Two Houses in One — with PARKING! Buy with friends or family and live in the same building, or live in one unit and rent out the other for substantial income. This fully detached, two-family home (20 feet wide by 64 feet deep) has been completely and stylishly renovated. It's gorgeous and huge, offering over 4,900 sq. ft. across four floors. A private driveway with space for up to three cars means your parking woes are over. Plus, the home can easily be converted into a single-family residence.
The lower unit features 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and an enormous rec. room - big enough to learn how to ride a bike in! The primary bedroom, with ensuite bath, overlooks a beautiful backyard shaded by one of Brooklyn’s largest and lushest cherry blossom trees.
The upper unit offers 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a magical, charming attic with five dormers. The open living/dining/kitchen area spans 20 feet in width and includes twelve windows across three exposures, offering treetop views — it’s like living in a treehouse. This is an exceptional and unique space filled with superb natural light.
Each unit has its own private entrance and stoop. Both feature bright, spacious kitchens with ample storage, quartz countertops, and high-quality appliances. Additional luxurious touches include central heating and cooling, marble baths, in-unit washers and dryers, beautiful brass and glass light fixtures, new wide-plank wood flooring, a new roof, windows, and doors, and durable HardiPlank exterior siding that requires no maintenance.
Easy access to the restaurants, bars, and shops of Kensington and Windsor Terrace, including Carnival, Brancaccio’s, Hamilton’s, Jaew Thai, Steeplechase Coffee, Der Pioneer, Hinterlands, Serenity Cafe, Gilded Grape, Werkstatt, Lark, Wheated, Lofty Pigeon Books, and more. A short bike ride to the Parade Grounds (soccer, baseball), the Tennis Center, and Prospect Park. Conveniently near the F/G trains at Church Avenue.
