Tucked behind a full front courtyard on a peaceful, tree-lined block, this impeccably gut-renovated single-family townhome is a rare blend of modern sophistication and timeless charm. From the moment you step through the double doors, you're greeted by soaring ceilings, natural light, and an open-concept parlor floor that exudes grace and style.
Every inch of this 2,400-square-foot home has been thoughtfully reimagined—from the wide-plank flooring to the sleek state-of-the-art security system and brand-new mechanicals. With dual-zone central heating and cooling, comfort comes standard, while custom lighting and designer finishes elevate the everyday.
The kitchen is a true showstopper: anchored by an 8-foot marble island, it's outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances including a six-burner range, wine fridge, dishwasher, warming oven, and a stunning amount of custom cabinetry. Host dinner parties overlooking the garden or step onto the upper deck, fully equipped with gas and electric grill hookups, and entertain alfresco in your private backyard oasis.
Downstairs, the finished English basement offers endless flexibility—think media lounge, home gym, art studio, or guest suite.
Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms await. The primary suite stuns with a custom walk-in closet and spa-inspired bath. A skylit marble guest bathroom and versatile front-facing room—perfect as a nursery, office, or guest space—complete the level with refined flair.
Located just moments from Prospect Park and the shops and cafes along Flatbush and Nostrand Avenues, with easy access to the 2, 5, Q and B trains, this home is the ultimate Brooklyn retreat—effortlessly cool, beautifully designed, and move-in ready.
