Upon entering the upper duplex, a welcoming foyer greets you through an oversized half-glass original entry door. The 42-foot-long parlor floor impresses with 10-foot ceilings, wide plank oak floors, and floor-to-ceiling windows flooding the space with natural light. At the rear of the parlor floor, you'll find a gourmet kitchen equipped with an island, custom cabinetry, marble countertops, and top-of-the-line appliances, including a six-burner Wolf stove, Bosch integrated refrigerator, integrated Bosch dishwasher, wine cooler, and a microwave drawer.
Upstairs, the south-facing primary bedroom overlooks the serene backyard garden and offers ample space with two large closets. The primary bath is luxuriously appointed with marble-tiled floors, aloe green ceramic wall tiles, a double vanity, and a glass-enclosed shower. This level also includes two additional bedrooms, a secondary bathroom, and a convenient washer/dryer closet.
The private basement, accessed via an interior staircase, features 7.5-foot ceilings, tile floors, and a half bathroom, making it ideal for a playroom or media den. The garden level houses a separate two-bedroom unit with in-unit laundry, perfect for rental income or as an in-law suite.
Located on a picturesque street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, this masterfully re-imagined townhouse is surrounded by local dining hotspots. You are moments away from great dining establishments such as Saraghina, L’Antagoniste, Passionfruit Coffee, and Peaches. Saratoga Park, with its new playground, is just moments away.
