Description

Welcome to this classic Boerum Hill townhouse, an architectural gem nestled on a picturesque landmarked block. This stunning two-family brick residence boasts an impressive four stories, offering a remarkable 21 feet in width and an expansive 100-foot deep lot. Set back from the street, you'll discover a serene oasis in the heart of Brownstone Brooklyn.

Up the stoop and step inside to find high ceilings and beautiful hardwood floors that flow throughout the home. Currently configured as two spacious duplexes, this property features a welcoming parlor level with soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and exquisite moldings complemented by double marble fireplaces. A legal extension adds valuable additional space used as the kitchen on the parlor level. There is a half bathroom tucked away near the top of the stairs on the parlor level. A door off the dining room leads to a small deck that has been recently restored and a big backyard.

Down the stairs, you have access to a garden with the potential to create your own verdant retreat-a private sanctuary for relaxation and entertainment. The garden level was used as two bedrooms and an office that was part of the extension but has plenty of space to be reconfigured. The lower duplex includes a split system air conditioning, ensuring comfort during warmer months. And a new boiler was installed in 2024.

The third and fourth floor duplex is configured with four bedrooms or three bedrooms and office, depending on your use. It has a spacious living and dining room with treetop views. There is plenty of closet space throughout this sprawling home.

Located in the vibrant Boerum Hill neighborhood, you will enjoy access to some of the best restaurants, bars, caf s, and shops Brooklyn has to offer, including renowned favorites like Rucola and French Louie. Local favorites like Sahadi's, Trader Joe's and Fish Tales are nearby. There are two local weekend greenmarkets to visit. All major transportation lines are nearby connecting you effortlessly to the city for a quick commute. Plus there is an active block association that organizes both a major Halloween event and a big block party every year! This residence presents an exceptional opportunity for those looking to invest in a captivating property brimming with potential. Explore the dynamic lifestyle this prime location affords and envision making this distinctive townhouse your new home.
