Description

Located in the heart of Fort Greene's historic landmark district, this pre-war two-bedroom (convertible three) has every possible checklist requirement desired by a homeowner. Nestled in a distinguished brick townhouse with original Italianate splendor on a charming tree-lined block, this duplex home offers old-world charm, modern amenities, spacious interior and decked outdoor garden. One of 4 residences in a 22-foot wide townhouse, Residence 1 offers the best of boutique living. Boasting a newly renovated kitchen featuring the highest-end appliances, beautiful cabinetry, and spacious granite countertops, this entertaining kitchen offers plenty of space. The newly renovated bathroom has modern fixtures including an oversized stall shower. In addition to the gorgeous hardwood floors throughout, every window is new. While the bedrooms (both on the 1st floor) are abundantly spacious, there is no shortage of extra closet space. Fully equipped with ductless AC/Heat & radiator, there is a vented washer/dryer to boot. Unique to Residence 1 is an exclusive 900sqft backyard garden & an enormous basement. The garden is located off the primary bedroom, featuring a cedar deck and built-in seating. BBQ and enjoy outdoor entertaining every night-it's all yours. There is a direct staircase from the lower level media room/den which also has its own separate entrance to the garden. The lower-level Den is a large second living room featuring arched columns and high ceilings. A wall of deep closets lining the lower level is a closet lover's dreams. At approximately 500 square feet, the Den/2nd living room has truly been beautifully laid out so there's separation and privacy. The Den can be converted into a 3rd bedroom with the possibility of a second full bath added near the washer/dryer. The basement is superb for bike storage, gym equipment or even a dark room. This 4-unit coop is well-managed and maintained. Between the indoor sqft, outdoor space and basement storage, total living space is over a combined 1400 sqft. At the the corner of Lafayette Avenue & Adelphi Street, you're only one block from C & G trains and a quick stroll to Atlantic Avenue - and almost every other train line in Brooklyn (B, Q, 2, 3, 4, 5, D, N, R) as well as the LIRR. Enjoy a 2 block stroll to Fort Greene Park and an abundance of culture, the Brooklyn Academy of Music, nightlife, restaurants and bar scene for which Fort Greene is renowned. 154 Lafayette is approximately 10 minutes to Lower Manhattan. Pets welcomed.
