About This Home

As of September 2020

A little bit of heaven. This sweet fully detached one family home, located on a beautiful block in prime Kensington, on an oversized lot (20'x125'), will make your heart sing. From the red entry door into the sunroom, to the spacious living room, with its parquet floors, to the enchanting dining room with two exposures - complete with its original breakfront/china cabinet, to the to-die-for retro renovated eat-in-kitchen, to the fabulous oversized backyard: when you come in, you will know you are home. Let's talk specifics: this suburban style eat-in-kitchen with a huge silestone island counter and tons of cabinetry is 25' long. That's right. 25 feet long. Your diner booth seating has surrounding windows facing the extra deep yard (60' x 20'). When you venture outside there are many mature plantings, but plenty of room for grilling, play and relaxation. There is a windowed playhouse too, currently used as a garden shed. On the second floor, you'll find the master bedroom, that comfortably accommodates a king size bed, and an area for an office. It has three large windows, and almost a wall of closet space. There is a spacious second bedroom with two exposures. A renovated bathroom is on this level. The top floor has two additional bedrooms, one large enough to be a family room, the other with 2 exposures. The basement is full, with high ceilings, and the laundry is housed there. It's perfect for storage, or ready for you to finish to your taste. Mechanicals have been updated, with a brand new boiler and hot water heater. The location is superb. Down the block on Church Ave is a terrific retail corridor, the Carnival Market is at the corner, and the F/G trains are literally 1.5 blocks away. It's in close proximity to the Ft. Hamilton Pkwy Greenwood Cemetery entrance (perfect for long strolls); to the Greenwood Playground; and it's a short walk to Prospect Park. This one won't last. Contact me for an appointment to view.
