Cottage in the City! Come to Greenwood Heights, and enjoy this charming c.1910 two-story house with a surprisingly deep and verdant rear garden. Set up as a one-family, this house offers lots of possibilities. The main level is an open plan with hand-burnished wood floors and a wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen is outfitted with white custom cabinetry with glass uppers, white quartz countertops, a five-burner vented stove, an exposed brick chimney and glass sliding doors that lead onto a south-facing deck. There's a sleek full bath with step-in shower on this level. Upstairs are two bedrooms -- one front and one back -- a study/nursery and an oversized walk-in closet. A second full bath with tub is located here. The open basement is full ceiling height and houses laundry, yards of clean storage and access to the outside from both front and back. Bring your inner farmer to the garden! At 65-feet deep, it's large enough for vegetables, flowers, a patio, hammock, arbor -- and your family and friends to enjoy it all! The house is conveniently situated one block from the R train and several more to the D and N express, two blocks to the Fifth Ave. B63 bus, minutes from historic Greenwood Cemetery, and not far from the post office, a grocery store, Mama Tried pub & music venue, many other Fifth Avenue shops and cafes, AND bustling Industry City -- and Costco. More affordable than many coops and condos, with tremendous outdoor space, this Cottage in the City is a brilliant alternative.
