If you have been waiting for a truly unique and fully renovated piece of Brownstone Brooklyn, the wait is over. This home offers unrivaled pre-war delights, amazing light and oversized West-facing windows, and your very own private entrance into a fully renovated loft-like space on the most charming block in Boerum Hill near everything. Offered for the first time in almost 35 years, this is your chance to own a piece of history that can be used as a one-bedroom apartment, a pied-a-terre, or even a home office if you live nearby but need an extra space to work with great autonomy or spillover guest space. Situated in a 5-unit coop on the corner of Bergen and Hoyt Streets, in a picturesque historic townhouse, with its very own private entrance on Hoyt street, this getaway property feels like a cottage in the city.
Enter through a set of period and picturesque doors on Hoyt Street, once an enchanting storefront, into a wide space with high ceilings that has been perfectly divided into a dining room and kitchen area on one side, and a spacious living room on the other. Two loft spaces have been cleverly carved out of the high ceilings, one for sleeping and the other for storage. Or, if you would prefer a more traditional one-bedroom set up, the living room is easily separable with the easy addition of a wall, and the lofts can simply offer extra storage. The possibilities are endless! A brand-new kitchenette was just renovated and features a stainless fridge, Quartz countertops and backsplash, a deep undermount sink, white Shaker cabinetry, and a gas 5-burner Frigidaire range. The newly redone bathroom is a timeless classic that features the perfect combination of Calacatta Gold marble mosaics behind the sink, and classic white subway tiles in the tub/shower area. Chrome cross handle fixtures, Carrara marble-style floor tiles, a Toto toilet, and a spacious vanity cabinet with porcelain sink and mirrored medicine cabinet complete the picture.
Additional special features include oak floors, six spacious closets, two custom iron staircases leading to the loft spaces, and my personal favorite addition, two capacious window seats running along the oversized front windows. A welcoming garden in front offers privacy from the street, and an opportunity to indulge your green thumb. And if that isn't enough, don't miss the basement storage in the main building, and the opportunity to live in a well-maintained coop but your very own private entrance. This gem is a one-of-kind find just one block to Smith Street and Atlantic Avenues, with every subway line (F/G/A/C/2/3/4/5) and amenity at your doorstep, including fine dining at Rucola and French Louie, Trader Joe's, Sahadi's, Chelsea Piers, Bien Cuit, Los Paisanos, to name just a few of the nearby gems. And don't miss the low monthlies too! A true original and pet-friendly too. And if you need to commute to Manhattan, it is just a subway stop away. This home truly represents the best of all worlds. Washer/Dryers are also allowed to be installed and there are many closets that would easily accommodate its addition.
