Introducing a one of a kind offering: 297 16th Street is a gorgeous 25’ wide two family townhouse with a completely unique layout, one residence in front of the other. This home has been meticulously crafted to ensure the utmost privacy for the homeowner and tenant. The primary residence has its own entrance and provides four levels of living. Upon entering, you first encounter the elevated, designer kitchen in an expansive open space. The kitchen boasts custom lacquer cabinets with brass fittings, Sub-Zero, Wolf and Bosch appliances, and a large farm sink in a gracious island. The Cesarstone Calacatta Nuvo countertops throughout the kitchen compliment the gleaming custom cabinets and brass fixtures. Step down to the living and dining space where a 13ft wall of steel encased glass windows and French doors allow the sunshine to stream in from the backyard. The 40 ft. by 25 ft. yard is freshly sodded and ready for your ideas! The polished concrete floor in the living area is a radiant heat source adding to the comfort of this space. A staircase takes you down to a media/playroom, also with a polished, radiant heated concrete floor, that is open to the living space above, allowing light to illuminate the space. There is also a full bath on this level.
Arrive at the second floor to find three bedrooms, two full baths, and a laundry room. One bedroom features a large walk-in closet as well as an en-suite bathroom with a luxurious rainfall shower-head and marble bath. Ascend to the master suite where light pours down from six skylights and floor-to-ceiling windows. The master suite is your own luxurious retreat, complete with a private cedar rooftop terrace. The master bedroom is doublewide and features a sitting room. The master bath is accessible through a walk in closet. Surrounded by gorgeous marble and lit by a large skylight is a soaking tub and a separate rainfall shower.
The rental exists as a separate house in the front of the building with its own entrance and two floors of living. The two bedrooms, one bath duplex layout with laundry room will provide an excellent income of over $45,000 annually, or act as the perfect in-law apartment. Located just off of 7th Avenue in prime South Slope, Prospect Park is just two short blocks away! Around the corner are myriad eateries along 5th and 7th avenues such as Talde, Fonda, and Hugo & Sons, gourmet markets, and an array of boutiques. The Park Slope Armory YMCA is a block away, and the F/G/R trains provide rapid transportation to anywhere in Manhattan or Brooklyn.
