About This Home
ELEGANTLY RENOVATED, PRE-WAR GREEK REVIVAL CHARM.
A MULTI-FAM GEM IN PRIME BED-STUY.
A rare opportunity awaits in this beautifully preserved, tastefully updated multi-fam townhome that celebrates timeless design while providing every contemporary amenity. Meticulously renovated within the last decade, this classic Greek Revival residence combines incredible flexibility, convenient accessibility, and elegant city living. With three self-contained units and a spacious backyard, the home is ideal as a primary residence, a live-and-rent set-up, or a multi-generational manor.
OLD-WORLD DETAILS AND SOPHISTICATED INTERIORS
A stately redbrick facade, a deep front yard, and an arched entry door set the tone for the exquisite interiors within. Natural light spills through tall sash windows, accentuating beautiful hardwood floors with border inlays as well as old-world details like intricate ceiling medallions, French and pocket doors, regal crown molding, and decorative marble fireplaces. Soaring ceilings add a sense of grandeur, and a refined design aesthetic creates spaces that are modern, warm, and inviting.
GORGEOUS GARDEN DUPLEX
The sprawling garden duplex offers 3 spacious bedrooms and 2.5 luxurious bathrooms. On the upper level, a spacious living and dining room flows seamlessly into a windowed kitchen-perfect for grand entertaining, intimate gatherings, or tranquil mornings. The kitchen is a chef's delight, featuring a luxury stainless steel appliance package, marble countertops, custom shelves and drawers, and a stylish eat-in island. A chic powder room is easily accessible. All three bedrooms are on the lower level, which has the added convenience of a second entry point. The king-size primary suite includes abundant closet space and a spa en-suite with a marble double vanity and a walk-in rainfall shower. The second and third bedrooms share access to a pristine second bathroom with a clawfoot tub and rainfall shower head. Additional highlights include a large convertible cellar, a dedicated laundry area with a utility sink, and an expansive backyard.
