lush and inviting backyard. The formal dining-room is large enough for a table that seats 12. The gorgeous and sleek kitchen has the finest stainless steel appliances, including a Wolf stove, Subzero refrigerator and a built-in Milee espresso bar. There is also a convenient eat-in kitchen nook overlooking the garden--and a half bath down the hall. The backyard has a custom-crafted barbecue and bar area, a manicured garden for privacy, a grassy lawn for running around and a mesmerizing wall fountain that creates a calming atmosphere. Upstairs on the second floor are three king-sized bedrooms and two full baths. The primary bedroom suite is truly amazing with 20 foot ceilings, custom closets and a spa bathroom with a jacuzzi floating tub, a separate steam shower, and dual sinks. On the third floor you'll find another king size bedroom and full bath, a laundry area, as well as a bright and spacious office. The finished basement with windows is currently set up as an entertainment family room with a home gym. There is another half bath on this floor and lots of extra closets and storage space. All of this, located a quiet tree-lined block around the corner from the B& Q Express trains (25 minutes from Union Square) as well as Ditmas Park's bustling Cortelyou Road, bursting with culture and eclectic personality with renowned spots like Mimi's Hummus, Manchego and the Cortelyou Greenmarket.
