Property Description
Kensington Jewel. This lovely single family home is filled with light, space and beauty. With five bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a finished basement hospitality suite, a shared driveway with a garage, plus a large backyard, you will be able to move right in and live large.
The front porch is spacious enough for a table and chairs and a porch swing! You'll enter to find sweet details and a lovely entry hallway/foyer that leads into the living room. The first floor has a great flow with a large open living and dining room with three exposures -- the light is fantastic here. Parquet floors, stained glass windows and additional prewar detailing fill these rooms with beauty. There is plenty of room to relax, entertain, dine and dwell well.
The handsome eat-in-kitchen was renovated just 3 years ago. It has a garden view window, granite counters, stainless appliances, and plentiful cabinet space. There is also a breakfast bar - with a built-in wine rack. Your inner chef will go wild here. The kitchen is easily accessed through the dining room or via the entry foyer/hallway - which also has a convenient and pretty, all white powder room. You can easily access the large backyard or the one-car garage from the kitchen.
On the second level you'll find three bedrooms - two of them are quite large and each can function as a primary bedroom. The back bedroom has a very pretty bay window and two exposures. A spacious grey and burgundy tiled full bath. with an extra large vanity and a tub with a separate shower is on this level.
The top floor has two incredibly charming large bedrooms. The wood floors are painted grey. There are two separate closets - one could even be used as an office or made into an additional bath, if desired. There is a large unfinished storage space as well, opposite the larger bedroom.
The entire house interior has been freshly painted and there are new designer lighting fixtures throughout. The basement is fully finished as a hospitality suite and is accessed via a side door and the kitchen. It has recessed lighting, and a black and white bath. The basement also houses the mechanicals. This house has central heating and cooling, the furnace is new, the electric has been upgraded, and the roof and the exterior were redone 6 years ago.
This beautiful home is located in Kensington. It's equidistant to the F/G lines and Q line. It's also just a couple of blocks to all the amenities on Cortelyou Road, in Ditmas - Natural Frontier Market, the Flatbush Food Co-op, and eateries such as Leah, Werkstatt, the Castello Plan, The Farm on Adderley, Cinco de Mayo, La Puerta Roja and more.
This will not last. Appointments must be scheduled to view. All open houses are via private appointment, made prior to the open house.
