This elegant four-story, two-family brownstone offers six bedrooms, four full bathrooms, two powder rooms, a spacious parlor deck, and a generous backyard garden. From the wide plank herringbone oak floors to the thoughtful layout, the home showcases thoughtful craftsmanship throughout.
Upon entering the owner’s five-bedroom, four-full-bath, two-half-bath triplex, you are welcomed by a striking foyer with an oversized, half-glass original entry door. The parlor floor unfolds with grandeur, 10-foot ceilings flood the space with natural light. The open living and dining area features custom built-ins and intricate molding, while the kitchen impresses with an island, custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink, and a full suite of Thermador appliances, including a microwave drawer. Beyond the kitchen, a set of full-glass double doors leads out to the deck, offering serene views of the backyard garden.
The upper levels house five bedrooms and four full baths. The primary suite overlooks the tranquil garden and boasts three windows, a cozy reading nook, and a spacious walk-through closet. The en-suite primary bath is a luxurious retreat with marble tile floors, a double vanity, a glass-enclosed rain shower, and a deep soaking tub. A second bedroom nearby can function as a home office or nursery, while the third floor accommodates three additional bedrooms, each bathed in natural light from overhead skylights, along with two more bathrooms.
Accessible by an interior staircase, the finished basement features tile flooring and a half bath, ideal for a playroom, media den, or artist studio. The separate garden-level one-bedroom unit offers flexible living options, whether as an income-generating property or an in-law suite.
Situated on a picturesque, tree-lined street at the border of Bedford-Stuyvesant and Clinton Hill, this thoughtfully reimagined townhouse is just moments from beloved dining spots like Pilar, StoneFruit, Hart’s, Golda, and Do or Dive. Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy nearby Von King Park, complete with a playground and basketball court. Commuting is convenient, with access to the A/C and G trains, the Halsey B26 bus, and JFK Airport just a short 20-minute drive away.
