This residence is currently set up as a 2-family with 2 duplexes and is classified as 2-family dwelling by the Department of Finance.
The upper duplex is gorgeous, bright and spacious. The second floor is an open space with a kitchen, dining area, living room with an office space in the alcove and a full bathroom. There is also a large bedroom with 3 windows in the extension that is currently used as a painting studio and 2 more large bedrooms on the top floor with a smaller guest bedroom and another full bathroom.
The lower duplex is uniquely beautiful with the parlor floor featuring high ceilings (11 feet) and oversized south-facing windows overlooking this beautiful prime block. This apartment's layout is open in a loft-like style, with a spacious open kitchen and dining/living area, a large windowed bathroom, and an extra-spacious bedroom with 2 large windows overlooking the quiet garden.
On the garden level, there are 2 more large bedrooms (one in the front + one in the extension), a spacious recreation room and another full bathroom. The quiet and lush garden has been designed and is paved with blue stones.
This property retains some charming authentic details such as original plasterwork, pocket doors, crown moldings and 5 decorative fireplaces. While the property has been well maintained over the years including renovated kitchen and bathrooms in 2018, buyers may want to install new windows, a new roof and electrical upgrades to install central AC and to exercise this property's full luxurious potential.
This unique brownstone is located on a prime landmarked brownstone block close to the A and C trains at Utica as well as many of Bedford Stuyvesant's most reputable hot spots: Saraghina, Lunatico, Peaches, Chez Eugene and L'Antagoniste to name a few.
