    Windows on the Park! Welcome to this beautiful, sun-filled home located in a lovely park setting. Boasting an oversized lot with extra parking, this semi-detached home offers a unique and versatile layout with multiple skylights and east/west exposures. The open floorplan is flooded with natural light, thanks to the central stairway that allows the sunshine to flow freely throughout the home. This stunning upper duplex is currently configured as a two-bedroom, two and a half bath unit with a one-bedroom, one bath unit below, which includes access to the spacious English basement with high ceilings and seven windows. The ground level features solid, custom, multi-colored mahogany inlaid floors, hand-laid by the current owner who is only the third owner of the property. The intricate chessboard pattern in the front living room is sure to impress. Note: giant chess pieces are not included. This unique home has two-phased electric power, originally installed for use as a medical office. With minor modifications, it can be approved for use as a daycare facility. Situated on a 26.5ft x 150ft lot with a rear detached free-standing two car garage, the lot can easily accommodate additional vehicles. As you approach the front of the house, be sure to admire the breathtaking front garden, complete with a majestic Japanese Maple tree. The front porch is the ideal spot for a relaxing morning coffee, a leisurely lunch, or a romantic dinner while taking in the views of Prospect Park and the sounds of music from the Prospect Park Bandshell. On Sundays from April to October, you can also enjoy the world-famous Smorgasburg Prospect Park just a short distance from the house. This property boasts approximately 3,172 square feet of living space, spread out over three floors and an English basement. The total square footage breaks down as follows: floor one through three, 2,308 sq. ft. and English basement, 864 sq. ft.
