Description

This story book house is your dream come true! Super conveniently located in prime Boerum hill between Bergen and Wyckoff streets, it has all of the original charm, space, light, high ceilings, and outdoor living that you have been searching for, and needs no work! Located just one block from the best Smith Street and Atlantic Avenue subways and amenities, plus every main subway line just a quick walk away at Borough Hall. Wide plank floors, original plaster moldings, mahogany banisters, stunning marble mantles and a gorgeous brick facade await. An elegant mahogany center staircase artfully divides the floors while maximizing the width of every room. At the top of the stoop you will enter the open parlor floor to a lovely living room and modern kitchen that flows conveniently to your private landscaped deck and garden. Soapstone counters, custom wood cabinetry, Sub Zero Fridge, Jenn Air Range, Viking Hood and central AC are just some of its modern features. One flight up are two large bedrooms with every charming detail intact including intricate moldings and mantles. The top floor features a master suite with skylights that overlooks multiple gardens, offering serenity and light. A stunning master bathroom with Bisazza glass tiles and an oversized glass-enclosed shower leads into a spacious windowed dressing room tucked under the dormers of this charmer. The downstairs is a finished windowed English basement with a spacious laundry room, another full bath, and works great as a media room, home office, or a gracious guest suite with separate street entrance. This home is rare opportunity to live in one of Brooklyn's most charming and convenient locations at a reasonable price but with the flexible space, charm and autonomy not afforded in a condo. This is a must see to believe. Super low taxes too.
