Description

A rarity on the market, this gorgeous 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom family home feels like a private retreat despite being located just one mile from the bustling running trails and bike paths of Prospect Park. The fully renovated interior combines generous square footage with an abundance of outdoor space on either side. Luxurious design features include beautiful hardwood floors that run throughout the home on the top two upper levels, along with stylish, retro-inspired black and white tiling in the kitchen areas, stainless steel appliances, and bespoke custom cabinets. Constructed as a two-family homewith the option of converting to a three-familythe top floor alone takes in two bedrooms, as well as a spacious open living and dining area, a bathroom, and two large closets. A loft-like bedroom and bath sit one floor below, along with another full bath, and an even larger dining room that sits directly across from a well-appointed 150-square-foot kitchen, an open living room, and a big front deck overlooking the garden. On the main level, meanwhile, the options are endless. With two bedrooms in the back that face a tranquil garden area, as well as another kitchen and dining area that mirrors the layout of the floor above, this floor can be combined with the rest of the home and with a separate entrance, could be the perfect income producing rental. Downstairs, the basement offers unlimited potential with nearly 1,000 square feet of space that can easily be converted into a home gym, workshop, or play area. For additional storage, owners also have the added bonus of a separate one-car garage that sits at the end of a private, 90-foot driveway.

The B and Q express trains are accessible within a short walk, providing a 30-to-35-minute commute to Midtown Manhattan.
