A seamless renovation upgraded the home with separately zoned central heating/air, TEN closets for storage, plus new electrical , plumbing, mechanicals and roof. Additional FAR left that can be used to build up and back. The location is top notch with close proximity to Whole Foods, amazing restaurants such as Bar Tano, Four and Twenty Blackbirds, Fletchers BBQ, coffee shops and art galleries, plus easy access to Prospect Park and F/G/R trains just a few blocks away.
