Welcome home to 185 East 31st Street, a beautifully renovated brick townhouse in the heart of Flatbush, Brooklyn. Currently configured as a 2-family home with a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom owner's duplex on the parlor and garden floors, and a second-floor 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom rental unit, making this a wonderful home and a fabulous investment property.

The sprawling owner's duplex was designed with every detail in mind. As you enter on the parlor floor, you are greeted by a welcoming foyer with a custom floor-to-ceiling coat closet. The massive great room features soaring 9'5" ceilings, gleaming wood floors, custom cabinetry and an enormous amount of space for multiple lounging and dining areas. The open chef's kitchen features two-tone cabinetry, quartz countertops, a large island, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances, including a French door refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave drawer, gas range, and wine cooler. The kitchen opens directly into the large dining area, with room to easily seat 12+ people. A stunning east-facing wall of glass doors from both the kitchen and dining areas brings in wonderful light throughout the day. Enjoy your morning coffee on the east-facing steel and Ipe wood deck directly off the kitchen and dining area.

French doors open from the great room to the parlor floor bedroom with oversized west-facing windows. It is currently used as a large home office and features a custom wall of built-ins with a queen-sized Murphy bed for guests. A full bathroom with a glass shower, skylight, marble floor, and marble-top vanity completes the parlor floor.

Head downstairs to the garden level, where the main sleeping quarters are located. The primary bedroom easily accommodates a king bed. A wall of custom storage ensures there's a place to store all your clothes and more. East-facing windows help you rise in the morning, and a glass door provides direct access to a back patio and the backyard. The en suite bathroom features crisp white subway tiles, marble floor, brass fixtures, a glass-enclosed shower, and marble-top vanity.

The second garden-level bedroom has two west-facing windows and an oversized custom closet. The family room lies between the two bedrooms, allowing for great separation of personal space. Walls of custom built-ins take care of all your storage needs. A washer and dryer are concealed in the custom storage. Another full bathroom is right off the family room. Beautiful exposed wood-beamed ceilings and wood floors accentuate the character and charm of the home. The garden level can also be accessed from the front of the house should you want direct access from outside.

The sunny backyard is accessed from the steel and Ipe wood deck off the east-facing glass wall in the kitchen and dining areas, as well as from the covered back patio outside the primary bedroom suite. The deep landscaped yard offers over 1000 square feet of space for dining, cooking, and lounging. The entire backyard is surrounded by modern cedar wood fencing, providing a stunning and private outdoor escape.

The upstairs railroad-style, floor-through rental unit is in great condition and features 3 bedrooms, a living room, dining room, renovated windowed bathroom, and a windowed kitchen. Beautiful moldings, tall 9'4" ceilings, built-ins, wood floors, and large windows with east and west exposures make this a magnificent income earner.
