Description

A jewel on Diamond! This legal two-family house in the heart of Greenpoint has been renovated from top to bottom with thoughtful details. From the foyer, pocket doors lead to a generous living room, where light streams in to the triple-bay window with a built-in window seat. The formal dining room, with chair-rail and crown moldings, has oversized windows looking out onto the landscaped garden. The first floor has a full bath and a walk-in double closet. The well-designed kitchen features ample cabinets, granite counters and breakfast bar. Here you?ll access the beautiful garden, with a patio that provides plenty more space for entertaining. Enjoy your perennial garden year-round with long-established Japanese bayberry, peony, lilac, honeysuckle and hydrangeas. Upstairs, there are currently 2 large bedrooms with a walk-in dressing room between; the original layout had 3 bedrooms and can easily be converted back. The full bath with extra-large shower also features a skylight, one of two on this level. The finished basement has separate access and can be converted to a media room, oversized playroom or office. The mechanicals are in excellent condition, with upgraded electric, a newly resurfaced roof, and double-paned windows throughout, as well as split-system Mitsubishi ACs. Currently used as a single-family home, the utility systems are in place for easy conversion to two units. Lovely tree-lined Diamond Street is convenient to all that Greenpoint has to offer and is close to McGolrick and McCarren parks and the Nassau Avenue G train.
