Description

Finally an opportunity to live in Prospect Lefferts Gardens and enjoy the flexibility and affordability of a two-unit home that has been renovated from top to bottom with attention to the historic details in addition to every modern convenience. Currently configured as a spacious 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath owner?s duplex on two wide and deep floors that flow perfectly into a large garden, in addition to a large studio English basement rental that would bring in an estimated $2000/month in rental income. If you need more space, just open up the door and incorporate the rental back into the owner?s duplex for three floors of spacious living. All new heating and central AC, bleached oak floors, skylights, and mantles are just some of the treasures that await. Enjoy a front yard that gives you privacy from the street and bay windows in both the front and back of the home for guaranteed natural light no matter the season. You will be greeted by a generous mud room designed with stylish Moroccan tiles that leads into a loft-like main floor with high ceilings and the open plan kitchen and living area of your dreams. A chef?s kitchen with a suite of Bertazzoni appliances, generous white quartz countertops, an eating island, and loads of white wood cabinets for storage is the centerpiece of this floor. In the front is a wide living room flooded in South-facing light all day, and in the back is the perfect area for an oversized dining table. This floor is so large that it even allows for a guest bedroom or home office, in addition to a full-sized vented laundry area and stylish powder room. Head up the beautifully restored staircase and be awash in light from the oversized skylight above. A sizable master suite awaits, and includes not only a generous and light-filled bedroom, but also a home office area, AND a windowed dressing room and walk-in closet. The adjoining bathroom includes a luxurious free-standing tub, a glass-enclosed walk-in shower, double vanity and sinks, and the perfect combination of gray slate floors and rustic hand-made subway tiled walls. Two additional quiet bedrooms in the back on this floor share a full bathroom renovated in Classic New York Style with black and white hex floors and subway-tiled walls. The English basement will astound with its higher-than-normal ceilings, multiple windows, and a full kitchen and open space that makes a great income bearing apartment or extra living or guest space for the family. It has it's own extrance and garden access, should you choose to share. A brand-new kitchen complete with Frigidaire appliances completes the package. Enjoy the 2 and 5 subways station just a couple of blocks away on Sterling street, in addition to a host of exciting new restaurants, coffee shops, amenities and Prospect Park all within a stone?s throw. This bright and clean townhouse has every bell and whistle and will welcome you home with its perfect combination of warm history and modern luxuries.
