Description

Enter through a wrought iron gate, past a secret garden to your own Private Paradise. Quietly nestled between Court and Smith streets near the border of Cobble Hill and Boerum Hill, at the center of everything, but hidden behind Brooklyn's hip and bustling world, is a rare house behind a house!

Leave your bikes next to the cherry tree and rose bushes and come into an open kitchen/living space designed for entertaining. Upstairs, find two bright bedrooms, ample closets and a full bath. On the lower level, is a flexible room with another full bath, more closets and floor to ceiling glass doors that lead to a private brick patio.

Built c. 1885, but updated for today, this sunny south-facing sanctuary is 25' wide and 21.5' deep on three floors and has more than 10 windows. Full of charm, it is in good condition with copper pipes, double sized washer dryer, hardwood floors, and your own boiler and water heater. You can move in as is, or create your own style here.

This stand alone house is part of a 3-unit, two building co-op on a very deep 25 x 126.8' lot. The low monthly maintenance of $657 is another plus. The cooperative aspect may lower what would be normal housing expenses. However, this oasis is for an owner occupant. It is only one block from the subway and minutes to Manhattan. You and your pets will love it here!

Photos are up! I hope full screen will also be up soon.
