About This Property

Welcome to 578 20th Street, an extraordinary, newly rebuilt fully detached single-family home on a 25' x 100' lot, where timeless design meets modern functionality. With 4 gracious bedrooms (3 with ensuite baths), 5.5 bathrooms, a private driveway for up to 3 cars, and expansive outdoor living-including a rooftop deck with an outdoor shower and a 25'-wide backyard-this home offers the best of Brooklyn living in a peaceful Windsor Terrace setting.

Thoughtfully redesigned and rebuilt from the ground up, the home measures 16' 8" wide by 53.5' deep and features a beautiful James Hardie Board facade, a welcoming center entrance, and a bluestone front patio-setting the tone for the refined elegance found throughout.

Step inside to discover a sun-filled main level with an open-concept living and dining area anchored by a stunning custom kitchen outfitted with micro shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a large center island. A picture window frames the expansive backyard, bringing the outdoors in and creating the perfect setting for entertaining or everyday living.

Throughout the home, enjoy 7" wide European white oak flooring that adds warmth and sophistication to every room.

On the second floor, two enormous bedrooms with excellent storage flank a thoughtfully designed and dedicated laundry room complete with a slop sink, folding counter, full closet, and custom cabinetry-turning a daily task into a moment of ease and luxury.

The top floor you will find your primary suite, featuring a large walk-in closet ready for customization and a spa-inspired bathroom with a double sink vanity, warm ambient lighting, an oversized walk-in shower, and Grohe fixtures, which are featured in all full bathrooms throughout the home. An additional bedroom and a separate full bath with a soaking tub complete this floor, offering ultimate versatility.

The garden-level recreation room includes a separate entrance and a full bathroom, making it the perfect guest suite, media room, gym, or multifunctional space with privacy and flexibility.

Other details include, Cassette-style ceiling-mounted Mitsubishi mini splits, solid wood interior doors, LED recessed lighting, two hot water heaters for enhanced efficiency, RING doorbell and keyless entry complete this rare offering.

And finally, retreat to your private rooftop deck, complete with an outdoor shower and sweeping views of Brooklyn-a perfect extension of the home's already impressive outdoor offerings.

Located on a quiet, tree-lined block near Green-Wood Cemetery's historic grounds and Prospect Park's endless green space, this home is also close to local favorites, top-rated schools, and convenient transit.

No detail has been overlooked in this completely rebuilt, fully detached gem-an elegant and functional home designed for modern Brooklyn living at its finest.
