234 Seeley Street

Magic happens when you least expect it. On the market for only the 3rd time since its beginnings over 100 years ago, this very special house has been lovingly cared for with an artist’s touch. Located on highly coveted Seeley Street, just steps from Prospect Park, this brick front Arts and Crafts house with meticulously preserved detail exudes charm inside and out. Sitting on a 150-ft lot with a lovely covered front porch, the deep and lush backyard is planted with fragrant perennials such as roses, peonies, and butterfly bushes. You even have your very own grape arbor. Inside, period detail such as original moldings, original clawfoot tub, and stunning original stained glass are dotted throughout the house and add character to the updated kitchens and baths. The house is currently used as a legal 2-family with a 2BR rental upstairs and a 1BR plus den in the downstairs owner’s duplex. Continue to use as is and collect high income or with the removal of a wall and kitchen, transform the house seamlessly and beautifully to a spacious single-family with 3 or 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, plus a sunny, oversized, semi-finished garden level floor with 8-ft ceilings that walks out onto the yard and brick patio from two exits. Half of this level is the open artists studio that can be finished to your taste and the other part is the finished den/office/guest room with custom built in cabinets, bamboo floors and half bath. Many updates such as roof, boiler, all windows, all appliances and, hot water heater, have all been replaced and updated within the last few years. The location cannot be beat: a five minute walk to everything in Windsor Terrace including the subway and the best of the dining scene -- Butterfunk Kitchen, Della and Le Paddock. A two minute stroll takes you into the park and Vanderbilt playground, the dog run at the Peninsula and of course, Uncle Louie G’s. We look forward to meeting you and showing you this jewel of a home.
