Description

A fully modernized brick townhouse with park and garden views from EVERY room (and Manhattan skyline views from a dramatic roof terrace!) separate this special historic townhouse out from the crowd and make it a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Greenpoint buyer looking for peace and serenity in the big city. Located right on the beautiful McGolrick park with its array of delicious restaurants and popular shops, walking paths and dog runs, this 4 bed, 2.5 bath home has been designer renovated with only the highest quality materials throughout and the scale of the rooms need to be seen to be believed. You will enjoy every luxury imaginable including central heating and cooling, Nest Thermostats, Smart Home technology, all new windows and roof, and truly spectacular kitchen and baths against a historic backdrop of exposed brick, exposed beams, wide plank floors, high ceilings, and arched windows. Enter the main floor to a formal dining room, a dream chefs kitchen, a powder room, and a spacious living room that opens out to a peaceful garden. The kitchen is beyond your wildest dreams and includes a Bosch appliance package, custom wood cabinetry finished in subtle hues of green/gray and white, loads of pantry, counter, and closet space, Caesarstone countertops, and a stunning custom ceramic backsplash. Roll and Hill lighting completes the package. A custom oak and steel center staircase adds a sculptural element to this stunning home and takes you to the upper floors where you will enjoy four spacious bedrooms with park and garden views, extra high ceilings throughout, customized closets, and an LG washer and dryer. The master suite offers a glorious view of the treetops through an oversized arched window, a dressing area with multiple closets and a stunning bathroom with a double sink and oversized glass-enclosed shower. All of the bathrooms throughout the house have been outfitted with stunning Moroccan concrete tiles and marble accents, custom vanities with loads of storage, and a whimsical lighting collection that is both practical and beautiful. A finished basement with exposed beams and a glass door to the outside offers an additional opportunity for a home office and loads of storage. Entertain in your landscaped garden OR bring your guests to the dramatic finished rooftop where you can watch the sun set over Manhattan while enjoying the serenity of a park location. This is a special home not to be missed.
