    What's special

    Welcome to 1960 East 21st Street, a one-family treasure located in the vibrant and growing community of Madison/Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn. Built in 1925, this classic two-story 8 room, 3BR/1.5BA home with finished basement sits on a 40 x 100 lot and has a stunning appearance. The interior of the home is sun-filled, spacious and filled with character. All rooms are freshly painted, the original hardwood floors are restored, and new lighting fixtures have been placed throughout. The updating process reveals so much of the home's original charm! Step into the bright and inviting living room designed with an oversized picture window, wood-burning fireplace and built-in shelves. Adjacent to this room is a spacious kitchen, large dining room, and separate cozy breakfast room - a great place to sit and gaze at the wonderful backyard. The charming and restored staircase leads to 3 bedrooms and one full bathroom on the second floor. Each bedroom has ample closet space, two oversized windows and tree-lined exposures of the property. There is also additional hallway storage. Additionally, there is a full finished basement with a half-bath, double closets, built-in cabinets and shelving, utility room, boiler room, and an additional huge walk-in storage room. When approaching, notice the crisp color contrasts of the original wide aluminum siding, newly white-painted trim, window frames and chimney, three new exterior doors, and vivid landscaping. In the rear, find an oversized 2-car garage and a wonderful fenced-in backyard ideal for entertaining and recreation. The owner spared no expense in improving the landscaping by removing and trimming trees, planting flowers, and shaping pathways. The neighborhood is serviced by the B, Q trains and local buses. The residence sits between the Kings Highway (Brighton express) & Avenue U subway stations and is a half-block away to the BM3 express bus stops on Avenue S or Avenue R. It is convenient to shopping, specialty grocery stores, schools, and just 20-30 minutes to Brighton Beach and Coney Island. Move-in ready!
