This IS a Unicorn! A Downtown brick Cape Cod with a detached garage, and ancillary kitchen plus extra w/d area upstairs. The property is elegantly surrounded by a wrought iron fence with lovely scrolled double gate and professional gardens.
This Livengood/Murray renovation was designed with charm in mind while improving function and flow. The kitchen and downstairs bath were both enlarged. Adorned with custom cabinetry, quartz and lovely tile, the space feels like a breath of fresh air. Glorious hardwoods run throughout the home and the Living Room is grounded with a fireplace and flows easily into the eat-in kitchen. There are two bedrooms and one bathroom down and two bedrooms and 1 bath up. Both levels have W/D hookups and could be separated to accommodate roommates, extended family or even as a partial rental space. Upstairs you will be charmed by the custom built-in window seats with storage drawers for each bedroom. Professional landscaping with an irrigation system is an added bonus.
New Historic-approved windows, roof, and siding were installed. (This house sits in the Historic Overlay). For peace of mind, all HVAC units are brand new with mini-splits upstairs. In addition, the house was totally rewired.
Situated in the Brooklyn Arts District on a newly bricked street, you are within walking distance to The Half, Flytrap Brewery, Eagles Dare and more. You have to check this one out!
