187 11th Street

On the sweetest block in Gowanus/Park Slope, this thoughtfully gut renovated 4-story plus basement, 18 ft wide, double-duplex home is ready for your family to move in, or to enjoy as a great investment.

Bright, sunny, and with separate entrances, each home has HVAC units and new floors, windows, and skylights, plus luxurious touches such as stone countertops and stainless appliances.

A neighborly front garden welcomes you into the garden/parlor level apartment through double doors under the stoop. The stunning open kitchen has a large marble-topped island, original brick hearth, and Subzero and Bosch appliances. With double skylights, the living space faces a wall of sliding doors, which open to the huge garden with lush plantings and a lovely shade pergola.

Stained glass accents and double closets add to the principal bedroom, connecting to a large en-suite bathroom, featuring a shower room with a vintage claw foot tub. Guests can also access the bath from the hall. Through the kitchen, the dry, full-height basement has a full sized LG washer and dryer, as well as all new mechanicals.

The parlor level has the original brick fireplace and new hardwood floors, with two additional bedrooms off a generous landing - perfect for a sitting area or office - and another large tiled bath.

Enter the upper duplex from the traditional stoop, through a large tiled foyer with a beautifully restored staircase. The sunny, open plan kitchen and living space has yet another exposed brick fireplace, stainless appliances including a dishwasher, and gleaming hardwood floors. This floor includes a large bedroom and full bath with tub and massage shower feature. On the top floor are two more bedrooms, an office/dressing room, and several large closets, one already plumbed for an additional bath, and another with a washer/dryer hookup.

On a leafy, quiet block very near the 9th Street F/G/D/N/R/W trains, all the amenities, restaurants and independent shops of 3rd, 4th and 5th Avenues, and a short distance to Whole Foods, Prospect Park and the Gowanus Expressway for a quick and easy commute.
