The house is situated on a beautiful tree-lined townhouse block, across from the historic, and soon-to-be revamped, Marcus Garvey Armory. This stunning brownstone spans 3,600 square feet with many of its original details intact. The 20’ wide house is a perfect opportunity to create your dream home. Currently, the house has four bedrooms and three full bathrooms but, as seen on the alternate floor plan, the possibilities to customize the space are endless.

The garden level has been renovated featuring a spacious living/dining with an open kitchen that has direct access to the enormous backyard. It also has a renovated full bathroom on this floor. The parlor level has high ceilings, a fireplace, original parquet floors, and beautiful woodwork surrounding the windows and doorways. Handsome french doors with a transom elegantly divide the space into front and back rooms.

The top two floors have high ceilings, picture rail moldings, and a mix of herringbone and mosaic parquet floors. Oversized windows create bright, cheery rooms with decorative fireplaces, arched doorways, and picture rail moldings. The bathrooms on each floor have been remodeled.

Ideal location adjacent to Stuyvesant Heights, and close to many amazing restaurants and bars. Frog, at one end of the block, has ambient outdoor seating and a great selection of wines. In the other direction, you can find the best coal oven pizza at Saraghina and delicious comfort food at Peaches. While you’re visiting, grab a coffee and browse the selection of books and records at Black Star Vinyl. You’ll be here in a flash if you catch the express A train. Don’t wait!
