Description

NEW TO MARKET! Live in Crown Heights in this delightful income-bearing home! The owners' duplex allows two garden-facing bedrooms, one and a half baths, a cheerful and well-appointed open kitchen with a huge amount of storage and a large open living room plan. Hand-finished white oak floors are lovely and durable; lots of other architectural details have been retained or embellished. The English basement currently houses a busy architecture firm and has the convenience of a bath and kitchenette, but it could easily be used as a recroom, play room or master suite. Rear and front gardens are lush and fruitful with all kinds of vegetables, as well as apple and pear trees, and blueberry, strawberry and blackberry bushes. Energy efficiency was greatly improved and heating costs lowered with spray-foam insulation and dense pack cellulose in the walls and ceilings. With two charming rentals above, this house has tremendous added value.
