Straddling Prospect Heights and Crown Heights, this beautifully renovated, single-family home is the very definition of majestic.

 

 A mere two blocks from Prospect Park, The Brooklyn Museum, and the Brooklyn Botanical Garden, the lot of 465 Saint John's Place clocks in at a rarefied 131-feet, and offers the ultimate in harmonious and modern living.

 

 As you enter up the classic stoop, note how the facade has been restored and preserved to keep its original details. The parlor level is open and bright. A whitewashed brick wall and blonde hardwood floors give the interior a distinctive Scandinavian vibe.   The living and dining area includes a sleek fireplace and flow directly into the open-plan kitchen. The chef's kitchen is styled with classic white cabinets and Caesarstone countertops, an ample island with a sink, and top-of-the-line appliances. A glass wall   faces an ample balcony, perfect for entertaining, and allows light to pour in as you take in your leafy and spa-like (more on that lovely detail, later) backyard.

 

 Head up the stairs to the top floor where three amply sized bedrooms welcome you after a long day. The spacious primary bedroom faces the back garden, giving you treetop views. There are abundant closets in addition to a classically appointed primary bathroom   suite, featuring dual sinks, gorgeous tiling, and an enormous shower enclosure with rain shower head. The other two bedrooms are also well-proportioned and a second-skylighted-full-bathroom completes this treetop sanctuary.

 

 The bottom two floors is where you can really let your creativity run free. The ground floor is open and features a fourth bedroom and lovely full-bathroom, as well as a washer and dryer. This level would be ideal as a guest suite, an ample home office, a family   room-you name it.

 

 The basement level is the last piece of this ideal lifestyle puzzle. Completely open and finished, make it your expansive home gym, recreation room, sound studio-it's all up to you. A door leads you out to your glorious outdoor retreat.

 

 Now back to that spa-like backyardnot only is this area bucolic and expansive-perfect for flowerbeds, vegetables, herbs, featuring a gorgeous tree that will host songbirds throughout the seasons-but it also includes a hot tub and a roomy, dry sauna to complete   that elusive, Scandinavian hygge everyone seeks. Why spend money on a spa day or a yoga retreat when you have it all right here at 465 St John's Place?

 

 With upgraded everything and AC and heating split systems throughout, this home will leave you wanting for nothing. In the heart of two of Brooklyn's most beautiful and historical neighborhoods, with endless choices for restaurants, shopping, and even subways,   why wait another minute to call this beauty "home"?
