Property Summary
Description
Enchanting one-of-a-kind Brownstone inspired by the graceful surroundings of Prospect Heights! 87 St. Marks Avenue is a stately 21-foot, two-family home offering five bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms in the owner's triplex as well as a well-appointed two bedroom, one bathroom rental apartment on the garden floor. This stylish brownstone sits on one the extra-deep lots that Prospect Heights is known for, measuring 116 feet. Up the main stoop is a double door entry to the elegant parlor floor, presenting a living room with soaring high ceilings, a grand marble fireplace, ornate plaster ceilings complete with a medallion, and oversized bay windows that shower the entire parlor in radiant, natural light. The open kitchen and dining area allows you to seamlessly entertain and features an open kitchen with a center island, cherry cabinets, granite countertops/backsplash, and double wall oven. From the kitchen you have direct access to the home's private garden oasis that features truly unique architecture. Paths wind through surrounded by luscious flowerbeds, seating areas are thoughtfully shaded by a tree canopy and connect a lovely blue stone patio dining area to enjoy with guests to a hidden seating area in the back where you can entertain, plant your green thumb, or simply have a cup of coffee and read a book. This is truly an enchanted garden where you can escape the city without leaving home. The ornate pre-war detailing continues to the upper levels of the triplex that consist of five generously-sized bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and an additional living space that features great light, a tree top view and is complete with it's own wet bar. Lastly, you can generate monthly income from the beautifully designed 2 bedroom garden apartment! Enter through the private double door entry from the front courtyard into the expansive living/dining area. The kitchen has been renovated and provides ample storage. Access to the backyard make this the ideal rental, home office, home school or a guest suite. 87 St. Mark's Avenue is ideally located with easy access to many sought after restaurants, including Sofreh, James, and Corner Delhi. Union Market is around the corner for provisions. You are also in proximity to Prospect Park, the Farmers Market at Grand Army Plaza, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens! Not to mention, easy access to the B/Q, ? and 4/5 trains makes any commute a breeze.
