Description
Boasting 3 light-filled stories plus a finished basement, 241 Stratford...This classic Victorian home located in coveted Ditmas Park has been impeccably maintained and carefully renovated with modern-day conveniences. Set on a lovely tree-lined street, this single-family stunner exudes charm with original architectural details, wraparound porch, landscaped yard and inviting backyard patio. The private driveway leads to a detached garage that has been fully wired and is perfect for a studio or office.
Boasting 3 light-filled stories plus a finished basement, 241 Stratford combines the advantage and autonomy of a stand-alone house with benefits of city living. The elegant entry foyer, clad in rich oak wood with a built-in bench, stained glass windows, and a striking staircase, leads to the spacious double living room/great room. This welcoming space—a perfect backdrop for hosting guests or relaxing with loved ones—boasts an original oak mantle, tasteful built-in bookshelves, and oversized windows with western and southern exposures. Enjoy formal meals in the adjacent dining room, enriched by beautiful stained glass and hand-painted Moroccan tiles in the corner fireplace. The newly renovated, eat-in kitchen is a knockout, with huge picture windows overlooking the rear garden’s greenery and bringing in tons of light. Exquisite mosaic tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, painted exposed brick and generous cabinetry complete the chef’s quarters. The windowed powder room off the kitchen features Waterworks fixtures and the same mosaic tile as the kitchen floor. A glass door with swinging screen leads to the deck with stairs to the backyard.
Atop the main staircase are the comfortable sleeping quarters comprised of 4 spacious sunny bedrooms with ample closets and hardwood floors, plus a windowed full bath adorned with original subway tile and a deep, cast iron soaking tub. Perched on the third floor is large vaulted open space that is ideal as a kids’ hangout spot or home office and could easily serve as a peaceful master suite if you put in a full bath (plumbing exists directly below). A final highlight is the finished day-lit basement that can be recreation space and is excellent for storage.
This gem is truly a rare, prized offering in one of Brooklyn’s most special neighborhoods!
