Description

**Floor plan coming soon. This stunning three story two-family five bedroom brownstone in Stuyvesant Heights is a perfect blend of classic charm and modern luxury. Upon entering, you are greeted by the warmth of exposed brick walls and a beautiful, curved staircase that serves as the centerpiece of the foyer. The recently renovated kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring high-end appliances, sleek cabinetry, and ample counter space, ideal for entertaining or family gatherings. Expansive living and dining rooms offer an open, airy feel, highlighted by large windows that flood the space with natural light. The living area seamlessly transitions to a beautiful deck, perfect for outdoor dining or relaxing. This outdoor oasis is framed by a lush garden, trees providing shade and a touch of nature's beauty. Each of the five spacious bedrooms offers comfort and privacy, with plenty of room for family, guests, or a home office. The brownstone combines historic architectural details with contemporary finishes, making it a unique and inviting home. The owner's duplex connects directly to the basement from the interior of the home for the most convenient storage. The neighborhood offers a plethora of options for dining with Good Ol' Days around the corner and Early Yves Cafe directly next door for your delicious hot morning coffee or tea. Date night or girls/guys night out at Daphne's or enjoy a tasty dinner at Saraghina's (if you care for a beverage at the bar, ask the bartender to make a Francesco--Saraghina's secret signature drink). Trad Room's flavorful menu, playlist, and ambiance has been a favorite as well. Entering the rental unit you are greeted by a deep space where you can comfortably set up both a living room and dining area. This unique layout offers separate bedrooms, a washer dryer, and a designated outdoor terrace.
