154 Lafayette Avenue #GARDEN

Here is your chance to own a beautiful pre-war 2 bedroom, 1 bath garden duplex boasting old-world charm, modern finishes, abundant storage, and a private decked backyard. Located in the heart of Fort Greene's historic landmark district, this 22-foot-wide brick townhouse with Italianate details sits on an iconic tree-lined street two blocks from the beloved Fort Greene Park. A private entry into the duplex opens into a spacious foyer complete with a large coat closet. A row of custom built-in bookshelves and an original, decorative fireplace line the exposed brick wall of the living room. The fully renovated open chef's kitchen features high-end, stainless-steel appliances, granite countertops, and custom cabinetry to store all your cooking and entertaining needs. Quiet and peaceful, both bedrooms face the backyard and have custom oversized closets. The primary bedroom leads out to the backyard where you will find a cedar deck, built-in seating, and plenty of space to relax or entertain. The fully renovated bathroom on this floor has modern fixtures and an oversized shower. Downstairs you will find a media room/den with high ceilings, original archways, a vented washer/dryer, and a row of deep closets lining one of the walls. This space can easily be converted to another bedroom with an additional bathroom located near the washer/dryer. There is also a large storage area adjacent to the media/room den which is perfect for bike storage, off-season dcor and clothes, or gym equipment. Recently gut-renovated, this apartment has hardwood floors, new windows, ductless A/C and heat, and custom millwork and cabinetry throughout. There is covered outdoor bike and stroller storage under the stoop as well. This 4-unit co-op is well managed and maintained and has very low maintenance fees. Only a few blocks from the C and G trains and a quick walk to Atlantic Ave/Barclays Center station, you can get just about anywhere you need to go in the city. Please note, there is a 5% flip tax payable by purchaser.
