About This Property

On a quiet tree-lined block, you will find this modern gem. This four story townhouse has been gut renovated down to the four walls - and an entire floor has been added on top - from top to bottom, with impeccable execution and style. Brooklyn-based Lyons Studio oversaw the complete overhaul of this home, down to the last exacting detail. This home is truly in move-in condition, with every element considered for you and done just as you would have done it yourself, a unique opportunity to own a turn of the century home, without any of the headaches that normally come with it. Everything has been put in place for you. The house is configured as a gracious and beautiful triplex home with four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, above a separate one-bedroom garden floor apartment. From the Italian mosaic entry tile, to the Sonos integrated speakers, from the heft of the nickel door hardware to the beauty of natural stone throughout, you will know when you walk through the door that this is someplace special. The home s parlor floor welcomes you into a gracious and open living room facing south over leafy 8th Street. The rear portion of this floor showcases an envy-inducing kitchen with graphic cement floor tile, custom cabinetry, stylishly integrated top of the line appliances, fully venting range hood, plus ample dining space. Just outside the french doors, you ll find a terrace, with plumbed gas line for your barbecue. Perfect for entertaining or quiet summer nights. Stairs lead from the terrace into a spacious and open yard. A beautifully finished powder room services this floor and a big closet sits off the living room. The second floor offers two spacious bedrooms with closets and another cozier bedroom. A beautifully finished bathroom on this floor features double sinks and a deep tub, plus high end fittings and fixtures and a classic style. You ll also find one of the house s most unique and special features, a true laundry room rivaling any you ll find in the burbs. With fully vented oversized laundry machines, a sink, a huge counter for folding and ample storage within for all the family s linens. The top floor of the house is a full master suite offering privacy, light and luxury. A spacious bedroom spans the full width of the house to the rear and a jaw-dropping bathroom spans the front. The master bathroom is the stuff dreams are made of, light marble throughout, a freestanding tub under south facing windows, a massive walk in shower, and radiant heated floors. And at the center of this top floor, you ll find tons of closet space plus a skylit office, nursery, dressing room. The choice is yours. The stair continues up to the roof, with endless potential. Skyline views and cooling breezes beckon and you ll have over 600 square feet of space to enjoy. The garden floor one bedroom rental unit presents an incredible opportunity for income, significantly defraying the cost of ownership. It can also serve as an spectacular guest apartment, but your guests will probably never leave as this unit is finished in similar style and quality as the triplex including AC. The home s cellar can be accessed by the triplex directly and provides copious additional storage. Situated in the heart of brownstone Brooklyn, and surrounded by parks, shopping, restaurants and transportation, this home offers both charm and convenience. Walking distance from Whole Foods, Royal Palms, The Bell House, Washington Park and truly countless other draws, this is Brooklyn living at its best.

The manager has listed the unit size as 1920 square feet.
