Generational Craftmanship
Impeccable. Stylish. Exquisite. These are just some words that will come to mind when you experience 498 Monroe Street.

To step inside this residence is to be transported into classic Brooklyn grandeur. And, to live here would be a New York City Dream come true.
Your amazement will start at the curb. This home's brownstone facade and cornice exude perfection--and perfection continues into this 20' x 40' home. Two decorative fireplaces and dynamic woodwork will draw your eye to every inch of the parlor floor through oversized doors, moldings draping the windows, wainscoting, and a grand staircase. Whether you love to entertain, need space to lounge, or desire more walls for your art collection, this open floorplan with a spacious living room, spacious kitchen, and neverending luxury is for you. Old-world charm and modernity effortlessly integrate inside the chef's kitchen which features granite countertops, gorgeous cabinetry, and a stainless steel appliance package. From the kitchen, you'll be able to access the serene garden, which will be the perfect setting for morning coffees and warm night ice teas. The good life can happen here.
The owner's unit is a 3-Bed, 2-Bath duplex, and each bedroom provides the flexibility to live as you please. The owner's bedroom has a generous floor plan for lounging and sleeping, and is complemented by a beautiful decorative fireplace--it is the perfect urban retreat. The two baths are both chic spaces, but the upstairs bath is special; it's a 5-piece spa-like bath with a shower and jacuzzi so you will always have options for getting ready and relaxing. In addition to two gorgeous floors, the owner also has access to an unfinished basement that is waiting for you to turn it into something special. The garden unit is a 2-Bed, 1-Bath simplex that is perfect for rental income or an in-law suite. The aesthetics in this unit are on par with the owner's; decorative fireplaces, exposed brick, and large windows create an ambiance that anyone would anticipate coming home to. Whether you're in the duplex or simplex, living here will be an experience to cherish.
