Description

This 4-story fully renovated 2-family townhouse in PRIME Prospect Heights is a timeless classic with everything in the right place, and situated on a gorgeous block with simply no rival in terms of convenience. Sitting pretty between Flatbush and Vanderbilt, this location offers easy access to Prospect park, a multitude of fine dining in every direction, subways at your doorstep, and truly one of the most magnificent tree-lined blocks in all the borough. Come home to a majestic brownstone that is pretty both inside, and out, set back from the street with a lovely front garden, in addition to a deck off the parlor floor kitchen and stairs that lead down to a lovely garden complete with bluestone patio in addition to a large garden area. Original historic details live comfortably amidst a modern renovation, offering the next owner an amazing opportunity to enjoy the comforts of central AC, a chef?s kitchen and spa bathrooms, while simultaneously enjoying the richness of the past. Head up the stoop to a light and airy parlor floor where you will be greeted by perfectly preserved arched doorways, plantation shutters, a Piers mirror, plaster ceiling medallions, picture rails, marble mantles, high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and stunning inlaid wood floors. Walls have been opened up on this floor to accommodate a spacious living room in front with South-facing views, a large dining area in the middle, and a fantastic chef?s kitchen in back off the spacious deck with garden views. The renovated kitchen is the perfect take on Danish modern design, offering incredible storage and space while also taking a stylish backseat to the glamour of the historic details. White-washed rift oak cabinetry and a large soapstone countertop and island are a study of restraint and practicality. There is a cabinet for everything, including open shelving on one side for display, and closed cabinetry on the other. Paneled appliances include a Sub-Zero fridge, vented Bertazzoni range, stacked tile backsplash, and soapstone work space beyond your wildest dreams. Plan to spend all of your time in this magnificent yet practical kitchen that serves all your cooking and hanging out needs. A dramatic staircase takes you upstairs to the large primary bedroom in back and a stunning oversized bedroom in front with three windows across that now lives as a home office and hang out room, or use it as a large bedroom. A windowed bathroom on this floor has been transformed into a spa-like space with a gleaming white floor mosaics and stacked tile walls, a glass enclosed shower, and a soaking tub with a view! This floor makes a magnificent primary suite offering a large and customized walk-through closet in between both bedrooms for privacy if you want to turn both bedrooms into a massive ensuite floor. The top floor offers two additional oversized bedrooms flooded with light all day long, and another windowed spa-like bath. All four bedrooms come complete with the original marble mantles, perfectly restored, a suite of modern designer lighting, and great closets. There are even updated and operable sinks with marble surrounds in the two top floor bedrooms! The garden level makes a fantastic one-bedroom apartment for some additional income, or just enjoy an additional floor of living space as do the current owners. A handsome kitchen renovation combined a suite of Heritage blue custom cabinetry with brass pulls, a Sub-Zero fridge, porcelain farm sink, Miele cooktop and a honed Quartz countertop. Situated cleverly in the center of the floor, this striking kitchen opens up to a large living space in front and a quiet and spacious bedroom in back. An additional sunroom is the perfect place to store all of your gardening tools. This wonderful home even has a clean and dry cellar perfect for additional storage. This is a rare opportunity to own a home with both style and soul. Renovated by its current owners with an eye towards style and comfort, the next owners can move right in and enjoy the fruits of their labor on a block that truly has no rival in terms of convenience and curb-appeal. Live in the middle of it all, but feel worlds away.
