Description

Available for the first time in two decades!! This charming, beautifully restored two-family brownstone located in Crown Heights North Historic District is the perfect home nestled on a beautiful block. This home was built and designed in 1909 by architect Frederick L. Hine, as one of eight row houses. This renaissance revival brownstone is full of charm and character. The home is 20' x 55' and sits on a 20' x 121' lot. Upon arrival you will notice the spacious beautiful front yard, then entering the residence foyer, you will notice original stained glass windows and woodwork. This brownstone is currently configured as a single family home and can easily be re-converted into a two-family home. Details include hardwood floors, 10' ceilings, multiple windows, which allow for southern and northern light exposure. The layout offers the options to utilize some of the rooms as a family room, den, or formal dining room. The current owners use the lower levels as an entertainment space, while all bedrooms and home offices are upstairs. The renovated windowed kitchen features original tin ceilings, limestone countertops, frosted glass and lacquered cabinets with stainless steel appliances that include a chef's grade Wolf oven, Fisher & Paykel refrigerator and dishwasher. Both bathrooms were renovated in 2021 and feature natural light from the skylight well, with porcelain lined showers, Grohe fixtures and Toto toilets, all with a crisp modern finish. The spacious backyard features a covered awning, and landscaped garden with Arborvitae hedges and lighting, perfect for entertaining day or night! The unfinished windowed basement also has front and backyard access and offers many opportunities to create a recreational room, workshop, or home gym. The home has forced air heating. Significant Architectural Features: Full height rounded bay; decorative spandrels, beltcourses, fluted pilasters; and recessed panels with medallions. Conveniently located near the 2/3 train line on Kingston or Nostrand Avenues, as well as the 4/5 train line at Franklin Avenue. Nearby is the Brooklyn Children's Museum, Brooklyn Museum and Library, Prospect Park and the Botanical Garden. Enjoy numerous shopping, dining, bars and cafes located on Kingston, Nostrand and Franklin Avenues. *The Interior has been virtually painted White
