    Rare Renovated 4.5-Bedroom, 2.5-Bath Townhouse with Private Garden in Prime Gowanus! Space, light, and tranquility meet in this lovingly renovated 2,100-square-foot townhouse triplex, ideally situated in vibrant Gowanus on the Park Slope border. Offering four bedrooms plus a dedicated home office, two-and-a-half baths, and a lush, south-facing private garden, 236 7th Street combines the charm of historic Brooklyn townhouse living with the comfort and convenience of a modern home. Located in one of Brooklyn's most exciting neighborhoods, Gowanus - hailed by The New York Times as the new "Seine in the City of Lights" - offers a dynamic mix of culture, creativity, and neighborhood charm. Behind its classic red-brick facade, this serene three-level residence features high ceilings, herringbone hardwood floors, skylights, and abundant natural light from southwest and northeast exposures and provides a rare sense of calm and privacy in the heart of Brooklyn. The gracious parlor level opens with a welcoming foyer leading to an expansive living and dining area, perfectly suited for both relaxed everyday living and effortless entertaining. At the heart of the home is a beautifully appointed chef's kitchen featuring a Thermador range, professional-grade vented hood, oversized refrigerator, dishwasher, beverage fridge, and generous pantry. Custom walnut and white cabinetry, elegant Royal Danby marble countertops, and an oversized center island offer exceptional storage, workspace, and gathering space. Just beyond the kitchen, a door opens directly onto a private terrace overlooking the mature garden with its beautiful lilac and Japanese maple trees - perfect for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying a quiet moment. A discreet powder room and decorative fireplace complete this level. The second floor features two generously proportioned bedrooms, a dedicated home office, and a spacious full bathroom with a deep soaking tub. A separate storage area houses a full-size washer and dryer, adding convenience to this thoughtfully designed floor. The flexible layout easily accommodates family, guests, and work-from-home needs. On the top floor, two additional bedrooms and a beautifully appointed bathroom with double vanity and deep soaking tub create an inviting and private retreat. Generous closet space provides ample room for the clothing enthusiast, while the bright, airy layout lends itself beautifully to a luxurious primary suite with separate sleeping, dressing, or sitting areas. Skylights, hardwood floors, and mini-split systems throughout enhance the home's year-round comfort. At the crossroads of Gowanus and Park Slope, the home is near Brooklyn's best restaurants, cafes, bars, and beloved neighborhood amenities. Whole Foods, Movement climbing gym, the Sunday farmers market, P.S. 118, P.S. 124, P.S. 39, and the Washington Park are all nearby.
