A rare find, this beautifully crafted home offers multi-level living at its best. A legal two family, used presently as a single family dwelling, features one-of-a-kind contemporary artistic elegance within a light filled 4 story completely renovated home. Warm and spacious, it is located right where you want to be, at the heart of Park Slope, steps away from the best of what the neighborhood is all about. Whether used as a set of double duplexes or simply as a comfortable 3-4 bedroom, 2 ½ bathroom, 2 living room home for your family alone, this house is on the market for the first time. Why settle for condo living; why not have your own 500 square foot deck and private back yard; why not reside in a finely designed home of your own that showcases rich, handsome materials and innovative craftsmanship? Gathering light from many directions, the gorgeous kitchen and adjoining dining area occupies its own floor and provides the cook with a thoughtful layout, the modern stainless-steel appliances (SubZero, Bosch, Thermador), the extensive wooden elements (maple cabinetry, oak flooring, mahogany built-ins), and the granite counters that elevate this house above the norm. Take your meal outdoors by sliding open the kitchen's glass doors and entering the adjoining spacious cedar deck. The top story is currently used as the master suite, but is in truth two bedrooms with adjoining pocket doors that allows for flexibility of use. It is graced by sunlight from both the north and south and through 5 windows and 2 skylights. It features built-in shelving, 2 closets and has a pocket-door divider to allow for flexible use. The bathroom is completely tiled, from floor to ceiling in aquatic blues and greens. The ground floor with 2 more skylights contains 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom. On this floor alone there are 5 closets. The woodwork featured in the entry, the staircases, the hallway and the living room is exquisite and quite unique, making it stand out and giving pride to ownership. The next floor down reveals a surprisingly large open area that serves as an additional living space. There is also a laundry room, a half bathroom and storage on this level besides a spacious mechanical room that contains 2 gas furnaces and 2 hot water heaters. The backyard is on this level and adds to the enjoyment of the house with its sheltering large tree beside a brick patio. Every window is new, energy efficient, insulated and double-paned. The façade features maintenance-free HardiBoard siding topped by Victorian cornice detailing. Situated near the best Park Slope has to offer, just 5 blocks to Prospect Park, 3 blocks to J.J. Byrne Park and Playground, 4 blocks to Whole Foods, and down the street from 5th Ave's restaurant row, with such favorites as Al di La, Blue Ribbon, Two Boots, Bricolage and much, much more.
