536 17th Street
Description
Enter into the first floor through the front-planted garden, throw off your shoes, and step into this gem of a home. A comfortable sitting room and dining room welcome you and showcases an original built-in hutch. Beyond is an open and renovated country kitchen with an original tin ceiling. The fabulous kitchen is well-appointed with an abundance of storage, plenty of counter space, and outfitted with GE profile stove and Bosch dishwasher. Deep blue cabinets contrast with white marble countertops for a distinctively refreshing country palette. From here, step out to your deep and lush garden - the perfect setting for lounging galore and backyard BBQ’s!
Make your way to the second floor, with a more formal entrance from the stoop, into the airy and open floor-through double parlor with soaring ceilings. Plenty of room here for that grand piano you’ve always dreamed of! Built-in bookshelves flank the sun-filled and airy living room and a built in desk makes for a convenient dedicated work-from-home space. A renovated bathroom with shower is also located on this floor. Step straight out to the south-facing spacious deck from the parlor floor for a seamless indoor/outdoor experience and enjoy a glass of wine or coffee al fresco.
The artful and impressive original wooden staircase leads to the third floor with 3 bedrooms and a full bath with laundry. The south-facing master bedroom affords a tranquil retreat with space for a sitting area or desk. A claw-foot tub and a conveniently-located new, stackable, ventless Bosch washer/dryer are located in the large renovated bathroom. Two additional bedrooms are set in the front.
The large and dry basement completes the picture of this irresistible home and allows for plenty of storage, room for a home gym, or wine cellar.
Thoughtful improvements that add to your creature comforts include split system A/C throughout as well as updated electric, plumbing, gas boiler, water heater, back windows, and floors. Original wide-plank pine floors are featured throughout, adding to the charm and warmth of this historic yet upgraded townhouse.
536 17th Street is conveniently located in the much sought-after part of Windsor Terrace, close to shops, restaurants and cafes such as the beloved Krupa, Poetica, Double Windsor, the subway, and other local amenities. Just a few strides to the entrance to Prospect Park.
Come see this turn-key and elegant gem of a home!
