Description

Introducing this gut-renovated turn-of-the-century townhome
close to Whole Foods, Park Slope, Carroll Gardens, and exciting dining and
nightlife options. Charming details like exposed redbrick walls blend
seamlessly with modern fixtures and finishes.

Spanning three levels with a finished cellar and private
outdoor space, this stunning two-family property offers flexibility as an
income-producing investment, a multi-generational house, or a grand
single-family residence. Hardwood floors, sash windows, and central heating and
cooling with linear slot diffusers run throughout.

The 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom UPPER DUPLEX begins with a
floor-through open-plan living room, dining room, and kitchen with white oak
herringbone floors, abundant natural light, a powder room, and access to a
large deck leading down to a lush backyard.

The windowed kitchen boasts an eat-in waterfall island,
pristine stone countertops, custom cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, a wall-mounted
pot filler, a butler's pantry, and high-end stainless steel appliances.

Skylit stairs lead up to the top floor, which has three
bright bedrooms and a laundry closet with a stacked washer and dryer. The
primary suite overlooks the backyard and has huge closets, an endearing wall
niche, and a skylit en-suite bathroom with double sinks and a walk-in rainfall
shower. The owners unit has access to the finished cellar which has a powder room and is perfect as a potential playroom, den, fitness studio, and more.

The second bedroom has a large reach-in closet, while the
third bedroom has exposed brick walls and is perfect for use as a nursery or
home office. Both share a skylit full bathroom with a floating vanity, gorgeous
tilework, and a deep tub.

The 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom GARDEN RENTAL has a private
entrance, an open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space, and a washer and
dryer. The bedroom has huge closets and access to a partially covered patio.

Built in 1901, 228 7th Street features a deep
front yard, high stoop, and lovely redbrick fa ade. The home is moments from
restaurants, bars, cafes, and shops and is a few blocks from Washington Park
and Prospect Park. The R, F, and G subway lines allow for a simple commute to
Manhattan, Queens, and Greater Brooklyn.
