Description

Rustic meets Modern In Gowanus: This rare and spectacular 20ft wide 2-family semi-detached townhouse is currently being used as a single family residence with 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms sitting on a 25x100ft lot with 3 window exposures all on a quiet tree-lined street in red hot Gowanus. Enter the property to immediately discover the rustic charm throughout and the large living/dining space with gorgeous wide-plank flooring, exposed brick, ornate open staircase and brilliant light from the wall of glass leading to the deck and sprawling backyard for grilling, gardening and outdoor living, plus OUTDOOR SHOWER. The current owner took great care in gut renovating the property less than 2 years ago with a careful eye for curating the space with artistic design and well-proportioned function. The expansive chef's kitchen has 2 breakfast bars, a chic farm style porcelain sink and is open to the entertaining space with white lacquer cabinetry, reclaimed wood shelving, Calcutta Carrera marble counter tops and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances including 6 burner Wolf gas Range, Jain Air refrigerator and Bosch oven. Head upstairs to find a proper master bedroom with en-suite bath overlooking lush tree tops plus an additional bedroom with brilliant blue bathroom, not mention vented washer/dryer. Downstairs find another 2 bedrooms plus beautifully tiled bathroom, treated concrete floors and additional access to the backyard. A seamless renovation upgraded the home with separately zoned central heating/air, TEN closets for storage, plus new electrical , plumbing, mechanicals and roof. Additional FAR left that can be used to build up and back. The location is top notch with close proximity to Whole Foods, amazing restaurants such as Bar Tano, Four and Twenty Blackbirds, Fletchers BBQ, coffee shops and art galleries, plus easy access to Prospect Park and F/G/R trains just a few blocks away.
