Description

This house is truly special: It has been completely renovated inside and out from top to bottom. And the pictures dont lie: it is absolutely gorgeous. The bright and airy living, dining and kitchen spaces on the main floor are exquisite. A massive patio door opens from the kitchen to the deck and yard, suffusing the space with light. Original details like the hand-carved walnut newel post and top floor tin ceilings were rescued and restored. New, luxurious additions include marble bath tile and Carrara kitchen counters, herringbone tile backsplash, gorgeous glass and oil-rubbed bronze light fixtures, built-in shelving and closets, and ipe and cedar decks, all designed with great style. A convenient half-bath is tucked away near the stair on the main floor. On the top floor are three bedrooms, convertible home office or nursery, and a full spa-like bathroom with a double sink. There is a wonderful family room in the basement currently configured as an entertainment center and guest-sleeping area. The work was done by a boutique developer who also spared no expense on the infrastructure of the house: the plumbing and electrical systems are all brand new. Nest thermostats power two new high-efficiency furnaces with chillers that provide zoned central heat and cooling. The roof, skylight, windows and doors are also brand new. The house has been fully insulated to save energy. The exterior of the house has been re-sheathed in top-of-the-line cement board in the style of the original clapboard (no vinyl siding here!). The 100+ year-old cornice on the facade was restored and the porch rebuilt. Houses of this quality rarely come on the market. On the border between Kensington and Ditmas. A few minutes from the Q train (Cortelyou stop). Local restaurants/ cafes include The Farm on Adderley, Purple Yam, Sycamore, and Qathra. The Flatbush Food coop on Cortelyou is close by. Prospect Park is a short bike ride away. This house offers exceptional value for its price. Do not miss this one.

Kensington is a residential Brooklyn neighborhood bordered by Prospect Park to the north and the landmarked Green-Wood Cemetery to the west, with Ocean Parkway running through its center as one of the borough's signature tree-lined boulevards. The housing stock includes brick rowhouses, prewar co-op apartment buildings along Ocean Parkway and Coney Island Avenue, and detached Victorian homes on the side streets, served by the F and G trains at Fort Hamilton Parkway and Church Avenue. The B and Q express trains are accessible within a short walk, providing a 30-to-35-minute commute to Midtown Manhattan.
