    Architect-Designed Parkside Home in Williamsburg Welcome to elevated contemporary living in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. 137 Maspeth Ave is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously reimagined home, masterfully renovated from top to bottom by its architect-owner. Spread over three levels and measuring 1,552 square feet, this single family consists of three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a private garden and front yard with parking for two vehicles complete with electric car charger. First Level: Modern Living with Park Views Upon entry, you're greeted by oversized windows framing peaceful views of Cooper Park and bathing the space with natural light. Elegant oak herringbone floors set a sophisticated tone. A custom millwork wall unit and entry closet in the foyer offer both storage and display, ideal for showcasing art or collected objects. At the heart of the home is a stunning kitchen and center island by Reform, inspired by Scandinavian architect kitchens of the 1960s and adapted for contemporary life. Designed for true culinary performance, the kitchen includes deep corner pullouts, utensil organizers, and eco-friendly Cosentino Silestone countertops. Premium appliances include a built-in Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, Miele induction cooktop, KitchenAid wall oven/microwave combo, and a Bosch dishwasher. Garden: An Outdoor Sanctuary An oversized glass door and fixed panel create a seamless connection between the interior and the private garden—a serene outdoor space perfect for alfresco dining or summer gatherings. Surrounded by a horizontal wood privacy fence and mature trees, the garden features steel decking and concrete pavers for low-maintenance enjoyment. The garden is also accessible from the Lower Level. Second Level: Restful Retreats Ascend the bold yellow staircase to find two bedrooms and a full bath. The primary bedroom, originally two rooms combined, spans the entire width of the home and offers unobstructed park views. A second bedroom faces the garden and includes generous storage. Lower Level: Versatile and Light-Filled Flexible and functional, the Lower Level offers space to work, create, entertain, or host overnight guests. With front and rear access, it functions as a private suite or creative studio. A wall of south-facing glass brings in abundant light, while a second room provides a comfortable guest space complete with multiple closets and a full bath. Polished concrete floors and wood-beamed ceilings enhance the character of this adaptable level. Plus, a mechanical room that neatly conceals a stacked washer and dryer. Bathrooms: Spa-Like Finishes Both bathrooms are finished in luxurious Nasco stone and tile with Duravit and Kohler fixtures, modern vanities, and wall-mounted toilets, creating a clean, spa-like atmosphere.
