About This Property

In a city where space is a true luxury, this exceptional six-bedroom (flexible up to nine sleep rooms) brownstone stands apart, offering expansive interiors, multiple living and entertaining areas, and a generous backyard and garden-a rare find in Brooklyn.

The parlor level welcomes you with soaring ceilings, sun-drenched bay windows, and beautifully preserved original fireplace mantels that reflect the home's timeless character. Hardwood floors run throughout a spacious and open layout, seamlessly connecting the living and dining areas to a thoughtfully designed chef's kitchen. Anchored by a large center island, the kitchen is equipped with professional-grade appliances-perfect for both everyday use and entertaining. Just beyond, a flexible bonus room-ideal as a den, office, or additional bedroom-offers access to a powder room and a staircase leading down to the lush backyard oasis.

On the garden level, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms, a spacious recreation room, ample storage, and a washer and dryer. The second floor features an impressive primary suite, filled with natural light including a massive walk-in closet measuring over 140 square feet, connecting you to an adjacent sitting room through convenient pocket doors-an extraordinary amenity for city living. The top floor offers even more versatility, with multiple rooms that can accommodate a home office, studio, or additional bedrooms-whatever your lifestyle demands.

Ideally located in Crown Heights, this residence is just moments from a wide range of neighborhood amenities and attractions. Enjoy easy access to the S, 2, 3, 4, 5, A and C subway lines, making travel throughout the borough and into Manhattan effortless. Local favorites are just around the corner, offering an array of dining and cultural experiences in one of Brooklyn's most dynamic neighborhoods.
