Description

In a picturesque row, the Brownstone at No. 286 Sterling Place in Prospect Heights stands out amongst its mid-19th Century counterparts. The house is unique by every measure (20 X 65 X 150) and offers 4 levels plus a cellar. It splits into 2 units; a lower garden floor rental, and owners' upper triplex. The location is historic and nostalgic but it's also one of the Borough's coolest neighborhoods, landmarked in 2009. According to Robert B. Tierney, then LPC Chairman, "Prospect Heights is among the Borough's most distinguished, cohesive neighborhoods because of its architectural integrity and diversity." In excellent condition from the exterior to the interior, 286 has many significant historical features. Another plus is your very own Driveway with parking for two cars, a rare but welcomed commodity. Come take a peek! Upon entering the triple parlor you'll witness elaborate woodwork, 11 foot high ceilings, intricate plaster work, and original hardwood floors with beautifully decorated trim. Relish in the beauty or be wowed by the wooden pier Mirror and embellished crown molding! On the angled extension, a warm eat-in kitchen boasts a center island, stainless steel appliances, and granite counters. You'll love the comfy window seat, and deck out back. Sweet! Upstairs on the 3rd level there is one very large bedroom suite, a full bathroom with soaking tub and shower, multiple walk-in closets and a home office. Continue up to the 4th floor. This level offers 3 bedrooms, a mantel with a modern take, full bathroom, dedicated laundry room and plenty of closet space. Back downstairs, the garden rental offers generous space. A living room, dining room, Eat-in-Kitchen, and an outdoor patio all allow for great entertaining. The apartment has one bedroom and two bathrooms. The cellar offers additional storage, and a second washer-dryer. All mechanicals---including a 5 year old gas furnace--are in great working condition. The bottom three levels have central air conditioning. 286 Sterling is perfectly situated to enjoy all that Brooklyn, and New York City has to offer. With transit nearby, the commute to mid-town Manhattan is less than 30 minutes away. While at home you are surrounded by: world class Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Prospect Park, and Brooklyn's hottest restaurants: Fausto, Faun, Olmsted, Sofreh, Petite Patate, and LaLou's, to name a few. Take in a concert at Barclay's Center or enjoy dessert at The Social Brooklyn. 286 Sterling Place is a unique home in the perfect location for whatever may interest you. It even comes with private parking!!! This one has your name all over it! The house will be delivered vacant and sold "as is." At the seller's request, any potential purchaser must present a recent pre-approval
